I Hate Donald Trump

Trump was speaking on border security. That’s the speech you referenced. You also mentioned xenophobia. So it is perfectly logical to assume from your hatred of Trump that you’re a Democrat. Dems want an open border. That’d be you. @QuixoticSoul

@Native I am not a democrat. But they don't want open borders either, you're just thoroughly lost in the spin.

You can claim border security all you want, but that particular statement is crafted to demonstrate and appeal to extreme xenophobia, and there is no sane way to even pretend it's anything else. And it's precisely the "and some, I assume, are good people" bit that puts it right over the top.

The build up is totally mundane sort of fear mongering that we've heard for decades, but he's the first really mainstream political figure to blatantly imply that [i]most[/i] Mexicans are criminals and rapists. It's delusional, of course, but it played well with the certain crowd.

Which is why hardly anyone ever excludes it, it would strip the entire statement of its bite, kafkaesque-levels of absurdity, viciousness, panache, audaciousness, etc - whatever you want to call it. Without it, it simply becomes conventional yawnfest yadda yadda.

Here, do an experiment - search Google News for "And some, I assume, are good people", with the quotes - you'll see that it's referenced a lot, and frequently, by everyone. Far cry from being "ignored".

You’re not a Democrat? So what are you? You’re the one that is lost. You clearly have no idea what you’re talking about. You’ve fallen for the bait of the left. Educate yourself on each sides immigration policies and what each side has already voted against. You will see who is responsible for the current situation at the border. @QuixoticSoul

@SimplyTracie I won't. I do have an asshole, but (no pun intended, I swear) I don't let it define my personality.

@EnigmaticGeek Good.

@SimplyTracie 😊

@splishsplash support with some contributions, but this administration is something totally different, and he donated millions. One report has him.as the MAJOR supporter. I am not anti industry or corporations, but rolling back rules to protect workers through changes in labor laws and relaxing controls over polluters or relaxing FDA role in assuring safe medications is supporting corporate evil activity.

@samueltyler2

I dislike Donald Trump and his posse as much as the next person BUT penalizing good honest people - who work at Home Depot - is NOT (in my opinion) a rational decision. What the boycotts are doing is jeopardizing these individual's jobs and ability to support their families.

I think this bares repeating - Most business owners support Republican politicians based on their history of tax breaks for the wealthy. You would be hard pressed to find one major business who has not directly or in directly contributed to a Republican.

I could not agree with you more. We need to control contributions and get rid of lobbyists - once and for all.

@splishsplash as far ask am concerned, one of the worst thing that happened in the past 5 years was the SCOTUS decision about Citizen United! That has totally corrupted the electoral process!

@SimplyTracie 🥳yay

@EnjoyingLife no rich people no jobs,,can poor people hire other poor people,so who pays the bills,poor people,

@soar2newhighs dont think we are on the same page,

@saragoodtimes no they cant, they make everything about Trump like most unbelievers make everything about God. Its what they do.

@saragoodtimes when 45 stops making everything about himself the rest will follow suit. History will have the final say!

@SimplyTracie me too

@MarmeeMarch I’d wear the apron that says:

[b][center]I’m not always a bitch

Just kidding...
GO F YOURSELF [/center][/b]

@SimplyTracie I would just wear the apron and thats it.🤭

@MarmeeMarch Less than a hundred years, but a long time. Tbh I wasn't even around when someone got greedy, that was back in '79. Ever since then, it seems like the company's been trading hands ever few years.

Last few years it's been like a nicer Lowe's but that was fine by me.

@QuixoticSoul oh - I thought it was longer - yea - Lowe's bought the chain

@MarmeeMarch It's been like everyone. Sears owned it for ages. It went independent a few times. Filed for bankruptcy. Complete rollercoaster.

@samueltyler2 Could be. The parking lot is always full at Home Depot. Loews has some cars in the lot. Rona and Home Hardware is almost always empty parking lot. The Home Depot store near my home is well run so that might make a big difference.

@hippyjoe1955 it is a Shame if the stores are so poorly run!

@samueltyler2 Management makes or breaks the store.

@tiggerandariel13 Are you a vet? Did you get your 10% discount?

@calicuz then research it
