Birthright citizenship is especially noxious to the populist right. They scorn it as relying on magic dirt — the idea that there is something inherent in American soil that makes a person an American citizen.
Yet the same populists seem to believe in something like magic blood — that one’s lineage can make one superior.
America doesn’t have magic dirt, and it certainly doesn’t have magic blood. But it does have a magic idea — the creed that declares “that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” https://t.co/lDocJeovCh
@DecodingFoxNews It’s about that time in the election cycle when Fox and Newsmax breathlessly start to panic scream about the lawless hoards of 10s of thousands of migrants who are about start their march to the border.🤡🤡🤡🤡🙄
@azjustinheap You spelled “negotiations”wrong, you illiterate Trump butt puppet. Advice: learn to read, write and for Lords sake, take a civics class. 🤡🤡🤡🤡
@larryboston1236@MikeNellis Platner can learn from mistakes, accept accountability, and change his behavior. By contrast, Collins who consistently and unquestioningly enforces harmful Trump policies can negatively affect this country’s morale, productivity, and well being every single day. No brainer.
@joeroganhq 🤡🤡🤡🤡Funny how a spoiled right wing podcaster says “work until you drop dead” only holds a microphone . Not roofing shingles at 115° in July. Retirement at 65 isn’t laziness, it’s the reward for decades of trading your knees, back, and time for everyone else’s economy.
