In order to get an immigration bill passed, I would give in a bit on certain items — I would grant a five-year, non-renewable visa to all illegals, and allow them to apply for a green card (at the end of the line, of course) within the first three years without returning to their home country. I realize that an effective immigration policy means all citizens and legal residents must “haff their papeahss” with them at all times, and I’m willing to live with that. I also know that putting a 15% withholding tax on remittances from the US — no, I’m not in favor, as the Donald is, of outright confiscation — means that Social Security will go bankrupt earlier than it’s now predicated to, because it’s presently being kept liquid by millions of “Ramon Gonzalezes” and “Maria Fernandezes,” Social Security Numbers 123-45-6789, who are working under false IDs and will never collect. I’m willing to live with that, as well.

Just remember the immortal words of that great statesman Mick Jagger — “You can’t always get what you want, but if you try real hard, you can get what you need.”

And my analysis of the info in the link.

Casinos are automatic passive income in the bank. Native Americans live off that, almost. How did Trump put someone so incompetent in charge, assuming he wasn’t managing it, that he got 3 billion in debt? How is that even possible with a casino, given house odds and retards coming in left and right.

Well, if I used the intel analysis algorithm I use for Leftist evil, the explanation is simple. He skimmed off the top and bottom for his political pawns. Buying favors isn’t cheap, especially for a new mafia family.
…
Nevada’s a Reid fiefdom, has been for some time. Although I heard casinos were legal elsewhere as well. Being a casino owning vassal in Democrat holdings, can lead to some very interesting… alliances.

The Trump will have to take care in attacking a very sharp woman (despite MeGyn, who is a talking head after all, and who asked him offensive gotcha female questions, IMHO as a male) or a manifestly decent black man whose public approval is increasing daily; and attacking Cruz will be a fencing duel. Cruz should be able to give him tit for tat easily, reducing him to bluster. A blustering Trump is a crash in progress.

Trump can handle the others, and they cannot handle him.

Interesting — both in that Trump helped her in this and in that she looks to be steering clear of “fireworks” between herself and Trump. Both are playing very complicated games it seems.

@theshoebart if anyone is on there.

I have sons adopted from Romania and have traveled a bit in Eastern Europe since the 1990’s. Let me tell you what a really bad country is about…

And yet in those places they have meals, they have friends, wine continues to gladden, music is played, young people fall in love.

good job ladies…

political whores that can be bought for nothing but empty promises..

anyone really thinks that bernie or hillary will make things better have the same idiot desease that said obama cause he is a communist would be better… but dont let anyone know that that is the reason… after all, stalin, mao, hitler, chevez, che, pol pot, kim, etc. made their places wonderful and put women at the front of things.

i still think that feminists are going to be really surprised when they find out they are up to be drafted and killed in equal numbers with the men, except that the men are harder to kill, harder to torture and no one cares about them…

Why am I not surprised ?

I am not going to beat anybody. Reality is going to do that. I know I can go a bit overboard. But how loud do you yell at a seemingly deaf old fart who seems to be walking toward the edge of the cliff? Do you try to tackle him? These days, you will be berated and maybe sued for even trying.

Honestly, I don’t think anything can be won, but it can surely be lost, and more thrown away. That is what I see people doing, and claiming civility as the best way to go down with the Titanic. Myself, I plan to get away. I would rather die trying, somewhere away from bureaucrats, politicians, and what passes for medical these days.

Yes, you and he may well have seen more days. But your best days are behind you. You have no real passion left. You probably vote as if you thought it had meaning. I suppose that is why someone like Fiorina is a consideration, Carlson and Cruz too.

As for enemies? I have no friends because I will simply not be tribal. It may seem like that, but if it were true, for a hundred reasons and more, I would be a Democrat. I have rejected all of my tribal ties. Including this soft-serve cuckconservativism. I visit once in a while, just to see how bad it is. And because Neo-Neocon has, and some others of ya’ll have, some good ideas. Then I get stuck reacting to… what I will easily call foolishness.

I don’t have allies. I realize that. I will be, in a year or two, give up on a lot of things, getting rid of the internet, maybe sooner getting rid of my smart phone, and then moving to a place where I won’t hear or know, unless they come after me for whatever reason. Even then, I probably won’t see it coming. As for enemies? If you are working for America, but one that is socialist, crony capitalist, amoral and immoral somehow at the same time, it doesn’t matter. I will be civil, but just on my way out. We are enemies.

I just hope you get what you wanted. I just hope to be far enough away that it doesn’t reach out and murder me too.
