The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

As if opening the gates of our country to 10-15 million migrants from some of the most violent places on the planet isn’t destabilizing?

Apologies to the board but a reality check is required...

Biden wanted Congress to address the problem with a bipartisan solution, you know the way America is supposed to work. (Not like a dictator who throws executive orders at everything.)

Unfortunately...
Fear mongering insurrectionist Donald Trump killed the bipartisan bill that would have addressed the border problem...
He said, "The Senate is better off not making a deal, even if it means the country will close up for a while."

Life long Republican Mitt Romney summed up the situation nicely...
"The border is a very important issue for Donald Trump, and the fact that he would communicate to Republican senators and congresspeople that
he doesn’t want us to solve the border problem because he wants to blame Joe Biden (Kamala Harris) for it is really appalling."

BTW The bill was fully endorsed by the National Border Patrol Council, the Chamber of Commerce, the Wall Street Journal and supported by 66% of Americans.
