Thanks for the link.

No, I dont think what occurred 120 years ago should affect policy today.

There is a reason Bill Pullman didn't just ask the space aliens to come on in and assimilate/enjoy our country.

3 cheers for Randy Quaid!

Just trying to keep up here.... We're comparing C. Americans fleeing murderous gangs to extraterrestrials you saw in a sci-fi movie?  This is the basis for your views on immigration law?

What in the WORLD is going on at the Northwestern student newspaper?
Please excuse them for practicing , ahem, Journalism while studying in a College of Journalism!
Agreed. Without the snark.

Ok, but you have to laugh at the Trumpists here being suddenly so concerned about journalistic integrity.
What does  the behavior of the Northwestern Student newspaper have to do with Trump?

Wow, this is sad:

You know a push-poll poll is objective and free of partisan bias when the opening line of your findings begins with

   Democrats really don’t like America....   

Don't ever lose your naive and youthful quality, Kid.  Without that, you'd just be a nonentity.

Ain't my poll, dolt.  Now go fuck a duck.

Explain how any of this is a SHAM?

What Mulvaney said.

When he said they do it all the time?

Or when he denied saying that they do it all the time?

The first is false - they do not barter for personal political advantage for a president "all the time" or ever, legally.

The second is false because he is on tape having said it.

2/3 voting students at Georgetown in favor of restitution to slave families sold by the University in early 1800s.

Do you disagree?

How very republican of you.

You dragged it in here, so in here it’s your poll.

By “fuck a duck” I take it you mean spill pollutants into its habitat.

Thanks to the GOP, many ducks are fucked.

It's your "this is sad" that suggests you believe/support/endorse the commentary which prompts the comment.

But you knew that, dolt.

"White House Ends Bar Association’s Role in Vetting Judges"

They got tired of having their unqualified nominations called unqualified.

Gee, how... not surprising.

And guess what?

The ABA is going to continue to offer their opinions and the papers will continue to run those opinions.

America's largest milk producer files for bankruptcy

Not Trump's fault or even the tariff's. Just a decline in cow milk drinking with a little help from former customer Walmart.

Quote
The 94-year-old company has struggled in recent years because Americans are drinking less cows milk. 2019 has been particularly brutal: the company's sales tumbled 7% in the first half of the year, and profit fell 14%. Dean Foods (DF) stock has lost 80% this year
The company, which produces some of the country's most recognizable milk and dairy products, including Dairy Pure, Organic Valley and Land O'Lakes milks, has blamed its struggles on the "accelerated decline in the conventional white milk category."

Well, it IS sad to me that such a low percentage of democrats answered in the affirmative.

They have been conditioned to respond this way.  "America sucks" - but just under Trump.  We'll be OK after that.

I am reasonably sure he would not use."conditioned" to describe the people who bought into the underlying premise of "Make America Great Again" as a response to a Democrat and an African American as president.

 After KC last night comparing C. Americans fleeing murderous gangs to bug-eyed extraterrestrials he saw in a sci-fi movie, I am less concerned about who he thinks is "conditioned."
