Trump to sign order making English the official U.S. language

Kind of a self incriminating remark isn't it? Price of eggs are this high because the last administration ordered the slaughter of the hen layers whether they were infected or not until this occurred. Nice to see you making the point the last administration was a sham
Eggs are not very healthy meal indeed. Time to move on to something else.
 
It' better to be more honest the pretend that you remember more the one digit, let alone know the meaning of PI number.
All your calculations will be off, but at least you didn't have to remember 4 digits.

I don't have to remember 4 digits because my phone does remember them. I have long suspected that America phones not that smart....

How many of the digits of Pi does your phone remember?
 
Which means absolutely nothing.
Once again Donnie is all show and no go
 
Well, Boo-Hoo, you don't like name changes.

Did you voice any objections when US Military base names were changed to erase the memory of Confederate generals who fought against the Union?
Or how about the dismantling of Confederate statues?
So what is the big deal about changing the name of the southern Gulf?
People get used to name changes all the time.
Think about all of the streets in this country renamed Martin Luther King whatever or Cesar Chavez whatever to show Progressive support for those two activists.
Did you ever complain about Google Maps name changes when those street names changed.?


Your hatred of Trump is the overriding factor here.
What effect does the name change have on you?
Does it somehow make you a lesser person? Or maybe it makes you want to renounce your citizenship and move to Canada or Belize? That could be a good thing for you.

You wrote: "What has been done is to create expensive confusion over something that never had to be done and wasn't even an issue."

So who is confused? You? over what? Will you be confused because you can't find the Gulf of Mexico on your Google maps anymore?

You are overstepping the bounds of polite discussion with the completely unsubstantiated assumption that I "hate Donald." I do not hate the man. I do not hate anyone. Hatred is a foolish emotion. There is no benefit to hatred. Hatred only hurts the hater. The hated often have no idea they are even hated.

I actually feel very sorry for Donald. He has never had a happy life. He does not know what it is like to be happy. He has no friends. He has no concept of what love is. He was not loved as a child. He was neglected. Donald had a tragic childhood. That's why he is a bully. He learned that he could get attention though bullying. Act out, get attention. He has never gotten past that. He has never matured from being the neglected little child that nobody loved. Now he is trying desperately to get the world to respect him and he has no idea how to be a respected person because he doesn't respect anyone else. He had no good role models to teach him respect. His father was a greedy selfish man. That is what Donald has become. Donald thinks money is the end-all be-all, the only way to earn respect. Respect cannot be bought. Foolish man. I certainly don't hate him. I pity him. He could benefit greatly from counseling and could afford the best but his ego won't let him attempt the route of self improvement.

Donald is a petty immature man who thinks the only way to get things is to either rip somebody else off or use threats. It's a good thing the world is not full of only people like Donald or there would be no world order, no peace. Only suffering. It's a shame that he has risen to the office he holds. It is a blot on our history.

There was no need to make English our official language. That was done out of spite for Hispanics. He was throwing red meat to his extremist supporters who are full of hatred for other people. Spanish speaking people are productive and contribute to America. Ending government information given in Spanish is a stupid spiteful move. Helping Spanish speaking students get an education helps America. The Republican war on education is pretty obvious. Republicans control most States and education in America sucks. It's getting worse, not better. That is no coincidence. Ending Spanish government information hurts America. It was a petty thing to do.

Donald's first term of office did not end well, and neither will this one. He is turning people off and filling them with regret for voting for him by going full-on extremist with Project 2025. It's already hurting the economy. Donald lied to his supporters and they are so blind with allegiance to one man that they mostly don't care they have been lied to. He was going to end the war on day one. It was a lie. Prices were supposed to begin falling on day one. Another lie.

FRom where such a profound insight into Donald's private life ? Did he exposed all details himself ?

Sure !. And During senile Joe tenure there was only peace and prosperity. Correct? So what happened then? Why were Americans so blind not elect is leiutenant Kamala?
Seems everybody is so foolish except you.
There was no need to make English our official language.
I proposed to make Ukrainian the officail language cause you love so adamantly Ukrainians. Will you back my proposal ?
That was done out of spite for Hispanics. He was throwing red meat to his extremist supporters who are full of hatred for other people. Spanish speaking people are productive and contribute to America.
May be America should be passed back to Mexico then ? Everybody will be happy to speak Spanish.
Ending government information given in Spanish is a stupid spiteful move. Helping Spanish speaking students get an education helps America.
Education in Spanish ? America needs spanish speaking scientists. Of course. Why are you not using spanich for your posts ?
The Republican war on education is pretty obvious. Republicans control most States and education in America sucks. It's getting worse, not better.
The Democrats under Biden raised education to the unattainalbe heights. But then its droped to the presious leves on Trumps day one. Correct ?
That is no coincidence. Ending Spanish government information hurts America.
How ?
It was a petty thing to do.

Donald's first term of office did not end well, and neither will this one. He is turning people off and filling them with regret for voting for him by going full-on extremist with Project 2025.
This is why they voted for him twice. (I supposed thrice, but libs keep promoting their lies about "honest elections").
It's already hurting the economy. Donald lied to his supporters and they are so blind with allegiance to one man that they mostly don't care they have been lied to. He was going to end the war on day one. It was a lie.
Nope. The lie it would be if he didnt plan to end the war. But if he wanted to end the war on one day, and failed to end it in one day , this is not a lie but a mistake in forecast. He has underesimated the power of Deep State and their puppets like Zelensky.
So what is a real lie ? The real lie is your post. Which states that you don't hate anybody , but in fact you hate Trump and hare him deeply. Hence your false speculations and incorrect conclusions.
Prices were supposed to begin falling on day one. Another lie.
Supposed ? Trump has promissed to curb prices on day one? Where ? When?

OK. You don't hate Trump.
You simply detest, or greatly abhor, despise, or feel revulsion toward him. But you don't hate him. So it's easier to say you pity him because, if you feel pity, then you can go ahead and demean him in so many other ways -as you did.

Did you ever consider how many millions of immigrant coming to this country had to learn English in order to survive and thrive without getting assistance from a federal government? How did they manage to do that?
Hispanics have been coming into this country, or were already a part of it, for hundreds of years. Now you are concluding they need federal assistance so they can learn English? Why should the federal government take on that burden when every state has a responsibility to educate its citizens? Did the Italians, Japanese, Native Americans, Vietnamese, Chinese, Germans, Eastern Europeans (after WW II) ,or Norwegians get federal assistance to learn English? Why not?

I realize you are a super Progressive so, of course, you are going to look to the federal government to make things better for everyone.
I think you are going to become more and more disappointed as Musk and his minions continue to cut off aid from the central government to the states.

I do not recall making myself the topic of discussion. Since you are attempting to make the discussion about me, it indicates a weakness to discuss the things I mentioned. To wit:

There was no need to designate an official language. It was done to be mean and to appease extremists who are fearful of others. Normal people are not threatened by Spanish being spoken in the USA. Many languages are. English is already the predominately spoken language. All this does is make it more difficult for those who better understand another language to become Americans.

America is made of people who came from many places. This current fad of resentment for those still arriving here is deplorable. America is a beautiful diverse land of many cultures. Trying to erase our diversity is stupid. Maga has made a big mistake. Many regret their votes for Donald. That number is growing. Sure didn't take Donald long to screw up the great economy we had. Consumer confidence is down. Petty resentful stuff like this is just s smoke screen to distract people from the mess being made of our economy with all the firings, job losses and tariffs.

We cannot build a better future by firing people. Firing people and adding to the jobless numbers does not make America great.

Getting into a serious discussion about making English the nation's official language is about as productive as arguing over who should have won the Super Bowl.
It doesn't matter.

Firing federal employees and contractors will reduce discretionary spending and that's a good thing. Get used to it.

How is it a good thing to add to jobless numbers? And what about the work those people did? Now it won't get done.

You're making the assumption our economy with a four percent unemployment rate is not capable of absorbing a few hundred thousand unemployed workers over the next few months.
And how would you know that the work being done by government employees in January won't get done in the coming months?
Do you expect to be personally harmed because a few hundred thousands employees are no longer there to keep you, personally, satisfied?

How would you know all of that?
