The Russo-Ukrainian War Thread (FKA Political Thread)

What is Trump even campaigning on right now?

That immigrants are responsible for all the violent crime in the US

Ya I think they do these things for political points n photo ops. If they were serious about change they would oropose realistic n legal solutions that are bi partisan as opposed to political theater. You're being played imo, they do not care about you at all outside your vote n will.say anything to appear to be fighting for you, while actually doing nothing. It's a game

 

[Canadian Dragon]

Oh, I’m all for any reform that can make things safer for everyone involved and speed up the process in a way that isn’t detrimental to the process. Definitely have to make sure though that we are still doing things the way they do that is best for both the immigrants and the country as a whole.

I will say, though we do take in more legal immigrants than any other nation on earth, though.

Do you have a source for that last line? First I've ever heard this , so I'm curious

Someone just said he’s not campaigning on that this time.

Also, no one actually believes that.

I can definitely track it down. Last I heard we were taking somewhere between one and 2 million legal immigrants and most countries are taking about half that at most.

Already looked it up n it's not even close. Actually shocking that China n India r not in top.10

Even the most racist people online that I see talking about violent client will blame Black people more than they will be like 2% illegal immigrant population.

Conservatives also figured out 1st gen Hispanics have often hard Christian values n they can get their votes making them afraid of the gays and Trans . They doing the same thing with 1st gen Muslims here for example

The fear mongering also seemed to help them more on non-border states anyway. The staunchest conservatives I knew in east Texas never actually had that strong opinions on illegal immigrants, we've been around them all our lives for one. So just anecdotally, I can see why it wasn't a narrative that could last once people started thinking

For sure. Like, depending on which demographic you’re referring to Cubans, for example can be like some of the most conservative people on the planet. If Republicans could get out of their own way, they would lock up way more of the Latin vote, than they currently do.

I was going to say it, but then I refrained because I already knew that. Canada does have some really strict migration even for Americans.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

That’s why I always laugh when people would say especially celebrities that they were going to go to Canada. I was like good luck trying to get in lmao
