This is a discussion on that clip you were talking about.

It's craziness. One side is denying their guy isn't fit to be in office (I honestly wonder who is running the show behind the curtain). OTOH, the other side is denying that their guy tried to steal an election by accusing the election was stolen. Neither of these guys are even fit to run for nomination let alone run for POTUS. It's truly embarrassing.

It all about greed for power.

I believe all law makers should have term limits.

Agree with you there. I'd included judges on that list.

I'm pro immigration. I'm not just let anybody apply for amnesty and hang for a years and maybe show up for a court case in a few years.

And our economy would crash. People don't want to do the jobs that illegals are doing.

Really? Then why did Tyson do a huge layoff then hire illegals?

You both are right.

I live in an area where farming is what runs the City. A farmer went to all the colleges within 50 miles. He posted help wanted adds for field workers. He offered them $1.00 over minimum wage to work in his fields. He didn't get a single applicant from those colleges. However, he received an overwhelming amount of applications from he Hispanics community. some were illegals and some were citizens. He hired the citizens.

Also, Tyson, along with a few other manufacturing plants, did layoff a large amount of their staff to hire the illegals. With illegals, they don't have to pay all the same taxes and benefits. In order to legal lay the people off, they had to reclassify all the positions.

You want to know what's ironic about that comment? The last 3 democrat presidents are attorneys and take a look at the political leanings of the judges in Trump's current cases.

It’s delusional not to think so.

Our economy would crash. Then people would really start complaining when prices would sky rocket because "white" or "legal" people would be doing the jobs that illegals are currently doing. It's simple math. When a company has to pay more to get a job done the customer will pay more for said product.

I guess you liked being locked down and Trump lying to us about the virus. The virus didn't disappear like he said it would.

Whoa, whoa, whoa... America is not just a land where only white people are allowed to work. Besides, Biden has already acclimated us to sky high prices for everything. Deport all illegals so they (Democrats) can't use their votes and let Americans build American products and fill American jobs. Furthermore, we need to stop pussyfooting with these oil producing countries dictating the high price of crude and we need to flood the market with our own oil at reduced prices and watch the rest of the world have to follow along. It's time we take back the control.

It looks like a lot less imported oil under Biden. I guess you want to tell Canada to get lost.
