President Trump: Making America Normal Again

News flash to the world: If you dump your crooks and creeps and other uglies into this country and then refuse to take them back, there will be consequences:

"President Donald Trump has already begun deporting illegal aliens who have been convicted of other crimes, and one South American country has refused to allow a U.S. plane carrying criminal illegal aliens to land, in what Trump says is a violation of its legal obligations.

Trump announced tariffs, a travel ban, and sanctions against members of the Colombian government in response.

“I was just informed that two repatriation flights from the United States, with a large number of Illegal Criminals, were not allowed to land in Colombia,” the president wrote in a post on Truth Social Sunday. “This order was given by Colombia’s Socialist President Gustavo Petro, who is already very unpopular amongst his people.

Petro’s approval rating has hovered around 30%, according to Al Jazeera.

“Petro’s denial of these flights has jeopardized the National Security and Public Safety of the United States, so I have directed my Administration to immediately take the following urgent and decisive retaliatory measures,” Trump added. . ."

Update. After Trump's announced policy re Columbia, the President of Columbia is sending the presidential plane to fetch his crooks, creeps, criminals and other uglies so they will be treated with 'dignity.'

Unreal.

You can't make this stuff up.
 
And the beat goes on and I suspect we'll prevail each time one of these numbnuts tries to get 'tough' with us. While I appreciate theHawk 's post linked here, I take a bit of exception to calling women leaders dumb. The Columbian President is a guy and was just as dumb as will be any others who try to get 'tough' with us. Hopefully the women will be just as bright in not wanting a trade war with the USA too.

Trump is not intimidated by anybody. :)

Why would you be offended by calling her a dumb woman?

She is both, a woman and dumb.

No problem with calling a specific person who happens to be a woman dumb when she does an apparently dumb thing. I just bridled a bit--nothing serious mind you--at the implied characterization of all Latin America women leaders being dumb. :)

Some women are the caliber of a Golda Meir or Maggie Thatcher, etc.

Well I guess I bridled a bit

Well, most woman are insufferable liberals.

It’s just amazing to me that Latino people would elect women. They don’t typically make good leaders. There are exceptions….but usually they are bad.

I won't argue that many women make poor leaders not only as leaders of countries but in other ways. But then so do many men.

Just a gentle nudge not to throw us all into the same pot. :)
 
Trump is still above water on both policies and vision today.


Rasmussen has his overall approval rating at 52% today. RCP has it at 51.3%

Despite the Democrats' intense efforts to destroy him any way they could, he is enjoying his highest approval ratings ever. If promises made, promises kept continue and he can continue making progress on his stated goals and objectives, he will likely sustain that. Biden who accomplished nothing of value to the American people in four years had steadily declining approval ratings over his four years.

". . .According to polling data from Gallup, Biden's average approval rating across his four years of power was 42.2 percent, a historically low figure. The only recent president to score lower was Biden's predecessor and now successor Donald Trump, who had an average approval rating of 41.1 percent over the course of his first term. . ."
"MSN.

It is of note that Biden enjoyed 90% or better positive press for his four years while Trump had 98% negative/critical/accusatory press for his first four years.
 
Don't get loco, Chica.
LOL. It's okay to hypothesize what might happen. :)

I like President Trump's attitude that very little is impossible. If it needs to happen there is some way to make it happen.

He is trashed and excoriated for thinking out loud sometimes as he works through all the various scenarios and possibilities and concepts that he thinks about as he works toward a decision or solution about this or that. And he is often including suggestions or concepts or possibilities proposed by others when he does that.

He won't be limited by the status quo or what others think unfeasible or impossible. But he does like to be right.

I am much the same way though I in no way claim to have his skill set for problem identification and solving.

The President of Columbia initially refused to allow the deportation flights to land in Columbia. But Trump quickly convinced him that was not acceptable and there would be consequences. So the President of Columbia sent his own presidential plane to get those deportees.

But just think how great it would be if President Trump could call up the President of Honduras and say that X number of deportees are being held in custody wherever. Please come get them within 24 hours.

(And okay, I know that is highly unlikely to happen. But it is fun to think about.)
 
And of Education: Milton is spot on!!!



Greg


Milton Friedman should have been tried as a war criminal for what he did in South America.

The Republican Party continues to believe Friedman because he tells them what they want to hear: All social programs are bad. Wages and prices will naturally adjust if you don't mandate either. Any government control of any portion of the economy is bad. That includes education, health, or transportation.

Even as more and more Americans are frightened and uncertain about their future, they believe tax cuts for billionaires is going to help working men and women. You'll soon be in second tier nation status, if your middle class declines further.
 
The migrant invasion has included people from at least 160 different countries.

I'm just wondering. Why don't we insist ALL the countries come pick up their citizens? Would be a whole lot cheaper. :)

Migrant invasion??????? Trump arrested 2700 illegals last week. That's 140,000 per year. At that rate, it'll take more than 75 years to clear out the 11 million illegals you have now.

How about coming up with a better solution??????? One that includes all of your so-called "Christian Values"???

In Matthew 25: 35-40, Jesus spoke of the Judgement of Nations and said that those who will sit on his right hand will be those nations who DO help the afflicted.

"Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’ Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’

Why are you turning these people away????
 
Hey fellow MAGAs, Dragonlady thinks I'm unChristian because I think invaders should be sent packing.

Maybe she's right but I don't think Jesus disapproves of enforcing reasonable and necessary laws. He was pretty clear on that. (He did disapprove of unnecessary hypocritical laws that made no sense.) But I'll accept that I'm a sinner.

But I wonder if we couldn't just shoo them all up into Dragonlady's neighborhood and let her take care of them? That way I may go to hell, but the invaders would enjoy all that Christian compassion.

What do you think?

It would go faster if we didn't have to land the plane in these foreign countries. Get a little low open the cargo doors and return home.
 
So most of us have been following President Trump's insanely full schedule beginning the hour after inauguration last Monday. He has been in office exactly one week today and has accomplished more good for America and Americans in that one week than Biden did in four years.

But some of you may have missed that Trump took time out of that bruising schedule to cover up the bird flu epidemic that apparently has been going on for only a week or so according to Rachel Maddow. Thanks to ColonelAngus who made an informative thread on this today.

I swear Maddow hasn't been working with a full deck for quite some time now.
