Lol, nah. Although he is joking, it is undeniably a Right wing position to legally discriminate against religious people.
-
Because he thinks people should be nicer to each other? Long live progressive liberalism!
-
For one because you just said that you voted for Trump even though you agree he’s a lying criminal conman. Also because at least part of the reason you don’t like Hillary is, again, because you’ve allowed yourself to fall for transparent partisan fakery. (Seriously, are you not embarrassed to have posted that picture thinking it was real?)
-
Are you likely to vote for a Democrat against Trump at the next election?
-
If he was running against Hillary, I guess
-
So why didn't you? These claims of balanced, bipartisan views after the fact are somewhat hard to believe when you never had a good thing to say during his run, and you're still allowing yourself to be fooled by the most obvious, ludicrous right wing nonsense as an excuse for needing to vote against Hillary.
-
Why would you need to? How clueless about recent world history are you?
-
Are you really that stupid?
-
None of what you just said contradicts my post.

But the only reason it's a $70,000 operation is the insurance companies' insanely convoluted billing process, no? The actual cost of the operation plus a reasonable profit margin for the hospital would be nowhere near $70,000.

You started us down this avenue, what do your stats say? -
No, the nastiness, or rather expressed frustration, comes from the fact that you are not responding to anyone’s criticism of the effects of your position. You’ve put forward an idea, people have found flaws with your idea, and you’re simply restating the original idea as nauseum as if it is on its own a rebuttal to the criticism. If you gave any indication whatsoever that you were considering the merits of anything that was being said to you, the tone of the conversation would probably be quite different.

I’m sorry, but that’s such transparent bullshit. Don’t pretend you’re prepared to support Trump because you’re an optimist, it’s just not true. You never have and never will give the same benefit of the doubt to a Democrat President, your support of Trump is solely rooted in partisan politics.

Americans. Who do you think it is? -
Right, you do get that the people most likely to need SS are those who don't have much money to pour in? If you think it's failing now, what happens when you let all the high earners leave the contributing pool?
-
There absolutely positively can be obstruction of justice in that case.
-
It's quite a conundrum for Rush, isn't it? Barr says the report completely exonerates Trump, and Trump says the report is a fabrication. Which means...
-
That's not how set theory works.
-
Well... no. The precedent was to have large amounts of bipartisan input and consultation. The Trumpcare plan had none.

So it really is that simple - your post IS purely about sanctuary houses and homes, and has absolutely nothing to do with sanctuary cities, countries, or any other real world political proposal. -
Even though it went through vastly more bipartisan review, for far, far longer, than the Trumpcare effort ever did.

But surely you're not saying that you woud prevent any legal American citizen from coming to your city? Therefore, there is no equivalence whatsoever between sanctuary in someone's home and sanctuary in someone's community. Even if it wasn't just a dumb 'gotcha' setup with leading questions, the video would still have absolutely no relevance to sanctuary cities, countries or anything else except a person's own private dwelling. Yes, that's exactly the point - the questions are specific. They are specifically about something which bears no relation to any policy being asked for or pushed for in the real world. Do you understand that, or do I have to kindergarten it even further for you? -
No, because we’re talking about one pass vs how many, a hundred? A thousand? Thousands? There comes a point where people cannot be given the benefit of the doubt anymore. Trump lies like almost no-one else in politics and about everything whether important or not. Whatever passes he once had are long gone. But good to know you agree that Trump is part of the true class of ruling elites, unlike Obama.

Bullshit. You specifically pointed out, several times, that they were talking about their own homes. And let’s face it, private homes are a very different thing to public communities. Talking about who can come to your community has nothing to do with who can live under your roof. Trying to equate the two is frankly pathetic. So how about you actually answer the question posed earlier - would you welcome any random American who came to your city into your house?
