    Yesssssssssss . . . because what the entire nation can see and hear leftist politicians embrace and endorse as a matter of course is NOT what they are actually saying, embracing, or endorsing. Hahahahaha!

    I had hoped you'd be sophisticated enough to realize the "open borders" canard is designed to dupe Trumpers, not accurately describe the Dem position on border security. Sadly, I over estimated you.

    I wouldn't worry so much about left and right. That's meaningless. Worry about the issues that affect you or that are of interest to you.

    Left-right-center. They are imaginary constructs created by ideologues. Nothing is left or right. We all have to deal with the environment. We all need healthcare. We all need to deal with guns.

    The sooner we stop viewing the world through this artificial left-right kaleidoscope, the sooner we'll be closer too solving actual problems.

    Wow.... an enthusiastic believer in the Collusion conspiracy hoax and lies is criticizing "blind acceptance". This complete absence of self-awareness among libs is staggering.... before you know they might start predicting 98% chance of democrat candidate victory in 2020 :D

    Have you considered being honest for once?
    I know that’s not a prerequisite for spammers such as yourself.

    Psssst . . . the entire nation can both see and hear that nearly all leftist politicians addressing the issue are in actuality for open borders because they attempt to block Trump on the issue at all turns.

    To be fair, look at how many of them still BELIEVE that Hillary Clinton actually won the presidency in 2016. "But she won the popular vote!" It's as if NONE of them ever took a class on how and why our government is designed the way it is.

    Don't get me wrong. I realize you are earnest in your belief about the open borders meme. After all, Don repeats it all the time. But...........you know...........he lies so.................

    The article is available for you to read. If you choose to live in the world of make believe after doing so there's nothing I can do about that.

    We don't actually.... It's the extremist radical socialist violent left that failed to occupy Wall Street but has successfully conquered the Democratic party that's causing concerns.

    I read it. There’s nothing in the article that highlights a single lawyer who argued against DACA( you know that Obama end run around congress, the same thing you’re crying about trump doing, hypocrisy much?).

    Wanna try again?

    Nobody running is a socialist. But if the Democrats try to force a candidate onto people they will lose.

    The socialist rhetoric has gone limp, there is no reason for the Democrats to submit to Republican word games.

    What has Trump done to say you'll never vote Republican again? I have been a Democrat longer than I have been a Republican. But this is not the Democratic Party I looked up to. This is not the Democratic Party that put Americans and our country first. This Party is only interested in is power and they are doing everything in their power to get it and keep it. I don't know how anyone can't see that.

    Duh. Every incumbent election is like this. There was no serious opposition to Obama in 2010 either, or Bush in 2004, or Clinton in 1996, or Reagan in 1984, etc.

    The incumbency advantage is massive enough against a rival party, let alone against primary challengers.

    The left do have one very good candidate, Andrew Yang, but sadly he is far too progressive and smart for the DNC.

    oddly, that means it doesnt matter whom the left chooses, because you already stated you'll never vote 'right', so the thread (op) is moot, useless, waste of time...

    Please tell me what law he has past to force it to stay open? Doesn't even compare to Obama stiffing half of GM's creditors to keep those union dollars rolling in to the DNC coffers and forcing them to make cars that no one was buying that they were losing money on with every sale.

    I believe there is room for a left and right perspective in government. It's been my experience a respectful melding of those two approaches to issues can lead to good policy.

    But we are not in that period. It seems to me, sensing the time was right, the extreme Progressive left struck when Obama surfaced as a viable Presidential candidate. From that moment, political correctness was given teeth, multiple messaging channels were exploited, (Facebook, Google, Twitter, etc.) and alternative propaganda outlets grew exponentially (ThinkProgress, MediaMatters, HuffPo, etc..). MSM, a dying business model, sensed an audience could be built by manipulation and attack. The New York Times, WaPo, etc., all have staved off bankruptcy by playing to a targeted audience after selling their soul to the Gods of Yellow Journalism.

    Consider what the left is offering in the House. It's reruns and empty claptrap. Warren went on the warpath the other day, sending out smoke signals regarding programs and wishes that were estimated to cost taxpayers $100 trillion.

    Beto, nothing but an empty suit, a political Kardashian, is a golden boy. AOC? Enough said.

    As a Nation we will get through this period where the desperate are working hard to complete the objective of Obama's handlers - to fundamentally change the US. It is up to people who reject that type of change to continue to push back. The Nation must not be allowed to go the way of California.
