I guess I'm just trying to separate the wheat from the chaff here. Closing the borders to unimpeded immigration is a good thing. Forcing English on immigrants is something else. Yes, the uni-party is real. Trump is great on some of these issues. He is also a horrible grifter taking full advantage of his position to enrich himself. There is no perfect president. All we can do is compare him to what we could have had (Kamla, Biden, etc.). In this regard, I am happy to have Trump. But we should be careful not to fall into a trap of hero worship. He is a stromg vectoe for crony capitalists who would allow all forms of socialism/communism at the drop of a hat if it increased their bottom line.

the logic is simple, if you move to China, South Korea, Russia, basically almost all countries, if you don't speak the language of the country you end up being a burden, stuck in low wage jobs, but If you understand the language, you can easily function and adapt into the country that's the logic in most countries and that's the logic Trump wants to take us back to again. It's that simple.

Weird. I dont want to be more like any of those countries.

Well it's too late. Trump is taking us toward that system. Just stay in California, your values seem to align with the California government, I can't see California adapting to Trump's policies as fast as the other states. You will be happy there.

Lol. I didnt mean to upset you. I think you went full trumptard sometimes. Never go full trumptard! I agree with a lot of Trump policies. I certainly don't align with California's government.

I was always Trump even before Trump came into the politics. I always said that Trump was too soft and he needs to be much tougher. I didn't get my policies and values from Trump. I have always had those values. We need to be tougher and I have always said that many Americans are a bunch of wimps down there. We need to toughen them up. They are too soft. You seem to have a bit of the hippy personality which is common in California and the California government likes that.

It's just not a black and white world. It's not red team vs blue team. I grew up in a very intensely multi-cultural hodgepodge. It's not really that bad to live this way. On the other hand, DEI and woke policies are destroying our way of life. I see that and agree something should be done. It just doesn't have to be so harsh. There is a lot of room for the grey-area. I am very pro-freedom. Not open-border freedom, but I am a civil-rights maximalist. Some of the policies that Trump supporters advocate for go too far. Don't forget that Trump was a democrat until he saw a path to the Whitehouse.

Trump is neither Republican or Democrat, only on paper. He's only using Republican base to advance his agenda and win because the Republican base is the majority in the US. He can't really come out and say exactly his political values and policies because he would not win. Politics is about herding the sheep into the direction that will cause you to win. That's exactly what he is doing. "It doesn't have to be so harsh" because the school system has taught everyone to be docile and soft and think that way. I stand with him not because he is Republican or Democrat, but because he is being down the whole Republican socialist and Democrat socialist system. We are heading into a much fairer and libertarian system that you might find "harsh" You can already see it now, how the US military isn't negotiating with terrorists and is instead just bombing them. Which I support.

No. It has nothing to do with the school system (which I am not defending). Instead, I see the harshness of force to be akin to socialism, which we both dislike. Socialism is force. Forcing anti-socialism is also very socialist-like. Trading socialism for crony-capitalism or corporatism will not grant you more freedom.
