If Trump had kept his campaign promises this time..

[jacksonlamb]

I could compare them all day long,, a lie is a lie,,
because they didnt do what they said they would do I see it as the lowest form of lies,,

I can understand your simple mind having a problem with it,,

Yes, and you would be telling a lie.

34 CONVICTIONS FOR FELONIES SAY SO.

Billionaires on either side don't get punished for anything. How many democrats have been arrested for their dealings with Epstein?
Was Hillary prosecuted for anything?

Trump is no different. The democrats won't go after Bondi for not releasing the Epstein files.

 

[YoursTruly]

that would depend on what they lied about,,

voters/I do hold them accountable by voting,,

when you find a politician that doesnt lie you let me know..

If voting worked, they wouldn't let us do it.

You know what encourages illegal immigration the most? I mean really encourages them.


The $15hr they can make by coming here. The government has destroyed the value of our currency so much, that even though it's a poverty wage for us ($15hr), it's a gold mine to them. Many places in Mexico, S. American and others places, $5 to $10 per day is their normal wages.

Do the math. Say $8 per day for 30 days.... That's 240 a month.
They can make as much in 2 days here, as in a month in their own country.

If the tides were turned, between the US economy (wages) and Mexico, we'd be sneaking across their borders too. Because it would just as impossible to change our government & economy as it is for them.

you just made a leftist argument,,

I libertarian or far rightwinger would say pay should be what the owner is willing to pay,,

your argument also supporters deporting all illegals and putting the power back into the american workers hands because they wouldnt have cheap labor to compete with,,

what are you suggesting??

I can only think of one other option,,

What encourages illegal immigration is that they they are willing to do the jobs Americans won't do at any wage. Ask any large scale farmer.

Are you willing to pay an American worker more at the expense of all your goods costing more?

They still won't do the work.

Every prosperous country has a large immigrant labor force. You should see oil rich countries in the Middle East. They import millions and millions and millions of workers from the shittiest shitholes on the planet because they don't want to get their hands too dirty to spend all those bundles of cash they have coming in.

The reason we have so many illegals is because a-holes like the MAGA cult won't allow them to come here legally. They feed you this bogus line, "They need to go through the legal process" and then stop any attempts to reform that process. It's a bullshit meme.

A farmer is not allowed as many legal immigrant workers as he needs, so he has no choice but to hire illegals.

Every time someone tries to reform our quota system, the bigots infesting the GOP stop it.

The funny thing is, the biggest reformers have been Republicans. Marco Rubio for one. George W. Bush. When Eric Cantor tried, he was primaried out of office by the racists.

In this case, since Trump has lied so much & broken so many promises, his loyalist should be screaming bloody murder in his direction. On his truth social, Fox News, news max, Mark Levin & Shapiro etc etc.

This is a multi part problem. And there's no one solution.

I think I've mentioned this before. But if Trump has simply stuck with the things that got him elected, they wouldn't have to be redistricting so many states. Because things would be so much better, or getting there, that democrats would have very little reason to vote democrat.

Obviously, those with TDS, wouldn't vote Republican for any reason. But most folks don't have TDS. Not really.

As I keep saying, the only way a mountebank like Trump can lie to his rubes so prodigiously, so brazenly, so obviously is that he has to hold them in utter contempt and consider them to be idiots.

He must absolutely detest them like all con men despise their marks.

Why? The GOP has the trifecta.

When the dems have even a slight majority, they ram just about anything they want down the GOP's throat.
But we're supposed to negotiate and compromise with them when we have the majority?

Like how TF did Trumps RINO's allow a back door for minors and their gender surgeries to be funded by the government? And why TF did Trump sign that bill?

Do you really not know how government works?

If Trump had kept his campaign promises this time? Did he last term?​

These are results for trump's failed broken promises his first term
...
AI Overview

During his first term, Donald Trump did not fulfill several key 2016 campaign promises, including failing to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, not getting Mexico to pay for a border wall, and failing to eliminate the national debt, which actually increased. Additionally, he did not establish a commission on radical Islam or enact mandatory minimum sentences for illegal re-entry.

• Healthcare: Despite promising "better healthcare for less money," the administration failed to pass a replacement for the Affordable Care Act (ACA), leaving many without coverage.
• The Wall & Immigration: Trump did not secure funding from Mexico for the border wall, and failed to pass legislation for mandatory minimum sentences for illegal re-entry.
• Economic & Debt Promises: While vowing to eliminate the national debt, his budget and tax policies instead added trillions to it.
• Drain the Swamp: The promise to reduce the influence of special interests and lobbyists was not met, with critics arguing the administration favored corporations and the wealthy.
• Infrastructure: A promised major infrastructure investment package was not passed

Do you really not know how government works?

Stop playing. The government works in favor of the RINO's and democrats. Because they're the ones who make the rules in the house and senate.

This is why we need people like Massie to be house speaker and majority or minority leaders in the senate.

So lobbyist can't buy committee seats. So amendments can be introduced and voted on, on the house floor, without having to go through some lobbyist funded committee.
There's so many screwed up rules in both chambers. And so much more executive power than any president is supposed to wield.

This government runs on lies, corruption and greed. Mainly because of political loyalty and that bs "lesser of two evils" excuse that both sides bring up.

Trump doesn't care about MAGA or America 1st. Or the independents.

And his loyalist don't care that Trump doesn't care (about them)

In 2016, Trump swept into office on a wave of bigotry toward Mexicans and Muslims, and a promise to immediately repeal and replace Obamacare.

In one of so many ironies, Trump claimed "they bring crime" and "they're rapists". Said the criminal who is also a rapist.

Barack Obama promised to overhaul the health care system which had been skyrocketing in cost for decades before he came along for which the Republicans had done NOTHING about.

Well, not quite. Dubya added a whole new government entitlement which added about a trillion dollars more to our debt by that time.

Of course, this huge expense was possible only because Bush and the fiscially responsible (snicker) Republicans allowed the PAYGO law to expire on his watch. That would have required them to cut spending or raise taxes to pay for their massive new government entitlement program.

But anyway...

Obama put a plan on the table. He had the balls to allow his opponents to tear into it and make up lies about it. "Death panels", anyone?

Trump doesn't have balls. Nor do he and the lickspittles of his in Congress have the intelligence to come up with a plan.

"Repeal and Replace" was a hoax on the rubes, and they don't even have the courage to admit to themselves how easily that hoax was perpetrated on them. They aren't even upset about it, and for reasons known only to God, they still worship the lying piece of shit.

"Pat no attention to the man behind the curtain!"

In this case, since Trump has lied so much & broken so many promises, his loyalist should be screaming bloody murder in his direction.

That would first require them to admit they are the dumbest, most credulous morons ever taken in by a con man.

They haven't that kind of integrity.
