After a DACA meeting in the Oval Office, Democrat Senator Dick Durbin ran over staffers and guards to find a microphone and tattle that President Trump used the word "shitholes" to refer to Haiti, El Salvatore and four African countries ... saying that we should also be encouraging immigration from Norway rather than from these failed countries. The libs then took these comments and morphed his scatology into referring to the PEOPLE in these outhouses ... expanding the country list into ALL of Africa. "For shame, for shame! Our president hates black and brown people and wants only white immigrants!" ... as always, counting on the gullibility of the American people. This, kind readers, is known as "racial politics" ... as played for the last fifty years almost exclusively by Democrats.
Trouble is ... Trump is not shameable. Since most liberals can know what Trump is thinking, I guess I can too. He is here arguing for merit-based immigration ... and taking immigrants from certain failed third-world countries BECAUSE THEY ARE FAILED makes no sense whatsoever. Such immigrants are very likely to become wards of our government ... as opposed to those from the developed world who are much more likely to contribute to our well-being. And I strongly suspect Trump would rather have a black math teacher from Haiti than a white street thug from Norway as a new immigrant.
Such comments, particularly if they are scatological can be easily demagogued into a racial slur ... which is exactly what many libs did ... CNN repeated the word "shitholes" 36 times in that evening's broadcasts. Does Trump care? Probably not .... as these media attacks are constant ... and seem to rum off Donald's back like water off a duck's. Perhaps, we might start calling Trump "Duck Donald" or even "Donald Duck" because of this ability easily to shed such rabid criticism? (Or, perhaps the above-titled warning?) And the Democrat media might even like it because they could take it as a slur ... when it is just the opposite.
Lot going on there. As you know I believe that if you have arranged your finances such that you are paying less than $1000 in taxes then you have no vote. So. If you come to the USA and can not pay $1000 in each of your first two years, then go home. Away. Whatever.
ReplyDeleteI think you have the right idea. My wife's dad had to sign a bond for his Polish cousin when he came to the US in the '50s ...guaranteeing he would be self-supporting. How times have changed!
DeleteChill, you would revoke the voting rights for many retired citizens and students along with the immigrants. What's your policy on refugees?
DeleteMy tax number is $100. Every adult or family should pay at least $100 in income taxes ... and since required, every legal adult would have the right to vote. Today about 50% of filers pay no income taxes, yet still vote ... a formula for disaster.
DeleteOK Den... Everyone over 60 can vote provided they can demonstrate that they can sing the first verse of America the Beautiful from memory. As for students.... meh, earn some money, pay some taxes. Refugees get an extra year for the head of household to pay up $1K as the taxpayer minimum.
DeleteGee, I feel like DJT. I just made up the complete solution. Where do I sign?
Peel the PC skin off a liberal and you'll find a conservative lurking within ...
DeleteOnce again you, Breitbart, and Trump have your heads in the sand:
ReplyDeleteAfrican immigrants are more educated than most — including people born in U.S.:

Fake news Ptofessor. The African countries mentioned in this article are quite different from those mentioned by Trump. And there is a huge difference between legal immigrants and refugees.
