At least those colleges degrees are worth something still.

And look at what you just said. You just gave the entire board a reason to not vote for him. He's a fraud. Good job.

Everybody knows he is a fraud. Everybody knows Hillary is a fraud. Everybody knows our government and politicians are frauds.

Hello McFly


then I dunno why you would equate his useless degree to schools who are at least legit, however stupid their tuition rates are.

McFly ended up being the winner, BTW.

Anyway, it's gonna take a hell of a lot more than just trade agreements and regulations for anybody's plan to work.

It isn't gonna mean a damn thing if Americans don't change our mindset of getting the cheapest thing possible.

People like to blame government, but forgot we were the ones pushing this nonsense to what we see now.

I know people, especially conservatives, don't like looking in the mirror and taking accountability for their actions. But we should start. We drove the "always low prices" mantra the entire time. Now we're crying about our long term effects on the economy as if it's somebody else fault?

We wanted cheap prices. We're reaping what we sow. We're crying about illegals taking agricultural jobs, but then watch the rioting once lettuce starts cost 8 dollars a head.

We put the blame literally everywhere else, except ourselves.

IMO what Trump has going for him is people think there is a chance he will have and implement a plan that will work. While with Hillary they know she won't do a damn thing to help them or us as a Country. Hillary is a true politician everybody should know she won't change a damn thing that does not benefit her. Trump has been smart enough to insult most politicians just like most people in this country do. He has managed to find common ground with a lot of America.

BTW many Schools are legit yet their degrees are still useless.

Did he? That last part is highly debatable.

Common ground with wealthy white males and uneducated?(his words) sure.

Everybody else? Nah guy.

Hell, he barely has common ground with his own party. Including the people who identify as conservatives.

Dunno if Hilary won't implement anything. Dunno if Gary will implement anything.

But your post doesn't make any sense. She might not do anything that helps this country....in YOUR eyes. You don't speak for the entire country though. Neither do I.

Illegals didn't take anything that wasn't readily given. Think about that.

For many years people on these boards have cried for change in government. The politicians are robbing us blind.

Now we have someone new, a fresh change, a non-politician, an outsider who knows the system and wants to fix it.

We have something new to try and it is called Trump!

Yet the very same people who cry for change are crying about change.

I say we see what an experienced businessman can do for America because the politicians have failed us already.

Vote Trump, make America great again!

Well something attracted them here, right?

What, you thought being the greatest nation on the planet wasn't gonna attract people from the worst, most violent countries and try to make it here.

You're mad at illegals for trying to make their lives better, yet you don't say a word to the business that encouraged them to come over here?

Y'all have no consistency on this board. Y'all complain that the little guy is getting screwed over, but then blame the little guys for everything wrong in this country.

Ok.

I don't blame the little guys. I blame our government and politicians for not booting them out of the country and enforcing the laws that are on the books. Wait Donald wants to enforce the law and boot them out of the country doesn't he. Yet folks want to call him racist for enforcing the law, instead of changing the law.

Wow, you and Erik drunk the koolaid.

You guys repeatedly say you hate government for not doing something about immigration and lying...yet you're gonna be a politician (trump is now officially a politician) is gonna do something about immigration?

I see Jim jones is still doing his thing.

No koolaid drinking here man. I will take the 2 percent chance that he does something about immigration over the zero percent chance that Hillary gives us. If playing the odds is drinking koolaid then voting for Hillary is like living for four years wearing the damn suit.

Trump isn't gonna do anything about immigration. Really, nobody is.

In regards to Benghazi...

Technically there was a stand down order... at least from the CIA station chief that kept telling those guys they couldn't go. But he was on the phone to somebody, right? The fact is there were assets that could have moved in and provided support. Those assets were aware of the situation and never given the green light. So those phone conversations had to go one of 3 ways:

Asset: We're ready to go!

Person on the other end of the phone:
1) "Yes, you have the green light, go"... well that clearly didn't happen.
2) "No. you aren't authorized (stand down)" but according to some of you guys there was no stand down order so..
3) "Um... we'll get back to you on that"
4) Or there was just dead air

The fact that it took so long has less to do with Republicans going on a fishing expedition and way more on the fact that Clinton et al purposefully drug their feet and hindered the process at every turn.

Look, in the beginning I was open to the possibility Clinton had no hand in the incident. In my mind there were only really 3 questions that needed to be answered:

1) Who made the decision to not send support?
2) Why was that decision made?
3) Why would the State Dept purposefully mislead the public about the video?

Even if those had to be answered behind closed doors due to security concerns, that all could have been handled within a couple hours of conversation.

According to republicans, it was the military that dragged their asses.

According to what I have read, they were more worried about what the Libyans might think about our guys wearing their uniforms or not than about the people on the ground. They were more worried about perception than their people. They also concocted the video excuse while in the meeting. The answer to your third question is simple. It was an election year, and most of this administrations answers have been to blame someone else and deflect.

Wait a moment Swish,, It's not about the Koolaid. It's about what's right or wrong.

RIGHT: Come to America the right way, work to build a life, become a citizen and you won't have any problems from me.

WRONG: Sneak in, don't follow the rules WE have, stay here and take from us without adding to us. Don't become a citizen. Don't pay taxes. You will have a problem with me.

All I'm asking is for people today to have to live by the same rules (or any modified ones in place now) that my grandparents who came here from Italy had to live with.

But we can't and shouldn't stop all immigration. Just keep it legal.. That's all. And please, we can't reward someone for breaking our laws...

I've been on the side of fixing immigration.

All I'm saying is that nobody wants to hold the businesses who hire them in the first place accountable.

Oh, I do. In my eyes, if you hire an illegal Alien, you are guilty of harboring a criminal.

Responsible businesses hire people that prove they are eligible to work in the US.

There is this little form known as the I-9 put out by the INS. Every employee I hire has to complete that form and I have to review those documents that verify their eligibility to work here.

There may be some laws on the books allowing for migrant workers to come in, pick crops (or other labor intensive jobs) and then leave. I'm really not sure of that.

But if they are required to leave and they don't, then it becomes a problem.

I'm not sure how little known it is, considering I had to fill out an I9 form for every job I ever worked at and require prospective employees to fill out an I9 to work for my company*

I didn't say "Little Known" I just said "Little"

If you are legal and work for a responsible employer, you filled one out. I suppose if you began your employment with your current employer prior to when this form was first adopted (in the mid 80's) then you may never have filled one out.

WEll then get rid of Hillary as she is part of the problem, and give Trump a chance to put our money where his mouth is.
