the feds might finally enforce the border like they've been promising to do since the 80's

why? Reps were the ones that veto'd several previous attempts to increase border security

Trump will turn this country around, unlike Obama who turns everything that he touches into crap.

indeed, Trump will turn the country around and drive it right into the wall along with the rest of the world


I'm not denying that.  The republicans are almost as bad as the democrats.  But at least he is shifting the focus of debate to our government's open border policy and exposing the GOP for selling out to the chamber of commerce

Biringing attention to issues is one thing, but what good is that if the plans to address is aren't solid?

you have a point, we've been down this road a million times but this is like the furthest we've gotten and that at least is something.  you have hillary, jeb, rubio, sanders, any of those guys get in and it's going to be status quo in terms of open borders

He would properly enforce our borders, effectively protecting our right to sovereignty (something many border hoppers critical of us seem to forget). The jobs would go to those legally belonging to the us. The domino effect would cause the project/welfare rats to get one of said jobs instead of stealing sneakers and smartphones. The prison system would be more focused on violent crimes and thievery as opposed to cannabis offenders (he'd see a business opportunity).



Make games, not war (that goes for ridiculous fanboys)

I may be the next Maelstorm or not, you be the judge http://videogamesgrow.blogspot.com/  hopefully I can be more of an asset than a fanboy to VGC hehe.

Implying that we weren't already in bad times

There's bad times and there's Greece time :D

Nah seriously, the world recession was bad, but USA have turned it around from when Obama first got in, ok the USA has terrible debt... but I think it could get a lot worse if that crazy fool was in charge. 


Nah, he would just take the US into bankruptcy.  I mean... that has always been his solution in the past.

 

OT: We would start watering our crops with Brondo and get hooked on the popular new television serious 'Ow my balls'.  A Trump president would indicate that the US has finally achieved real life 'Idiocracy' status.

Hmmm.... should Trump become president then I think foreign affairs will become the citizens biggest priority; Cuba especially.

Doubtful. Illegal workers benefit rich folks most, he's just playing up this issue because he knows it resonates with the extreme right wing and it's what gets their panties tight. If he ever gets into office (which I doubt) he'll cave on this issue. 

A large work force that is willing to work for peanuts is quite frankly ... good business if you're in the corporate world, the US would fall further behind China in manufacturing if they had to pay everyone a regular working wage. Trump knows this very well. He's just playing this angle up because he's smart enough to know a good portion of "Joe Public Making $30-60k a year" is dumb enough to fall for it and it shows in the polls.
