'Openly Admitting': Critics Rip Trump For 'Dehumanizing' Sunday Night Announcement

Free market wage without illegals. It will be much higher for low I come workers.
If we have no illegals, we would have to let the same number in legally or the economy would crash.

You cant remove 11 million workers from an economy that is at full employment without crashing it.

And if you crash the economy low income workers will suffer most.

Think it through.
 
It is a market issue, not a fault issue. When you add something to the market in terms of lower labor costs, it effects the labor expectations for everyone. This wasn't an assignment of blame, rather a fact to acknowledge.


Markets, when fair, are spectacular capitalism. Markets when plagued by fat thumbs unbalancing the scale (aka cheating) aren’t actually markets. Corporatists have had their fat thumbs on labors scales since the 70’s.

So,if the corporatists are cheating by encouraging the illegal and/or cheap labor, shouldn’t that unfair cheating be stopped?

I’d have it stopped.

I have no problem managing our borders.

I just hate the absolute hypocrisy going on. ALL sides of it.
 
If you want them all legal that
is open border.

That's not what that means at all.

I want them to be able to come here and expeditiously be given legal status through a process. That isn't the same thing as simply allowing them to cross the border and deeming them good upon arrival.

The wages MIGHT be higher, but so too will be the workload expectation.

See, hiring an illegal at slave wages works because they have no legal recourse. An American isn't going to do the job for the same wage, and so the stipulation for the increased wages is going to be increased work output, which essentially takes you right back to it being damn near the same slave wage it was on and hour for hour basis.

Only making 1.2% above inflation isn't eally going to improve anything for anyone over time, and given that businesses are seeing growth 10 to 20 times higher than that in some sectors, you have to ask why that is the case.
 
Critics are calling out President Donald Trump for a divisive Sunday night announcement that law enforcement would target migrants in cities at “the core of the Democrat Power Center.”

“These, and other such Cities, are the core of the Democrat Power Center, where they use Illegal Aliens to expand their Voter Base, cheat in Elections, and grow the Welfare State, robbing good paying Jobs and Benefits from Hardworking American Citizens,” Trump claimed. “These Radical Left Democrats are sick of mind, hate our Country, and actually want to destroy our Inner Cities — And they are doing a good job of it! There is something wrong with them.”

The lie the right loves to tell each other, they use illegal aliens to expand their voter base...Trump supporters, undocumented folks can't vote, so why do you guys keep repeating this lie? I have to show I'm registered to vote, do you?

The man lies constantly and y'all support him. Why don't y'all get together to stop him from stealing?

What really stands out to me is the change in rhetoric. It wasn't too long ago that I read that they are going after the worst criminals. Now it's only "Illegal Aliens".
I suppose most of those who don't drink the felon's cool aid were right.
 
People who want to win elections.



More mind reading and more gaslighting. Got it. You literally sound like you are reading hypnotic induction.

"You are not experiencing anything at all like Trump describes....."

:ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

That line is literal gaslighting.

"You are not being abused, you fell down the stair and hit your head so hard you forgot...."

Insane.

So why don’t you ever tell us what exactly the big city democrats have done that directly touched your life. You just repeat what Trump says. He appears to be your gatekeeper for reality. You agree with everything he says reflexively.

I didn’t say you fell down the stairs and hit your head. I said that you are not experiencing what Trump says is happening and I know this because Trump is making it up. And his followers believe everything he says so he must be their gatekeeper on what they should believe is happening. None of them ever give any evidence that they experience it, they just parrot Trump’s fabrications.
 
Sounds like more gate keeping.

People have their own agency and their own criteria for determining how to use it.

They don't need your criteria or your permission.

Sounds more like you have beliefs about places you have no experience or actual evidence of. Just because Trump says so. Trump is your gatekeeper. Som You must need his criteria and permission to think something as you never disagree with his false claims.

It's still better than a low paying job.

It looks like a very long time to get to that situation so the market would adjust it's not going to happen overnight anyway
 
These Radical Left Democrats are sick of mind, hate our Country, and actually want to destroy our Inner Cities — And they are doing a good job of it! There is something wrong with them.- Donald Trump

People vote what they see and hear, not what the pundits gaslight them about the state of our cities.
Hilarious but true people do vote for what they hear and tell us if you would, what is trump's message to america's citizens? So tell us, what cities have been destroyed by the radical left? I saw a picture of LA this morning and it has miraculously risen from the ashes overnight.
 
What I "think" I am seeing. You realize that lots of people live in these areas. They aren't imagining their own lives. Those of us that visit and frequent these cities are not imagining it either.

How ridiculous are Democrats to keep suggesting that people's own eyes and ears are lying to them all the time.

Please doubling down and losing.



"Trump notes reality under Democrat governance is terrible and that's so mean!"

The outcome are what is mean, not the messenger.



TDS
California has the fourth largest economy in the world, oh those horrible Democrat cities and states.

Trump notes reality, hilarious.
 
So my experiences can't be real because your news pundits say it isn't so.

Keep trying that strategy. It sounds like a winner.
The experiences you pull out of your arse? Tell us of your horror stories when you visit the big city. Do you get mugged every time or is it every third time?
 
They have imaginary grievances that Trump tells them to have. None of them have ever actually been hurt by anything Trump claims. They are looking for scapegoats to blame for their own failed lives and Trump spoon feeds them.
They collectively play the victim so well they should all get Oscars.
 
I get them from my eyes and ears. I'm a primary source for my own life.
Cool, tell us about all the cities you've lived in and while you are at it since you have so much democratic city experience, tell us about your woes in them.
 
What sort of skilled labor do you imagine is waiting outside Home Depot?

Do you imagine you are grabbing these people to roof your house?
We aren't grabbing these people, it's unethical business owners who use them. Hmm, I think I just described a lot of republican business owners.
 

NYC went 30% for Trump. That means even in the most liberal cities one out of nearly three voters is going for Trump and the percentages are growing.
Or in other words, trump lost by forty percent of the vote.
 
So are claiming this crew was all picked up at Home Depot that morning and they are day laborers?

Are you claiming that Americans can't or won't do that work?

Did you exploit them or did the contractor?

In other words did he lower his price and underbid other American contractors using foreign under the table labor?
Did he charge you full price and just pocket the difference by exploiting them or did you pocket the difference by paying a lower price on under the table labor that likely worked for cash off the books and paid no taxes and so on?

Who paid all the taxes on that foreign labor, especially the taxes that will need to be funding Social Security, Federal Taxes and so on?

You might want to rethink the high ground you just assigned yourself here.
I didn't see her claiming any such things. She's claiming her roof was done and most of the workers couldn't speak English. Did the customer know he used what might be illegal labor, probably not. I'm pretty sure a non English speaking person did not come to her house for the estimate. I'm guessing the business owner is exploiting them, the customer more than likely has no idea of what they are being paid.

As for the rest of your questions, ask the person who hired them.
 
Yeah because they can be
And why can they be? Because the business owner hires them
Its easier to verify now then ever.

In the Ellis island days you showed up unannounced, wrote your name down, took a TB test, and were on your way, legally, in a matter of hours, not weeks or decades.
I believe the undocumented were given papers with WOP stamped on them when they entered America. Who knows how many people came to America before we went insane with our immigration laws? The people who came here from elsewhere in the seventeen and eighteen hundreds all came here legally? Yeah, no.

There is a certain kind of ugly thought that has never truly left us [or anywhere else in the world as it is a human frailty that it exist and last I checked we are far from perfection in these regards anywhere in the world]. It diminished over time and what was left of it generally had the good sense to hide under the rocks.

Trump seems to have fostered a change in our social thinking that suddenly these vile thoughts think they have permission to make themselves publicly visible again. They should know the they do not have mine, and I doubt I differ from the majority of us. They may feel very much free to slink themselves back under the stones they were hiding under.
 
And why can they be? Because the business owner hires them
And?
I believe the undocumented were given papers with WOP stamped on them when they entered America. Who knows how many people came to America before we went insane with our immigration laws? The people who came here from elsewhere in the seventeen and eighteen hundreds all came here legally? Yeah, no.
Can you state your point here?
