It doesn't seem like you are looking for an honest discussion. A sentence saying that the number of immigrants went up is not proof of the claim you made that: "the Democratic party is the one that wants to let in US as…

He gave over $60 million to his own campaign and used his existing celebrity to get media coverage 24/7.
> Since the Democratic party is the one that wants to let in US as many illegal immigrants as possible I love to see your source on this one. I personally haven't seen this policy stance from any Democrats.
Trump was a billionaire, able to fund his own campaign, that hardly proves the power of the common man. Now, back in 2026, the richest person in the world has spent almost $500 million on helping Republicans in the…
I understand the point of politicians playing politics, but your accusation requires more than conjecture. I would love to see the ample evidence you reference. Otherwise, what I see are 3 public votes in 2001, 2005,…

Sorry, but I don't follow this analogy at all.
Sounds like what you mean is that whatever you define as "actual problems" should be solved? Naturally, you are doing your own virtue signalling by taking such a strong stance on such a simple ask.

If a person won’t even return your text messages, you don’t ask them to help you move.

I think most people would charitably interpret that "everybody" means at least a majority of people. That is what I questioned. I don't really view internet comments as "strategic" like you. I was simply clarifying that…

The same logic that has spent decades providing us with poorly planned preemptive attacks and an ever-growing military budget. Meanwhile, the quality-of-life for the citizens who pay for it continues to decline.
