Or that the article you're citing is lying, and he did open the borders, but also we should take their representations about his campaign at face value despite their lies? he ran on it, the article said he ran on it, and he DID open borders which is WHY THERE IS UNPRECEDENTED MIGRANTS!

Offthemat Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Lankford is not very conservative, his votes roil me more often than not. Biden campaigned saying he’d cease deportations for at least the first hundred days, conveying the message that he would be more open to illegals crossing and staying. He then ended “Remain in Mexico” and took the other 63 steps in Ohio Elite’s post of Johnson’s speech. Trump battled all the dims and half the Republicans, led by Ryan and O’Connell, and fueled by the hiliary collusion hoax. The bill Lankford is ‘negotiating’ brushes out to solve the illegal immigration problem the same way dims always try to solve it: just make the illegals legal. Problem solved. Yesterday, Mr. Johnson utilized dimocrat votes to add another ~1.5Trillion to the debt by expanding welfare to illegals. The economist Thomas Sowell warns us of a point of no return. He also likes to say that it doesn’t matter how smart or educated you are if you don’t stop and think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbrog Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 22 minutes ago, VakAttack said: Because the law in the area of immigration are incredibly complex, and often contradictory, due to administrations going back and forth. Part of this current bipartisan negotiation involves (according to the negotiators) streamlining the system. Great. And EOs in this area are extremely ineffective, as Trump found out. The law is too complex, contradictory, and ripe for multiple different challenges, which means nothing happens and the problem just sits there and worsens. Something passed by Congress and signed into law is MUCH more effective in general and especially in a circumstance like this. So the laws are so complex that we do nothing?? How is that the answer?? The whole "it's so complicated" crap is a copout and nothing but a political ploy. To me if "smart" people can't figure out what the laws say and how to enforce them then we shut the board down until we figure it out. Again, how is that complicated?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my point. There is a bipartisan coalition literally right now trying to do something, and the House, at the behest of Donald Trump, is killing it. 2 minutes ago, Offthemat said: Lankford is not very conservative, his votes roil me more often than not.

jross Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 (edited) Anything beyond stopping illegal immigration and fast-tracked return-home paths for those illegals who entered the USA is dead on arrival. Now, how many years of entry before 2023 do we want to deport illegals? 5 years? 8 years? At what cutoff will we grandfather birthright citizenship and end the misinterpreted policy? 2020?

Again, you're just fighting strawmen. My point is that they're killing the bill without having seen it, not that they have to agree to it sight unseen. However, I'm also pointing out that the reason they're vocally killing it is simply because Trump (and apparently they) are perfectly fine letting this get worse for actual American citizens to try to help Trump's electoral prospects. 5 minutes ago, Offthemat said: He’s a very confused fellow.

Where did they say what you're claiming? Trump, nor us conservatives, want to preserve the issue. We want Biden to shut the border down now, he doesn’t need a new law to do that. Biden and the dims want amnesty. Otherwise, they’d shut the border down to improve their electoral prospects. Listen to them. What they say, what they don’t answer, what they dance around. You are one of the main ones here that needs to “stop and think.” I just hope you hire out your detective work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mspart Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Biden is also on record saying he will close the border if the new bill passes IF the border gets overwhelmed. So why pass a new bill? Apparently the border is not overwhelmed now. He could close the border at any time by enforcing current law. He is being disingenuous. mspart 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only in your mind. Trump had the border under control. By any measure Biden has the border completely out of control. So anyone with logic can put 2 and 2 together and figure this out unless they don't want to. mspart 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
