    "Allow for broad authority" What are you saying? He has authority. You mean flexible authority? The Pres is the branch of govt that can define a threat to the US and can define immigration policy because of that authority.

    The leftists ran to airports like IDIOTS to block travellers and yell/hold  anti-Trump placards--and the SUPREME COURT upheld the executivs branch authority FROM THE CONSTITUTION and liberal Supreme Court judges AGREED.

     "according to the ACLU?"" A leftist, social justice professional sueing org. HAHHA, you are so funny b/c you don't realize what an idiot you are.

     

    The SUPREME COURT is going to uphold the UNCONSTITUTIONALTY of DACA and the CANCELLATION of DACA. It is on their calendar. Until then, I don't give a turd abt 105 law professors and the ACLU. Dumb/

    During Obama's proxy war w Iran He also dropped pallets of cash on Terhan. We were funding both sides of the Syrian war. One of the groups we were arming was Al Nusra. Al Nusra renounced Al Qaeda to receive american weapons.new_crazy

    So while Saddam was terrible at least he kept the root problems under control and now we see what happens when you remove a dictator who crushes the religious fighting, then the extremist get to start attacking their enemies and more people die, the country infrastructure crumbles and much worse damage taking much longer to repair ensues.

    Given that it is a FACT we have never stopped the religious fighting in that part of the world, what else is there left to do? Do we remove a dicator like we did in Iraq and burn trillions of dollars and millions of lives so now the religious groups can form their own power bases and fight each other until the end of the world? Is that a solid solution? Is a solution that we try and occupy these places and force democracy on them and kill millions of US soldiers, many trillions of dollars and millions of civilians?

    I'd take the approach which does the LEAST damage and gives the greatest chance at freedoms possible and scrap the altruistic democratic christian whatever approach which NEVER stands a chance and only does more harm. There is no way anyone can think that removing Assad will make things better...even if the guy is removed and the place is nuked, everyone dead all that does is give more real estate for the neighboring religious extremists to fight each other...because there is an endless flow of religious hate from country to country right there and it will never stop until the world is destroyed.


    Well said Mr. Moderator...But like Saban astutely points out..this smells of a newly emboldened U.S. supported Israel trying to get their ideal result...I agree Wall..we can NEVER solve this entire regions religious conflicts...

    Wouldn't be surprised that DJT used this as a "distraction"..... exercising the  moral case against  the  usage of Chemical  weapons....Let;s just stay the fuc*k out of all of this b.s....Nothing good can result........History teaches us ALL this..

    We need WORLD ..especially now...

    I'd take the approach which does the LEAST damage and gives the greatest chance at freedoms possible and scrap the altruistic democratic christian whatever approach which NEVER stands a chance and only does more harm. There is no way anyone can think that removing Assad will make things better...even if the guy is removed and the place is nuked, everyone dead all that does is give more real estate for the neighboring religious extremists to fight each other...because there is an endless flow of religious hate from country to country right there and it will never stop until the world is destroyed.


    Well said Mr. Moderator...But like Saban astutely points out..this smells of a newly emboldened U.S. supported Israel trying to get their ideal result...I agree Wall..we can NEVER solve this entire regions religious conflicts...

    Wouldn't be surprised that DJT used this as a "distraction"..... exercising the  moral case against  the  usage of Chemical  weapons....Let;s just stay the fuc*k out of all of this b.s....Nothing good can result........History teaches us ALL this..

    We need WORLD ..especially now...

    Sorry I got you mixed up with BWS.  By the way your argument that he broke the law in the Constiution wouldn't hold up in court as you know.  I like your passion though as misguided as it is.
