    Are you actually trying to say with a straight face that one of if not the most prominent campaign issue that Trump ran/is running on is not anti-immigration???

    Dude... you can not argue for sh$& anymore. It’s incredibly lazy to go to this victimization defense.

    Trump is running on race. That’s just a fact. Stop playing stupid with your fake victimization nonsense.

    Do you know how I know you’re full of it? Because Obama and Bill Clinton had the exact same positions as Trump on immigration.

    China takes money from both sides and gets to dictate policy in the region. Works out great for them.

    The US has a $787 Billion dollar defense budget because it takes that to insure that the dollar is the fiat currency in the world. And that's what allows us to print unlimited money..... that we spend on the defense budget.

    But we won't get snookered like Pearl Harbor again.

    Oh, definitely. Now, when things come up, China can pressure South Korea to vote or side with them or risk needing more money to help “stop” North Korea.

    And, if we leave South Korea because of Trump’s stunt, we basically have lost the Korean War and put Japan in a precarious position.
