You realize if no one picks peaches or anything else you starve, right?lol.....try a little context.
Who aspires to raise their children to pick peaches for a living?
What she said was 100% correct and appropriate.
Some suggestions are: more border security guards, more technology on the front end. On the back end: completely overhaul the process of detention, vetting, and deportation. Make Border jumpers not eligible for asylum. I'm not against having an increased military presence as a deterrent.Curious. What is your definition of improved border security or better yet, what course of actions are necessary to improve the border and reduce illegal crossings?
From a study published in the American Journal of Political Science, by University of Minnesota researchers:
1) Individuals with a high level of trust in institutions are less likely to endorse conspiracy theories. Individuals with a high level of skepticism in institutions are more likely to endorse a conspiracy theory.
2) It is only logical then, that a Trump supporter would be of an open mind to a conspiracy theory because Trump has spent so much time disparaging the competency and credibility of institutions, including his own Department of Justice and the Attorney General he appointed, as well as the United States Intelligence Community. Throughout the 2016 Presidential campaign, he frequently stated, "The system is rigged, folks."
3) A highly knowledgeable individual is more likely to engage in an ideologically motivated endorsement of a conspiracy, if they believe the world is an untrustworthy place. This also fits Trump supporters because for them an individual's own personal integrity is not as important as it is for someone to "fight the system".
4) Conservatives and liberals knowledgeable about politics are less likely than their unknowledgeable counterparts to endorse incongruent conspiracies but a conservative is more likely to suspend a level of disbelief, if the conspiracy is ideologically suitable to them. This gets back to #3, for the conservative Trump supporter, the integrity of the individual is not as important as his will to "fight the system". That is birtherism in a nutshell. Trump promised proof Obama wasn't born in the United States and never delivered. That is not as important to his supporters as "sticking it to the man" or someone who will "fight the system".
Take that for what it's worth. Probably means nothing to you but I found it interesting and I think there is a shred of truth to those points. Republicans really have the conspiracies going these days at an incredible rate. Almost paranoid.
How do you explain the TrumPutin fairytale?
What else are left wing high school dropouts supposed to do?lol.....try a little context.

Pure unadulterated Hate. The hate is so much that they are willing to believe anything as long as it ends with Trump out of office . I thought at one time Pence sitting there waiting to be president would terrify the left ( probably does ) but the hate for Trump is greater than the fear of super conservative Pence .
If you have to overlook Russia's attempts to interfere and the people close to Trump's campaign with ties to Russia that have lied about it, then I can see why you want to say because everyone hates Trump. You can't get anymore head in the sand.

With the cooperation of Manafort, Mueller should know every detail about the Trump Tower meeting. If nothing is there then there is nothing there. To say there is nothing there because they have yet to indict anyone on such conspiracy charges is putin the buggy in front of the horse.I’ve never said Russia didn’t try to interfere or deny they did just like we do to other countries . I have yet to see any collusion type charges brought against anyone , it’s always some other charge. Soon?

My life was great before, is great now, and will be great after.
I notice you made no comment about the fact she was valedictorian and has 3 degrees; the last one from Yale Law. Typical, spew your ignorance and then ignore every response that proves your biased lunacy.
If they would have only chanted something clever like "lock her up". Maybe "impeach now". I would say that would be about equally idiotic.She said agriculture and hospitality. Then pivoted into talking about environmental jobs... as if the hotel maids and day laborers have a future in solar energy. It was one of those incoherent moments in front of a friendly crowd that you like to rip Trump for.
Yes I do. Do you honestly believe that the Deep State is trying to frame Trump but can't?Do you honestly think that Mueller , his team of 15 lawyers , lord only knows how many paper pushers that actually do the paperwork for them , have something that would damage Trump and it not leak out before a midterm election that is so close and has everything riding on it, in Washington , where the #resistance is everywhere and there’s no such thing as secrets ?
I didn’t say anything about framing anyone I said leak what they have . Deep state ? Wait don’t you laugh at deep state claims ? I’m not claiming deep state , im talking about “ no name official sources” like CNN and NYT does.Yes I do. Do you honestly believe that the Deep State is trying to frame Trump but can't?
