So this is where we're at as a country, the left has sided with the Houthis who've been attacking 'merican warships and other ships off their coast. And why are they suddenly siding with the Houthis; because it's not Sleepy Joe bombing them anymore, it's the Big Bad Orange Guy. It's not like the Houthis are just America's enemy, but since they're trying to shut down shipping in the Red Sea they're basically everybody's enemy. TDS to the max.

And not only are they pissed off that Trump bombed the Houthis, it's a Constitutional Crisis. At least when Clinton launched 400 cruise missiles into Iraq over not not cooperating with weapons inspections (vs trying to sink US ships and shut down shipping lanes) the GOP didn't call it a Constitutional Crisis, they called it a distraction tactic and did support attacking our enemies. And I thought the right had lost their minds over Clinton, but TDS & EDS is next level crazy.

Does it really matter? He was not here legally. That should be enough for you.

Again, do you even know who we are talking about? Not only was he here legally, but a court order said he was.
"Although Abrego Garcia was found removable, the immigration judge granted him withholding of removal to El Salvador in an order dated October 10,2019. Id"

Are you translating this chat into your native language and getting confused?

Oh no, subject change!!

Hmmm, the subject of interpreting things was brought up by you. I offered an example of someone interpreting things. That's a subject change? Long happy hour?

Hey if you are comfortable being a mindless bigot then more power to you.

Feel free to call me that. But be able to back it up with evidence.
Got any?

Glad to see you can read but still can't comprehend a damn thing.

No, you changed the subject. I would imagine it is yet another topic you want to argue about.

Evidence? You mean like your constant use of insults towards Trump supporters? Your hatred of Trump himself? Really? You "need" evidence?

Pissed Trump bombed the Houthis

Pissed that he is violating the COTUS, the 1973 War Act, the UN charter, in doing it.

Pissed Trump wants to stop the Ukraine shit

Pissed that he is siding with Putin, and asking Ukraine to surrender as a "peace" deal.

Pissed Trump wants to stop wasteful government spending

Pissed that he is doing it illegally, and making false claims about the efficacy.

Pissed Trump deported a person here illegally

Pissed that Trump is doing things illegally. He's POTUS, not Dear Leader.

Pissed Trump want America treated fairly in world trade

"Treated fairly", yet not one of you right-wingers can say what has be UNfair about trade.

What the hell is wrong with these people??

"These people" are smart enough to see through the bullshit that "you people" gobble up and swallow without a hint of critical thinking or due diligence.

How many of you actually think that by tanking the economy, he's making things "better"?
Possible the ******* stupidest premise I have heard in my life.

OK, legal expert: Explain how that means he was SUPPOSED to be deported.
Not a lot of words, so be precise in your explanation.
"the immigration judge granted him withholding of removal to El Salvador in an order dated October 10,2019"

No, you changed the subject. I would imagine it is yet another topic you want to argue about.

You talked about interpretation. I gave an example of interpretation.
That's a subject change? No wonder two-letter words confuse you.

Evidence? You mean like your constant use of insults towards Trump supporters? Your hatred of Trump himself? Really? You "need" evidence?

That's not bigotry.
bigotry - obstinate or unreasonable attachment to a belief, opinion, or faction, in particular prejudice against a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular group

There is nothing obstinate or unreasonable about my insults of Trump the racist, ******, convicted felon, ****** predator, or of the people who support a racist, ******, convicted felon, ****** predator.

No, you are pissed that he is the President.

So your ego is so big you would rather WW3 over peace. Got it.

"Treated fairly", yet not one of you right-wingers can say what has be UNfair about trade.

I actually did. When we are kind with 2 - 3% tariffs and the world ***** us with 50 - 80% tariffs.

"These people" are smart enough to see through the bullshit that "you people" gobble up and swallow without a hint of critical thinking or due diligence.

You people? What do you mean "you people?" I love how you think you are a brainiac and nobody else has brain cell one. You are such a smart person that you would rather live in a shit country than have Trump as president.

People want a weak dollar... if our dollar is strong places like China will suffer for it. China WILL cave first.

You dislike Trump voters. That is unreasonable to hate people just because they choose to exercise their right to vote for who they think is the best person for the job. You are bigoted towards them because they don't vote like you.

This trade war isn't going to make the dollar stronger. Cutting off big portions of worldwide trade does the opposite. The reason the dollar has continued to hold its value.....and the reason why it's the world reserve currency is because the United States it one of the largest purchasers in the world. This is likely to reduce the dollar value....and if things get really bad.....could end up supplanting the dollar as the world reserve currency. And when/if that happens? Well.....the debt becomes a giant issue if that happens.

Ok kid. The dollar has been losing value and it gets worse every time the US prints more money. $36T in debt. Reduce the debt and the dollar WILL gain.

Again....learning about basic economics rather than letting Newsmax tell you what to think will benefit you when you get out into the real world.

Oh.....and Trump isn't reducing the debt. Much like his 2017 tax cuts, his next round is going to increase the deficits to new heights....that is if the 25th amendment isn't invoked on President Mush Brains.

No, you are pissed that he is the President.

That's what is making him do all this illegal stuff? "Owning the libs"?

So your ego is so big you would rather WW3 over peace. Got it.

What does my ego have to do with Trump taking the side of Communism and trying to help it expand?
Are you saying it's egotistical to think people should have freedom? That Russia DESERVES to take over Ukraine with Communism?
Why are you such a fan of Communism? Because Trump told you to be?

No, you are pissed that he is the President.

I actually did. When we are kind with 2 - 3% tariffs and the world ***** us with 50 - 80% tariffs.

You think we have 2-3% import tariffs and the world has 50-80% import tariffs?
Before we go further, do you actually know what a tariff is? Explain it.
Then, please name a place that tariffs our goods at even 25%, much less 50-80%?

You people? What do you mean "you people?" I love how you think you are a brainiac and nobody else has brain cell one. You are such a smart person that you would rather live in a shit country than have Trump as president.

Yes. "You people". When you use "these people" to describe those against Trump, then "you people" gets used to describe those who support Trump.
Welcome to English 101.

People want a weak dollar... if our dollar is strong places like China will suffer for it. China WILL cave first.

People WANT a weak dollar? What idiots WANT a weak dollar other than Trump?
Do YOU want your dollar to have less purchasing power? That'd be pretty ******* moronic.

Yes, I'll listen to experts rather than President Amorphous Blob.
