I thought you were my friend’: Immigration meltdown exposes GOP hostilities - Page 2

No one genuinely cares about us.

This is tea-party propaganda to shepherd herd-thinking. The alternative is voting for a Democrat or Progressive and the xenophobic bloc of Rep voters would first suffer a stroke before they'd vote for a progressive.

Well the Supreme Court certainly doesn't. Even with Kennedy, he voted against Obama with DAPA/EDACA persumbly because Obama didn't have the right to be nice to immigrants and then voted for Trump because apparently when it's a Republican president, he has the power to be unkind to immigrants.

At this point the best case scenario is for a big Democrat win in November to at least slow down Trump, then hope for a Democrat in the white house in 2020.

Then MAYBE get a couple of liberal justices when RBG and Thomas retire. They both may retire or uh, not be around before then though so who knows...

At the moment, we're fucked, but life is more than a moment.

Welcome to the shitshow.

Are all you guys still against the Bridge Act?

That sounds nice and all but how about democrats start to fight? How about they use the dreamer and kids still being separated crazy leverage to legislate? they dont do anything for us now! What makes you think they will help you once they are in power?.

But but but republicans are in power.

How do you see that passing?

Democrats might not all be genuine in regards to legalizing us but at least they have a obligation to legalize us. They still play on our team. They tried to negotiate with Trump and Republicans only to get the deal pulled on the 11th hour. Sure, I'm mad that they caved on the government shutdown but at least these fucker attempted a government shutdown. Some of you praise Republicans for starting the discharge petition but these fuckers couldn't even bring 25 Republicans to sign. Every Democrat signed on to the discharge petition. As far I'm concerned the less Republicans the better.

It makes no sense to be kissing the red ass here. This ass is constantly out trying to get us. They have hindered all relative progress for us through the decades. It’s stupid and idiotic to support the red terrorist Republicans because Democrats don’t “fight for us more” when it was them who had a bill came to trump and told him “hey we have a bill for you. Gives you more wall money than you asked in exchanges for regalizing dreamers” they did this multiple times. They were ready to negotiate with trump. What did trump do? He said fuck you democrats ( after earlier saying he liked the plan) give me my pillars in exchange for daca like program with no legalization. Wasn’t trump caught saying “I liked their bill and had everything I wanted but I want more”

some of you spent months here criticizing democrats because they held congress and the White House in 2010 and failed to pass DA ( reminder than it was 32 strong brave republicans who killed it )


Well what about now? Republicans alone had more than enough votes to pass something and they couldn’t agree with each other. While controlling every aspect of the USA government. What now?

In other words "Yeah they got our backs in 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 etc... and they show support for us on twitter!!"
