    Let's cut to the chase. What the state dept. is doing is in no ways transparent to the American People or the Senate. In the last three years we have allowed illegal immigration across the border in the millions. So the "state dept." has found a way to bring in over 300,000 in addition to all this and there is no indication they are going to stop. These they're bringing in have two years to appear and review their case. The 10 million or better unvetted already have 7 years to appear. Let me ask you this, would it be better for you if we just dissolved our nation now and turned it over for the wold to divvy up and run as they see fit?

    So somehow you are blaming Trump? Holding a rally is off the table? Do you acknowledge any evidence that Pelosi and crew invigorated certain protestors to enter the Capitol?

    None of these things you said matter.

    Very simple question – does US government / State department has the power to issue legal status to foreigner or not? If the answer is yes, then all these foreigner Biden admin brought are legal immigrant.

    So the question I have for you – do you support legal immigration or not?

    So the question I have for you- since we already have over 10 million illegal invaders do you think it is a good idea to bring in 300 thousand more in secret? Should we just divvy up the nation as I suggested earlier? Would that make you satisfied?
    It doesn't really matter what you call them. The state dept. calls them "parolees".

    I gave you an answer. What you want is the answer you want to hear which you should annunciate.

    In the mean time, YOUR SIDE was guilty of attacking the Federal Court House in Seattle all summer. They tried to set it on fire night after night. That was as bad as what the Trump-bots did at the Capitol times two or three months. Yet I don’t hear one word out of you about that. Why not?

    No Labels Party! Time to flush the Republican and Democrat Parties down the toilet and rid all of us their bias, hatred, and control and power mongering.

    I just want the truth.... the one you don't want to tell.

    The truth is that the MAGA stormed the Capitol to prevent the certification of the vote to prevent Biden from becoming President, against the will of the people.

    That's the very definition of insurrection.

    Why should the Democratic Party pay because the Conservatives want a criminal like POTUS?

    Despite your contortion of reality, there is no liberal equivalent of Trump.

    WRONG!
    What happened in Seattle over that Summer wasn't even on the same planet.
    What Trump's Supporters tried to do on Jan.6th was Exponentially Worse (by Galactic Magnitudes).
    There is No Comparison (whatsoever)...

    Yep, wasn’t in the same planet because it was your revolutionary guard that was doing the rioting. Leftist violence is great, isn’t @Andrew Jackson? They are “freedom fighters.”

    It didn’t get the same coverage because the vandals didn’t succeed in setting the building on fire, and the progressive news media buried the story.

    Of course I’m blaming Trump. It’s the main reason why I didn’t want him to get the nomination.

    As for Pelosi, I wouldn’t put anything past her. As I have stated multiple times, when she was Speaker of the House, she was the worse person in government.

    Trump is getting the nomination. It is going to take a strong one to undo the damage of this administration! He only has four years. Just hope he can refrain from name calling
    and stick to his previous policies.

    Ageed. Names like "bird brain," "Little Marco" and "Ron DeSanctamonius" don't do Trump any good. We are not in a schoolyard.

    Trump needs to grow his base if he hopes to win. Biden is a disaster at the grocery store. That upsets a lot of women. Trump could win them over if he would cut out the schoolyard stuff and talk issues.

    He's winning the game now and I think he knows that. They have quite a few names for him and somehow no one gets upset but he needs to concentrate on just winning and implementing America 1st policies!

    There are no politicians running for the Office of the President of the United States worthy of the office. That makes them equal.

    No Labels Party! Dump the Democrats. Dump the Republicans. Find a party truly for the people because those two care nothing for the people.

    Yes, a very sick country. Many still believe the official narrative of 911, the official narrative of J6 and so much more. The sickness is largely dependent upon gullibility, people actually believing their government has their best interests at heart.

    Recent history has shown more and more folks don’t have a political party to call home regardless of the anti-Trump republicans. You can see this in the rise in independents over the years, especial since 2006 when independents made up 30% of the electorate, today they have risen to 42% of the electorate as both major parties have shrunk. I think the cause of this has been the quest of both major parties for ideological purity. First both major parties got rid of their unwanted ideological wing. The democrats their solid conservative south, the republicans their old Rockefeller liberal republican northeast. Had to believe today that once the south was solid democratic and the northeast most solid republican. Then beginning in the early 2000’s both major parties are now getting rid of their moderates, the pragmatist that once was the glue to making our two-party system work. Those willing to work across the aisle to compromise playing the old political game of give and take.


    Today, both major parties have a ton of litmus test that must be passed in order to belong. This quest for ideological purity is causing both to shrink to levels never before. Today Gallup lists Democrats as 30% of the electorate, republicans at 28%. That a far cry from an era when the democrats were known as the big tent party. As the GOP continues to more further right, the democrats further left in their search for ideological purity, more and more moderates, pragmatist will be fleeing them, left without a political home.
