President Donald Trump - J.D. Vance Administration

[FLVOL_79]

This clip belongs here. It's melting my brain. The journalist tries so hard not to humiliate Trump and Trump is hellbent on making himself look like an absolute bozo. I cannot believe anybody thinks this dude has a handle on anything.

The photoshop was so fake that I felt stupid for initially thinking that ICE was trying to pass it off as real. How does that fool the POTUS for weeks and weeks he doesn't know the truth? Does he know the truth now? If he's this easy to fool, is he in charge at all?

This is the guy people think is going to save America...this reminds me of my grandma sending me pictures of the new Navy stealth fighter she saw on facebook..and it was screen grabs from some movie called Stealth..

The 14th Amendment really is crystal clear on birthright citizenship. That's not a hill anyone should want to die on. The Trump Administration knows their case is a loser. They just want to show their base that they at least tried to end "anchor babies." It's political theater.

You’re right. The simple solution is deport parents immediately and give them the option to take their child or put them into the custody of the government.

 

[FLVOL_79]

They are going to employ 20,000 people for "the rest of time"? Bold strategy let's see how this plays out..

These cabinet meetings remind me of my old sales meetings…get up there proclaim successes and rah rahs…I shudder

Believe you said baa. When you didn’t have a problem with Trump or his money.

Trumps money doesn't concern me. Money he gifts from the US does.

Just in 4 short years, 81M were smart enough to not vote for an old white guy in a basement.

There were no 81 yo white guys running

 

[Majors]

There were no 81 yo white guys running

You’re proving the point. May want to reread again before proceeding. 81M stands for 81 million voters not an 81 year old white guy.

Pre-2014 Trump, good.
Republican Trump, oh hell no.

 

[Ritzwatch]

How about give some sort of "veto power" for EOs to the Senate or State Governors?

Congress would not need veto power over EOs if they did their job rather than outsourcing to the administrative state.

But, it is a feature, not a bug to these people. Vague enough legislation gives them carte blanche whenever they are in power. And when they are not, they get to bitch about the other guys running roughshod over the people with EOs. Win/Win.

Trump is transgender?

That might help explain a lot.

 

[EasternVol]

You can ignore context all you want. It's well known that suits and ties are prevalent among gang culture.

The Gambinos think so.

 

[lawgator1]

Oh well. Not surprised, nobody looks long term anymore.

The Trump Recession is underway.

 

[hog88]

The Trump Recession is underway.

Sorry but the definition was changed by the last administration.

So far, only Harrison has not issued EOs. If he can do it, I don't see why others couldn't do it, too.

Are you in favor of keeping the precedent as it is now wrt EOs?

Are you suggesting that Presidents should all die after a month in office? 'Cause that's why he didn’t issue any EO's.

 

[EasternVol]

Hold on now..the 1A and 2A are challenged constantly on interpretation and the evolution of guns..remember the military and only muskets arguments set by the DNC...the 14th could be interpreted differently now due the influx of illegal immigration or invasion.

The syntax of the 2A isn't extremely clear for those of us not born in the early 1700's. The wording of the 14th is clear: anyone born in the US and subject to US jurisdiction (which is everyone without diplomatic immunity) is a citizen.

This was discussed as the conversation advanced. I trust you are up to speed on my error and the additional info of presidents with minimal EOs?

Reminds me of North Korea. Dear Leader vibes all around.

I go by the traditional two consecutive quarters of negative growth and we fell off a cliff today, on the 101st day of his administration. Hard to see us having a plus-growth quarter coming up with the Trump Tariffs having put the skids on a lot of business investment plans.

What is US jurisdiction mean?

 

[tvolsfan]

What is US jurisdiction mean?

Where US law applies.

 

[OrangeTsar]

They absolutely should not have done that, I 100 pct agree.

However, that is not the subject at hand.

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain

I'll take that as you don't favor innauguration + 30 day lifespan limits, noted.

What is US jurisdiction mean?

It means subject to the laws of the US.

Luckily the wording of the 2A came with a lot of example and context from the ones who wrote it.

Fortunately we have Scalia’s textual interpretation which is the basis for our applicable ruling explaining to all of us plebes exactly what the 2a says.
