true
2018-07-02 20:21:30 UTC
1. A good amount of trump's initial economic success was piggy backing off of Obama's policies.
2. Trump has made policies that sacrifice the environment in favor of businesses
3. The trump tax plan is a blind faith tax plan that does not stipulate that those that get tax breaks have to invest in their business or employees. ( So some business will but how many will just invest in buying stocks or just keep the money)
4. Dehumanizing people is inexcusable , dehumanizing countries is wrong and should not be deemed acceptable regardless if their is any job growth.
5. The Tariffs are costing jobs and costing the tax payers more money
6. When trump campaigned he said build the wall and Mexico will pay for it not build the wall and we will have tax payers pay for it after we hold DACA receptions and family hostage.
7. Many DACA receptions serve in the military
8. Many jobs are not coming back to the US just because as technology advances the need for unskilled labor decreases and some jobs are just outdated.

Because (1) they don't care, (2) facts don't matter to them, (3) they don't hear the same facts you and I do because they are brainwashed by right-wing media and (4) they are ignorant.

1. Was Obama piggybacking off of Bush? I'm not going to pretend like I know one way or the other, but every time a new president is voted in, the new party is always going to take credit and the previous party is always going to claim they're just piggybacking off of them. That is just rhetoric. There's not much way to tell if it's true.



2. Many Trump supporters don't believe in climate change.



3. What exactly is wrong or blind about that? The money goes back into the economy regardless.



4. Dehumanizing people isn't always wrong. I don't suppose you believe it's wrong to confine most law breakers? That's really what it boils down to. In a Perfect World, no one would need policing. But we do not live in Perfect World. If someone was habitually trespassing on your property, they'd be rightfully sent to jail. Poor choices have negative consequences. You cannot get rid of the negative consequences without getting rid of the poor choices.



5. Source? The tarriffs are pretty new, to me claiming that we already have a negative outcome is about as silly as those Republicans claiming we already have a positive outcome. It's literally the 2nd day of July.



6. We are paying DACA recipients less and in exchange getting a wall. I see what you are saying and will criticize Trump for it but in a roundabout way...



7. Yes



8. Source?

1.) Presidents actually have very little effect on the economy, especially compared to Congress.

2.) Examples? Most of the regulations cut had little to no impact on the environment.

3.) Econ 101 tends to disagree with you

4.) Leftists should take their own advice here.

5.) Tariffs are bad UNLESS they are used to convince the other country to bring down their tariffs. Given EU and Canada have more tariffs that the US, I am willing to give Trump some time to try to bring down the tariffs before getting upset.

6.) DACA people are not being deported anyways, so its not much of a hostage negotiation as clearly evidence by the Dems unwillingness to give any money for a wall DESPITE Hillary campaigning on the creation of a wall. Further, given you don't want children separated or kept together, it seems you leftists want open borders.

7.) Once again DACA people are not getting deported, but I am fine with people earning their citizenship by serving in the military.

8.) Rather odd to make teh claims that we cannot get by without illegal immigrants while making this claim, dontcha think?

9.) While I will admit that Trump has faults, Obama also had faults. He killed the budget, had the largest trickle down economic policy in US history with quantitative easing and was rather warhawkish especially with his use of drones.





The truth is that while I don't like Trump and did not vote for him, you leftists have lsot your mind and make out everythign Trump does as being wrong.



For the immigration issue, Trump's policies have only minutely differed from Obama's and you act like Obama was a saint and Trump is the devil. It is called the Halo and Horn effect.



Of course, trump supporters view Trump with too rose-colored glasses, but you leftists are worse. It is one thing to act like Trump is doing a great job, but it is entirely something else to pretend Trump is a dictator or Hitler.



Fact is that even when federal judges have made ruling that Trump could have easily ignored and waited until it got to SCOTUS, he didn't. He followed the rulings.
