Soooo...you're a racist? Ok...good to know, I suppose.
"In FY 2017 Congress provided DHS $292 million to build 40 miles of a steel bollard wall in the San Diego, El Centro and El Paso Sectors...."
That's $7.3 million per mile.
Is that the best use of that money?
So do women from numerous other countries, China being the most noteworthy, and they're all troublesome,... Simply showing up on US soil with umbilical cord attached should not automatically qualify an individual for citizenship,..
Silly wabbit, states don't decide things, people decide things.
Why should the people in some states have their votes count more (or less) than people's votes in other states?
The answer is not because it makes sense but only because we have an archaic scheme that operates against the one-person-one-vote principle. And it needs to go away.
We have fixed a lot of the mistakes the founding fathers made. It's time to fix this one.
Im racist because I voted for Obama? That makes very little sense even for a dem
As I've suggested before, California needs to divide into multiple smaller states. With clever boundary lines, most would be blue states. So CA's current representation in the Senate could easily rise from 2 to 20, mostly Democrats. With a similar increase in CA's clout in the Electoral College.
If this thought experiment doesn't illustrate how absurd the EC is, you aren't thinking clearly.

I don't know about the numbers, but a whole lot of folks here on HROT have said exactly that. Or at least said that was their primary reason for supporting Trump. And many who liked Trump at the time have now retreated to "at least he wasn't Hillary" as about all the reason they have left from whatever they might have thought in 2016.
Better yet, let them succeed and see how long they last. I would set the over under at 20 years.
You are tripping over your own setup. You identified the racist cohort, and then said you were part of it.
I'm sure you didn't mean it that way, but that's how it came out.
It won't happen, and I probably won't be around that long, but I'd take that bet.
They are, what, the 6th largest economy in the world? Something like that.
Plus, if CA seceded, I imagine the whole West Coast might go, with maybe Nevada tagging along.
CA's biggest problem as a state would be water. That could be a killer. Especially if the remaining US cut off the flows.
How was the evangelical crowd duped by Trump's campaign? I'm not seeing it. Seriously, I must be missing something.
'Cept those countries didn't set up Troll Farms to pose as US citizens to swing elections here.
In 18+ years, the Russian will have ACTUAL US citizens to do that same work, but IN THE US and fully legally.
We are the United STATES of America and to remain united we need to have some level of equality among states,... In some fashion Rhode Island has to be on a relatively level playing field with California,... If you federalize everything this country falls apart.
Baby Orange needs to re-open the government to do any of your top ideas so why don't we focus on that.
Dipshit is acting, again, like a petulant toddler at Toys R Us in keeping the govt closed.
Sure, that's where the Senate comes in to play.
Nope, it was intended to keep slave states powerful. It’s still doing that. Time to fight for emancipation.
So the dems are going around to hispanic households brainwashing little kids that when they turn 18 they need to vote for democrats?
Everyone is acting like this is fhe first shutdown of the government... I don't recall the libs\dems being up in arms in 2013.

I will take the 7.3 million over 100 billion for a HSR that will NEVER be finished. I will take the 7.3 million over another Officer Singh or Mollie Tibits. I will take my fellow Americans safety ANY F'ING DAY!
It was Ted Cruz who shut down the government in 2013 over a law that required legal funding. He just didn't want to do it. And yes, Democrats were angry.
