We're either a nation of fools, or just gullible as hell...or both.

Trump pointed his finger towards at immigrants as being the problem and he was going to do something to fix it and make America great again. And they believed him and elected him. Thus the EO's covering immigration which has stalled. Most of them still vehemently support him because they don't know any better. How do you reason with people like this?

We are a nation of immigrants. He indeed is doing something about us, isn't he. We are the problem, he will eliminate us.

There are two properties up for sale on our court, when they go the sales will be noted in the Post. If they get good prices and since Canada still considers me to be a citizen I might sell out and go back home. The only hold this place has on me is that my Florence loved it. She said that I had given her the only home she had lived in for more than three years and since she had picked it out with me it had everything she wanted. After she left home at eighteen she led a rather nomadic life.

Give it time Raj, give it time they will wake up. It is rather like the story of the city dweller who saw a farmer in a field beating a donkey with a big stick. He stopped and asked why the farmer was beating the poor animal. The farmer replied I am not beating it, I am just trying to get its attention.

Before Trump a large section of the American public view immigration as a
significant issue.

Continuing resolution land ahead?

Seriously?
Other than the talk radio echo chamber, I never got that impression.

The number one issue facing humans is getting so little attention by the number one contributing country. I fear we as a species are doomed. We are already experiencing the effects.

A significant "manufactured" issue.

Just like transgender and gay issues, all right wing noise machine manufactured issues nobody would otherwise GIS about.
