    No. Americans do not want this

    Then they would’ve voted.

    By not voting they are saying they are ok with either option.

    That’s how democracy works. Voters can bury their heads in the sand, it doesn’t make the politicians go away.

      Getting voted in is NOT permission to break the law.

      He’s illegally bypassing Congress with his actions. Doesn’t matter if this is what your dumbass voted for, it’s not how this works.

        Sounds an awful lot like you’re trying to convince yourself rather than me.

        Doesn’t matter if this is what your dumbass voted for

        The projection doesn’t help.

        Trump has been pretty clear that this was his plan. Anyone surprised by this is just willfully ignorant.

          I shouldn’t be surprised by your lack of reading comprehension. I’m not really sure what you’re even responding to, none of it lines up with anything I just said.

          And again, telling you he’s going to break the law doesn’t mean he’s allowed to break the law even if he is voted in after saying it.

          This is that half of America is functionally illiterate nonsense the rest of us have to deal with.

            Back at it again with the projection.

            And again, telling you he’s going to break the law doesn’t mean he’s allowed to break the law even if he is voted in after saying it.

            No idea why you keep bringing this up. Never once did I mention anything about this.

            none of it lines up with anything I just said.

            Because nothing you said lines up with what I said. I’ve been talking about how a non-vote is a vote. It means being ok with either option, and since the majority didn’t vote, that means they are ok with what’s happening.

            You started talking about laws and such, probably to calm a guilty conscience.

              You keep acting like votes mean permission to break the law. Our that people who generally don’t pay attention to politics would be fine with someone they didn’t vote for it against breaking the law. This is a dipshit logical stance to take. So pretending you’re not the store one here when you try to say idiotic shit like this. Like did you think this through in your head?

              Yes, I keep bringing it up because you boot lickers love to ignore the context of everything you argue about. Abstraction is the only chance you have at winning an argument against such an obviously one sided discussion.

                ???

                What are you on about. What I am saying is that this is what Americans wanted. Why is that so hard to grasp.

                And again stop the projecting. I am not a trump supporter.
