    Trump Administration Predictions

    The main point of government is improving our standard of living. It can do that by getting out of the way of the free market. However some services are necessarily provided by government. However, Pat Hartmann thinks the government should decide what we should buy.

    Trump Administration Predictions

    I noticed that you changed the subject when I challenged Trump's economic nationalism as lowering our standard of living. Immigration also improves our standard of living. Who do you think builds our houses and staffs our nursing homes.

    Trump Administration Predictions

    I don't understand your point here. Cheaper products from overseas have improved our standard of living. What objective should the government have other than improving our standard of living? Trump and the far left wing of the Republican Party have criticized Americans for being too...

    Trump Administration Predictions

    The government has incentivized the working poor not to marry. To change the incentives, we need to rethink the programs. With healthcare, we need to some sort of universal system, so as to prevent these incentives.

    Trump Administration Predictions

    I am not sure what you mean by "furnish support". There is nothing unusual about governors going to jail, four recent governors of Illinois have gone to jail, after being tried and convicted.

    Trump Administration Predictions

    Trump has been convicted of crimes in court. Sending him to jail is not a joke, but the normal outcome.

    Trump Administration Predictions

    It is so funny when the President threatens to send people to jail. The comedian-in-chief.

    Trump Administration Predictions

    I remember Trump leading chants of "lock her up" with regards to Hillary Clinton with regards to mishandling of classified information. So apparently Republicans do view such offenses as being as being serious. This of course of much less importance than Trump ignoring court orders and the...

    Trump Administration Predictions

    Biden, Obama & Bush all mixed up classified documents with personal documents. However, they cooperated with the National Archives and returned the documents. Accidentally taking something is not a crime. Trump refused to cooperate and lied about what he had. His authority to declassify ended...

    Trump Administration Predictions

    That is the reverse of the actual facts. His staff was preparing a list, but then Trump decided to just pardon everyone. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trumps-expansive-jan-6-pardons-last-minute-decision-rcna188628 I don't know why you keep on talking about Biden when asked about...

    Trump Administration Predictions

    Yes, Trump is giving pardons for those who give large "campaign contributions". This includes people committed serious crimes. A good example is Paul Walczak who committed a $10million fraud but was pardoned after $1million contribution. Are you claiming that Trump "accidentally" pardoned...

    Trump Administration Predictions

    I didn't notice any on 1/20/17. In any event, it is not relevant to Trump's pardons. The failure of some jurisdictions to effectively punish violent crime is not an excuse to not punish violent criminals.

    That is an interesting set of arguments. 1. Immigrants benefit the US economy. I suggest checking out https://www.cato.org/testimony/unlocking-americas-potential-how-immigration-fuels-economic-growth-our-competitive. 2. Your are arguing that immigrants by increasing their standard of living...

    Trump Administration Predictions

    I am trying to understand your position. It seems to be hard to pin down. Why exactly did you oppose the admission of refugees from Venezuela? You brought up the "toll of human trafficking" but the logical response to that would be to make it safer to come.

    Trump Administration Predictions

    Are you saying that Biden did things the people who voted for him wanted so they would vote for him again? Isn't that what an elected official is supposed to do.

    I am not following how "Biden used them as pawns". Could you explain?

    AccessBlaster was talking about "the toll of human trafficking". My argument for immigration is that immigrants strengthen the economy.

    Trump Administration Predictions

    As the number of American citizens killed was very small (immigrants commit murder at lower rates than the native born) the main toll were those killed coming to the US. That could have avoided by allowing refugees to come directly to the US. Is that the policy you favor? Do we count those who...
