Discontent over immigration and the economy fuel Trump's Super Tuesday romp

Donald Trump is sailing into battle against President Joe Biden powered by anger over the two policy issues that have driven his comeback campaign so far: immigration and the economy.

Trump came close to sweeping the board in the 16 “Super Tuesday” Republican primary races, putting him on the verge of clinching the party’s nomination and allowing him to train his full fire on Biden ahead of the November election.

Stricter immigration reform proposed by Democrats that Republicans ran away from after having their demands, and a booming economy by every significant metric presided over by the current Democratic president.

Good targets.

Discontent over immigration - which GOP purposely did everything not to fix - and economy - which GOP purposely did everything not to help - fueled Trump’s Super Tuesday Romp.

When GOP gets elected, they do everything to make problems worse just so they can run elections on the very same problems they created.

Tell it like it is. They love that.

And their nicotine and meth addled followers fall for it every damn time. They are better off with a dem in office but they vote for the ones who make their lives worse and promise to keep doing so.

I kid you not. I recently saw my fellow classmates - who froth at mouth about “welfare state” apply for food stamps. Did I mention they vote for republicans every election?

Humanity is a lost cause

Humanity has always been a lost cause. We are still dumb animals, some less than others but still animals.

The right has also started saying the quiet part out loud more specifically at cpac. Their goal is to end democracy and these people are either all for that or too dumb to believe it will happen despite it already happening step by step.

Honestly animals are far smarter than humans at the moment.

No animal wipes out ALL their food sources within a region.

No animal shits in their drinking water all the time.

No animal decides they’re king and subjugates all other species to unquestionably obey.

No animal poisons food sources for profit.

You’ve got some of that wrong. The only reason animals don’t use up all of their food source is because other animals further up the chain use them for food. When you remove the predators that feed on deer for example, you end up with an unchecked population of animals that strip everything edible and then some die of starvation.

You’re also attributing human qualities to animals that haven’t yet evolved to where we are mentally.

No humans actually shit in their drinking water. Not sure where you get this. If you have a stream or river moving fast enough than defecating in it is smarter than anywhere near where you may be camped but animals don’t even think that far ahead.

Animals also roam based on the season (like humans used to), they can shit all over an area and by the time they come back it’s become food to eat.

We are on the same page for the bigger picture but you need to work on your argument if you want to be taken seriously.

No humans actually shit in their drinking water.

4500 hours of untreated sewage dumped into River Mole (UK) area so far this year

Raw sewage leak that dumped 230 million litres in Red River (Manitoba) fixed, but system repairs becoming urgent

City Releases 1.2 Million Gallons of Sewage into Manatee River (Florida)

That’s different than actually shitting in the drinking supply. And sewage is a lot more than just shit and piss from people. It’s also everything else that makes it down the drain and through the sewers. Though some of us have septic tanks so we don’t have to worry about that.

Stop trying so hard to be right and just accept that your argument here made no sense. Be better next time.

Oh please. Sycophancy fueled his romp. He is their god. He could welcome immigrants and say he’d make the economy worse and they’d still vote for him.

I like how some media is all “Romps, Fuels, Swaggers, Unstoppable” with this douche but with Biden is all “furrowed brow, troubled”.

Not one of Trump’s contenders ever had a chance and it’s stupid that the media is pretending that they did.

Stovetop ,

I think there was the shred of hope he’d be found ineligible to run and anyone left in the race (Haley) would be the de facto candidate.

If anything, I think the Supreme Court decision preventing states from removing him from the ballot was the bigger hit to her campaign than the primary results.

ThrowawayPermanente ,

If he made the economy worse that would own the libs and therefore be a Good Thing

There’s a single sort of exception. The one time he said something that some of them didn’t agree with was when he bragged about his vaccine program. A handful of people booed. And now he’s a full-on antivaxxer.

I misread the headline as “Discontent over immigration and the economy fuel Trump’s Super Tuesday coup” and agreed.
