The Victory

In 2 years he will be lame duck, most likely from the 2026 midterms.

Yawn
 
Christian Nationalists love it when Christian Nationalism wins.
 
That this narcissistic prick has been voted in TWICE in the USA only shows how ****ed up the people there really are imho


Another way of looking at it is if this 'narcissistic prick' got elected, your candidate must have really sucked donkey balls.

I mean just how awful must your candidate and your policies be to lose to someone like that?

As much as I wouldn't want to spoil the enjoyment of our donkey brethren, " my candidate" isn't a thing.

I'm in the UK and I strongly suspect that even our donkey brethren would have standards that would see them reject a testicular tongue roll from the obnoxious ginger orangutan
 
Says you.

The rest of us know she did

And she FAILED miserably.
Re: @LouC She never had the position of Border Czar.

He's right. Harris was not a Border Czar. But her silence during the campaign concerning the responsibilities she was assigned would certainly indicate a lack of achievement. That is puzzling.

What role did she play in a June 2022 agreement with 19 other Western Hemisphere countries dealing with immigration? And, how will Trump's administration build upon it? Quite possibly, more than border enforcement, that 2022 agreement may be responsible for the drop in recent illegal border crossings.

The agreement, formally known as the Los Angeles Declaration on Migration and Protection, centers on stabilizing communities in Latin America, expanding lawful means of immigration, bolstering "humane" border enforcement across the region and collaborating on responses to the displacement of people.

By joining the pact, the U.S. and other nations committed to increasing temporary work visas to discourage unlawful immigration and mitigate labor shortages in the U.S., Canada and Mexico; expanding refugee resettlement and family reunification programs; increasing support for countries hosting large numbers of migrants; and collaborating on efforts to dismantle human smuggling networks.

The Biden administration will expect signatories to expand screenings of migrants in their territory so countries south of the U.S. can more quickly grant asylum to those who qualify for humanitarian protection and deport those who don't

OMG, really? This coming from a supposed Christian?

Y'all sold your souls to the devil.
Be proud.
The devil we know, vs the devil we don't know? Except - yes, we did know your devil pretty well. She has a record, which she tried hard to deny and/or to distance herself from.
 
Kamala claims to be capable of walking and chewing gum at the same time, as she accepts the position of Border Czar.
Not that it really matters now, this was her assignment.

Biden said during an immigration meeting at the White House that he had asked Harris to lead the administration's efforts with Mexico and the Northern Triangle — El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, countries that will "need help stemming the movement of so many folks, stemming the migration to our southern border."

A senior administration official said Harris' role would focus on "two tracks": both curbing the current flow of migrants and implementing a long-term strategy that addresses the root causes of migration. Cabinet members, including the secretary of state, are expected to work closely with Harris on these issues.

'Anointed by God': The Christians who see Trump as their saviour

'Trump has demeaned and debased'​

In recent months, from the pulpit of Bible Ways Ministries in Atlanta, Georgia, Reverend Monte Norwood has been sharing a very different message to that of Franklin Graham.
He, for one, was dismayed at last week’s election result.
“Trump has demeaned and debased just about anybody he could, from immigrants to minorities to women to those who are disabled,” he says.
“White conservative Republican Christianity that ignores character is just hypocritical."
“I am a Matthew chapter 25 kind of Christian - where Jesus said: ‘When I was hungry you fed me, when I was thirsty, you gave me something to drink.’”

So, you quibble over words, and object to "border czar". OK, it's "Immigration Czarina" then. No matter how you mince words, Camela was given responsibility, which she then ducked and dodged, while making inane excuses. Biden and Harris increased immigration four fold.
 
Why would I possibly care what some Harris supporting Atlanta preacher has to say?

I'm surprised you, of all posters hereabouts, believe applying the correct appellation is mere quibbling over words. During the campaign I was puzzled why both she and the media did not delve into the work she did do and whether or not that work contributed to the 2024 decline in illegal border crossings.

Republicans have labeled Harris as the Biden administration’s “border czar” and attacked her for her supposed failures in accomplishing one task: to “fix the border,” as former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley put it. But immigration experts stress that her mandate was far more limited in scope—and she was never appointed as the Biden administration’s “border czar.” (Homeland Security chief Alejandro Mayorkas and Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra are responsible for the border.)

In reality, Harris was charged with spearheading the Biden administration’s efforts to engage with three Central American countries—Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador—and help tackle the “root causes” of migration such as economic hardship, violence, and political repression. Harris was given the responsibility “to lead an initiative that had to do with private investment in those countries, in order to try to mitigate root causes,” said Doris Meissner, the former commissioner of the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service who is now at the Migration Policy Institute.

As part of this effort, Harris announced more than $5.2 billion in private-sector commitments in the three countries. The pledges come from more than 50 companies and organizations, according to the White House, and include Meta; El Salvador’s second-biggest bank, Banco Cuscatlan; and Target.

In 2021, when Harris traveled to Guatemala on the first foreign trip of her vice presidency, she made waves for issuing a sharp warning to potential migrants: “I want to be clear to folks in this region who are thinking about making that dangerous trek to the United States-Mexico border: Do not come, do not come.” The statement was criticized by some progressives and immigrant advocacy groups.

The Biden administration’s broader approach to the southern border offers a window into what a potential Harris strategy would look like. Illegal crossings dropped to a three-year low in June after Biden signed a controversial executive order that blocks migrants from seeking asylum during high levels of crossings. Advocacy groups condemned the executive order, which “is the most restrictive border policy instituted by President Biden and echoes an effort in 2018 by former President Trump to cut off migration,” the ACLU said. Crossings had previously surged to record levels: Last year, the Department of Homeland Security logged the highest monthly number of migrants at the border since 2000.

Alright, nomenclature then.

The rate of border crossings at the end of Trump's administration was X. Almost immediately after Biden took office, the rate was 4X. After 3 1/2 years, Biden reduced that rate to 2X. He takes credit for cutting the rate by 1/2, the lowest rate of crossings in 3 years. To wrap up, the very best that Biden and Harris could do, was 2X, or double Trump's rate of illegal aliens breaking the law.

We have to give Biden credit for succeeding in enticing millions of immigrants to break the law. And, it all falls into Biden and Harris' laps.
 
Why would I possibly care what some Harris supporting Atlanta preacher has to say?
You must have a massive affirmation deficit going on in an undernourished ego to think that remark was pointed anywhere towards you. :unsure:
 
A high opinion of women.
I do get tired of those kind of posts.

Men come in all different types. Some are real dirt bags. Some are great guys. Some are saintly. Some are criminals.

Women are the same. Some are dirt bags, or skanks. Some women are really great. Some women are saintly. Some women deserve to be locked up, and the key thrown away.

But, a lot of you women pretend that all men should respect all women. When we see a skank, we should never say that she's a skank. Camel face is maybe not the lowest of the bargain basement women I've ever met or seen in the news. But, when I was a young man, I ran from better women than her.

Your comment suggests that we, as men, should place all women on a pedestal, and just worship you because you are women. I get better conversation than that from my livestock.

These post must be repeated, often.
 
They called Trump, "Hitler" and "fascist" too!
Should Trump back down from his promises just so to show that he isn't fascist, authoritarian, Hitler?


Why should we care if we're called a cult?
Look at the kind of people who's calling MAGA, a cult!

The objective, rational mind, would see that it isn't. 🤷



It is a..................... MOVEMENT.


Big difference.
It is treason.,

Well you "worship" an utter shitstain like Crooked donnie, so intelligent people will take your opinion for what its worth I'm sure. 💯 🤷‍♂️

Kamala never accepted position of "Border Czar" because there was no such position ever in the Biden administration.
<Snipped>

FAKE NEWS!!!

Fake News produces fake news story.

Tape at 10!

Just because that CBS news outlet got it wrong about VP Kamala's charge from President Biden doesn't change reality.
 
Says you.

The rest of us know she did

And she FAILED miserably.
Claiming ignorance for yourself as part of "the rest of us" does not make you or them correct.

She did have success in what she was charged with by President Biden which never was for her to be Border Czar.

President Biden's Administration failed at Immigration in its overall sense except where VP Harris worked.
