@M_A_FLOY@JoJoFromJerz and are not able to access many support programs, so net positive.
Yes, immigration is an important social issue, but so are gun violence, domestic violence/SA, and all the other awful things that people do to each other regardless of ethnic origin. 2/2
@M_A_FLOY@JoJoFromJerz If the only murder victims you care about are those with an undocumented killer, you don't care about life...you care about hate.
The undocumented commit crimes at a lower rate than the general population, and they are a net benefit to society. They contribute work and taxes...1
@TylerO_90@dannyboy7796@JoJoFromJerz You missed that a long time anti-vaxxer who has lied and misinformed on many occasions might not be the best person to oversee health issues that affect millions.
Rich bros who like...no love... the limelight are seldom a good choice in government.
@JoJoFromJerz I weep for your country. That you are about to be governed by a bunch of rich "bros" who think that they know best, and probably find stuff like this funny, is terrifying.
@gordon_alive @kat_smas @Capale2022@atrupar facts. The difference is subtle yet staggeringly important in today's political climate. Any politician who continues to dispute the truth of the 2020 results, either actively like Trump or passively like Cotton, is contributing to loss of trust in the process. RIP democracy. 2/2
@gordon_alive @kat_smas @Capale2022@atrupar There is a very real difference between saying, "Trump lost." and "The election was decided in Biden's favor."
The former is an absolute acceptance of facts in evidence. The latter implies that the conclusion was the result of some interpretation or adjudication of the...1/
@gordon_alive @kat_smas @Capale2022@atrupar I will not admit that fraud exists in all elections. "All," just like "every," is far too high a bar to meet.
Fraud also implies a deliberate intent to deceive. I am sure it is present in "some" elections...that is reasonably easy to prove...like Mark Meadows registering...1/
@gordon_alive @kat_smas @Capale2022@atrupar They didn't need to admit they lost: they behaved as expected for the losing candidate. Trump never did, and never has. He HAS spent the last four years on his "Greatest Grievances of 2020 Tour" screaming the Big Lie to anyone stupid enough to listen and believe. Shame.
@gordon_alive @kat_smas @Capale2022@atrupar No. I won't. I cannot know that: "Every" is an impossibly high bar. Are there spoiled ballots, ballots cast in the wrong location, ballots cast in error? Sure...but that is not cheating.
@gordon_alive @kat_smas @Capale2022@atrupar now largely disbarred lawyers, and the My Pillow guy over scores of judges, governors, secretaries of state, and election officials, you are not a free thinker, you are a traitorous, unpatriotic fool. 2/2
@gordon_alive @kat_smas @Capale2022@atrupar Trump has admitted that he knew he lost. The recently unsealed Smith filings demonstrate that pretty conclusively. Trump's own administration asserted that the 2020 election was the safest and most secure in history.
If you believe the likes of Trump, his cadre of...1/
@gordon_alive @kat_smas @Capale2022@atrupar Not. The. Same.
Irregularities at a level that would have affected the outcome in 2020 have been disproven six ways from Sunday.
