Trump is going too hard on "criminal" "rough" "bad people" immigrants. It's not a primary, it's a general. If you are gonna go there, talk about the economic costs and need to legal pathway. He only loses votes with broad labels like "mentally ill" "criminals" etc. The vast majority are impoverished people incentivized to come over for a better life.


How do you know?


You think wealthy people are crossing the southern border on foot? Thousands of criminals vs millions of non criminals, equals "vast majority" are not commiting crimes in society beyond entry. It's still a HUGE problem, as it doesn't take many criminals to be a problem.

My point is purely strategic. Trump is campaigning to win the WH. He is talking like he already won. Trump says lots of things that JD, and both of his own sons would never say, bc obviously gives the left soundbites to fuel their narrative.


Do you have the breakdown of who is coming across illegally? What percentage are criminals?
Aren't they all breaking the law and all criminals for crossing the border illegally?


100% correct. Every illegal is breaking the law.

A government efficiency commission will never exist, Elon. Government is the definition of inefficiency. The only way to cut government spending is to cut government agencies/jobs/etc.

Yes, cutting government agencies will be on the table.

There are gov stats on illegal arrests that back up my point, but hard to accurately measure. I think you would concede that women and children aren't the "rough""bad hombres" commiting crimes. Then you are left with a bunch of poor Mexican men hanging out at Home Depots, fileting fish in some kitchen, or mowing lawns. Of course there are criminals in gangs/sex trafficking/drug rings etc, just significantly less of them than the others I mentioned.

But again, my point was that Trump need to do whatever it takes to win and beat the left. That includes being more articulate with the border problem.

I'm trying to understand the mechanics behind it. Can the president create a commission that has the power to gut or eliminate all these government agencies without senate/house approval?

Actually anyone crossing the border illegally is committing a crime.

Regardless, I think any numbet of the "criminals" you mentioned is too many. So I want tighter border security.

Well the dept of education is in the executive branch so wouldn't the president have the ultimate say in his own branch of govt? I wouldn't think that Congress has anything to do with it unless they pass a law barring the president that power. Don't see why the legislative branch would have a say in it.

I am not a legal scholar by any means just trying to think back to US govt classes.

I imagine the chief executive has broad authority to downsize many of the agencies that he overseas in the executive branch.

Yeah, but Trump isn't referring to the act of illegally crossing the border when he says "they are sending their worst criminals".

All those voting for Trump already, would still vote for him if he toned down that rhetoric in final months of election season. BUT if he doesn't, there are many that will stay home or vote dem because they don't like broad labeling of people many have had charitable interactions with.

It's not really a complicated point to understand.

Understand. But we have to find a way to regulate who comes into our country. It's unacceptable.

It has been tried a few times. During Clinton's term, it was Al Gore's primary claim to fame. Reading the wiki article, the enabling document sounds like something from the Republican Party platform today. It's depressing how socialism has entrapped the entire Democratic Party.

This is very good Trump. And with 1.3 million listeners.

No way Harris could do something like this.

I'm listening on Twitter and most of the time Trump sounds like daffy duck. It's odd because I've never heard him this bad before. Musk sounds perfectly normal

Not solar. Nuclear and hopefully fusion at some point. Solar isn't great for the environment, either.

It would take more trees than is practical.

This has been studied.

Although, plants do grow faster in higher concentrations of CO2, so maybe their increased capacity for CO2 absorption will offset human CO2 production in the atmosphere. I don't know with certainty, but I think our release of CO2 is outpacing the Earth vegetation ability to absorb it.

I suppose it will eventually reach equilibrium, but at what concentration?

Yes, that's the correct messaging. That doesn't offend the latin community here legally. But Trump doesn't ever say it like that.

It would be like labeling black Americans "criminals". They are commiting way more violent crime than any other demographic per capita. But it would be stupid to label them criminals on the campaign trail. Instead, you address the dem policy that traps them, welfare, destruction of nuclear fam etc.

Trump said that 8 to 10 years ago. But all the left heard was that he called them all criminals.
Currently a happy listless vessel and deplorable. #FDEMS TRUMP 2024.
