I've lived through a few of these things now and I can promise you, the endless shrieking about how any republican who doesn't suck leftoids off on everything they want never stops and the republican is always painted as the next incarnation of abject evil. They have went far overboard with Trump, a lot farther than they ever dared go against Bush, but the left has been acting like anyone who disagrees with them is absolute evil since the aforementioned weatherunderground bullshit allowed literal terrorists to infect all levels of academia and entertainment and fester into a tumor. They have been indoctrinated since the 70s to view anyone right of the dogma they as a group accept as an enemy and an existential crisis who will bring down the union etc

Diet coke. I just can't into alcohol. I don't know what genetic mutation I have that makes it all taste like paint thinner.

have you tried Cider? hard cider has enough sugar content to not make it have that "beer taste" and the alcohol content is mostly the same. angry orchard is one of the biggest ciders out there. every regular bar has it in bottle form if you want to try it.

Catch and Release is a necessity like it or not, it's physically impossible to house every single illegal immigrant caught to be sent to a detention center, so people deemed "low-risk" such as children and families are let go, its something the Trump administration tried to get rid of the practice when they were in power but couldn't due to the impracticality of the whole thing.

The easy solution is not to allow them to enter at all, and when caught immediately eject them. (After collecting their information, prints, DNA, etc, so if they're ever caught again illegally within the US they can be summarily executed.) It isn't difficult, logistically.

Interesting fact, Income taxes disproportionately affect the richest people in the country, hmmmmm...

I'm not sure how tariffs can replace income tax being removed, the purpose of tariffs is to reduce the amount of imports, not to make money from it.

One more important thing to ask, if we're gonna reduce the amount of stuff we import, does that mean everything starts getting more expensive?, american labor isn't cheap after all if we're going homemade in manufacturing stuff again.

It does and it doesn't. This has been a constant midwit tier talking point but now that I'm not blisteringly drunk while explaining this, I'll sum it up very briefly. The bottom line is, importing is fucking expensive. Far more expensive than you could ever possibly imagine. The costs are often just moved around to other places. The reason the US moved away from manufacturing isn't just labor costs, no. The labor costs are paltry compared to the cost of ocean freight. It's the fucking regulations placed on everything. We didn't sell ourselves overseas to avoid paying for cheap labor, we did it to get away from taxes and regulations. The government instituted policies to make global shipping happen. It wasn't an arbitrary decision that companies all made on their own, it was a direct push by the Federal government to move all of our manufacturing overseas. They used every alphabet agency in the book in order to do it. If Trump were to absolutely gut the EPA, FDA, and other alphabet orgs, like he has allegedly planned to, then no costs wouldn't surge and if they did, it wouldn't last.

In reality, globalization causes inflation. Part of what people don't understand is that globalization makes it easier for me as a manufacturer and distributor to charge whatever the flying fuck I want for goods, because I have a million reasons to justify the cost increase. The fastest way to cause costs to skyrocket isn't by adding labor costs, it's by adding middle men. All globalization has done for the US is add thousands of middle men all dipping their hands into the pot of gold. You cannot survive as a country of imports. You HAVE to export.
