Huge Trade Deal between the European Union and America!

Originally posted by: MaxFlavor

The current President is ruling by Executive Order, completely sidelining the House and Senate, and the Republicans and MAGA are standing by, doing nothing about it. Biden passed meaningful legislation on the initiatives he thought were important; whether you or MAGA agreed with them is irrelevant.

 

Here's something that just might blow your mind: I think both Biden's and Trump's immigration policies are complete failures.

 


I think that our entry and work/study permission system should be quite lax--like it is in the EU--and our temporary residency policies should be fairly lenient. Face it, MAGA morons, we need labor, skilled and unskilled.

 

Wanting citizenship used to be considered a praiseworthy thing. Now, the Turd wants to make it exponentially more difficult to attain AND to strip it away from those who have attained it.

I'm good with immigration as long as people are vetted and will provide benefit to our society and integrate with our values.

 

I'm not good with 78% of Somalis in MN on welfare after being here for 10 years.

 

 

The Hmong in MN are the exact opposite, they are working, integrating, helping build jobs and (real) businesses and few are on welfare.

 

There is a huge difference.  I don't want to pay taxes to support a 3rd world population that is just here to suck up our good will and wealth and send it abroad while lounging in their taxpayer provided apartments with 7 islamic marriage wives and 14 dependent children.

Yeah, all them filthy furriners, that's why they're here, they don't want to build a life here or work or learn--they just want to be parasites and gorge on Big Macs.

 

Do you realize that the shit you're spewing has been part of good old American discourse for literally two centuries? And usually the loudest were those who had just gotten off the boat themselves.

 

If the Native Americans had felt the same way about us FEELTHY IMMERGENTS, they would have wiped the Massachusetts and Roanoke colonies off the map and riddled with arrows any other white man who showed up. That's what they would have done if they had known what was in store for them. But the difference now is that the FEELTHY IMMERGENTS are vastly outnumbered by the folks already here. It's ludicrous when MAGA tells us they're some kind of threat, like they all have nuclear weapons in their shoes or something.

I don't entirely disagree with what you're saying. Or at least I don't entirely disagree with the good faith point I think you are trying to make.

 

I would just like to suggest that there are constitutional ways to go about it that don't undermine due process. 

 

We can't defend the republic by destroying the seperation of powers, constitutional limitations, rights to due process, and other things that make the republic worth saving. We can't save The Republic by acting like a monarchy. We can't save The Republic while acting like an empire. 


Canada, with some trepidation, is making a trade deal with China to cut tariffs on both sides to increase trade between the two countries.

 

 

Canada, China cut tariffs and announce new partnership as Trump brings old foes together - NBC News

 

 

"Though Canada’s relationship with the U.S. is much deeper and broader, Carney said, ties with China were now “more predictable.”"

 

"As part of an effort to “recalibrate” the relationship, Carney said Canada had agreed to cut its 100% tariff on Chinese electric cars in return for lower tariffs on Canadian farm products.""

 

 

The world is buying and selling elsewhere, much like people do when the favorite vendor/customer turns into a jerk and an idiot.

It's risible that Trump hates China so very, very much (because they wouldn't let him build a casino there) and yet, he's doing so much to help them achieve world dominance.
