@goat we're going to disagree. I don't consider allowing 2 million illegals in the country as pragmatic when the goal is 0.

Don't let good be the enemy of great.

@goat if the number was under 500k, I'd agree.

Twenty isn’t a leftist. Not even close. He’s not even an Aloha-style former conservative. He’s a legit hardcore right-winger. And he’s schooling you on logic, despite the fact that you’re the lawyer.

I have the same conservative positions I've had for decades. I haven't changed. MAGA has changed my party in a way that I very much dislike.

@goat lmao he takes every step possible to go after the right ask @snarlcakes

True story.  Twenty is a centrist and favors a shit ton of immigration. He was advocating for that terrible immigration bill back in 23 (I think it was that year).  And cough cough.... he loves Central Bankers.

 

 

hey, thinking crypto is weird doesn’t make one a devout fed loyalist.   

 


Watch your mouth

That bill was comical. Once we get past this number we will close the border. Well hell…if you’re able to close the border then why are we waiting for a certain threshold of illegal aliens before that occurs? The bill was not conservative

And then you have to ask, what does “not letting the perfect get in the way of the good” mean in this context. We keep hearing this is the best the Republicans will ever get. Who wanted to codify the number? Was that a compromise the Republicans were making to the Democrats?

@spartans9312 zero logic.  As much as the laws/regs matter so too did the messaging.  Trump’s words alone serve as a deterrent.  People self deport. Won’t try.

It was the definition of compromise for the sake of compromise and a stark reminder that for as much as Democrat's want to say fixing immigration requires changes in law, they have no interest in passing anything resembling rational immigration or asylum law.

@shooter it’s one thing to give out so much free cheese he fcks millions over with inflation. To jam electric shit down our throats. Etc. That’s just being the moron he is flanked by his administration of morons.  But to open the border knowing there was no way to vet who was coming through should be criminal and what Kirk said is spot on

 

You left out the billions in graft to his 'green new deal' allies....

I think CK was in effect saying what you and I believe....that what Biden did to this country would be criminal in any other context, and that he does have blood on his hands.  Punishment is what he "deserves".......but it's not a practical way to run a country, something I'm sure CK would have acknowledged if pressed on the comment.
