What does 'cleaned up' look like to you? A resounding majority of the U.S. wants immigration tightened up and violent criminals who are here illegally deported. The current enforcement strategy is something only a small minority of Americans seem to get behind though. 

And it's a big deal that the President is grifting off the American tax paying public. You can worry about (at least) two things at once. 

@ohio-guy You're right.  A Harvard CAPS/Harris poll in the Fall found that 78% of all voters, including 69% of Dems, support deporting illegal immigrants who have committed additional crimes after their illegal entry.  It's the strong-armed tactics that are being employed that people are opposed to. 

There's a new video out of St. Peter MN of masked ICE agents in an unmarked car chasing down a woman driver at high speed after she had recorded ICE activity nearby.  After blocking the woman's car, multiple agents rushed out of their vehicle with guns drawn and pointed at the woman, ordering her to get out of the car.  She resisted, was taken into custody and released later that day.  Scenes like these are pissing people off, affecting public opinion of ICE and their operations, and understandably so.

@big-ryan Polls mean nothing. Plus “an additional crime” is beyond stupid. These people have not been vetted. The docket is already untenable.  All that matters is what actually happened. What actually happened is the Dems opened the boarder and now we have ten million new illegals who are unvetted. That’s reality. Not an alternate reality.

Oh and we already have 40 million ACTUAL citizens living in poverty.

I saw that video. It was chilling. That kind of law enforcement should have no place in America. And you're right - it's pissing people off. I think Trump will eventually go scorched earth on Kristi Noem and DHS because he doesn't enjoy being vilified. I bet he ends up throwing a bone to some people currently targeted by ICE - maybe he extends the TPS for the Haitians in Springfield, Ohio instead of sicking ICE on them - and Noem is relieved of her duties. 

I do think legacy is largely what drives Trump. That's why he's trying to build a giant arch in DC and the new White House Ballroom. It's also why he renamed the Kennedy Center in his honor. He thinks having his name plastered all over DC will make him a transcendent president like Washington, Lincoln, Kennedy and probably how Obama will be viewed. Left to its own devices, his legacy would largely be that of Johnson, Harding and Nixon. If he can get some people to acknowledge that he's not all bad by walking back some severely unpopular policies, then that helps his legacy building in his mind.

Polls mean nothing.

They seem to mean nothing, in your opinion, only when they show that you are full of shit. You should just STFU and let the grown-up smart people talk.

@shooter Polls aren’t policy moron.  You want to cite a thousand people?  Do any of them set policy?  Who gives a fck.  Dems opened the border. That’s real!   And I know you hate that being a beta wokee but that’s reality.  Actual Dem politicians aren’t enforcing.  They started sanctuary cities etc.  Stop pretending.

@ohio-guy 100% agree.   And you're right about legacy and its impact on Trump.  Other driving factors are adulation, trophies and money.

Listen, moron Murt.... You claim to know what Dems want and claim that they want to coddle criminal illegals, protect them, hide them, etc..  Polls show you to be (as usual) completely wrong. That matters. Now STFU and defer to the intelligent people.

@shooter Oh no no I’m telling you what Dems voted for.  I’m telling you what Dems actually wanted and voted for and enacted.  That’s reality. That’s what matters. Your polls mean nothing.  Talk is cheap.

There are only 2 dates that matter to Trump and his political activities:

April 30, 2011 - Obama dunks all over Trump at the WH Correspondents' Dinner

November 3, 2020 - Biden curb stomps Trump in Presidential election

@hurryinghoosiers 

Why do you lie?  What do you think you get out of it?  Do you work for the Dem party?  Do you believe people are as stupid as you?  You’ve seen the charts. You have been shown why the border exploded as a result of Dem policy.  What was that policy?  Cut wall funding, reverse Title 42, Remain in Mexico, and asylum agreements. If you didn’t agree with these policies why do you support the Dem party?

 

In an adult lifetime of following politics the most bizarre thing I’ve ever seen is the Demis who want to try a Jedi trick: Dems aren’t for open borders. Oh really then why did they open the borders. Dems aren’t for defund. Oh really then why did they defund?

It’s so low character. I have so much more respect for people who say yes we opened the border.  That’s what we want. Yea we defunded cops. We’d rather have social workers etc.  But to lie and pretend the policies don’t exist. Gross gross people vomit 🤮 

I don't lie.  You just can't handle the truth because you eat your propaganda like a good little simpleton.

yea right.  then why don't you get on pubs for trying to defund the fbi?  

dems didn't actually defund shit.  A few talked about it after the floyd incident but that's about it.  But it wasn't literally defunding anything.  It was the idea to reallocate funds to try to reduce tasks that are assigned to police that might be better served being handled by other people.  But your propaganda took the word defund and twisted it for their lies.  MAGA sheep bought it like candy.

@shooter Oh no no I’m telling you what Dems voted for.  

You know, you keep saying that, but is it possible that there are many Dems that didn't "vote for that".  Biden isn't exactly the most popular president, even amongst the Democrats.  They thought they were getting Obama 2.0 and Biden was not even Obama 0.5.

The Democrats were sold a bill of goods that turned out to be far below expectations.

Just like there are some of Trump's policies that you cringe at (cough cough tarrifs), there is middle ground here where Democrats can be against "open borders" and still "voted for that" not knowing it was going to be as bad as it was.

Hindsight and 20/20 whatnot.
