    They know which side their bread is buttered on. I certainly know who to vote for, it's been so glaringly obvious.

    That is a good sign, although considering the alternative, now more non-Hispanics are coming into the country illegally they will lose their majority edge. Since 2000 there has been a 155% of Hispanics, although if the new trend of other nationality's gain power thru numbers, their power will be diminished.
    Another song came to mind.

    Well said Joy, I watched it too until nausea overcame me:confused: All I heard after the first, short blurb, sounded more like threats. Unite America?? I don't think so, unless it's for them to unite their bank accounts with hers.

    I suspect Trump's first targets will be the gang members and those who entered the country illegally with criminal records in other places. He may just cut off the benefits and give them assistance in leaving the country. The ones who are working and stable with families, I believe he will leave alone.

    I have been a union worker and I totally support unions. However I'm not sure this was a union (Teamsters) issue. Highway safety should be enforced by the DPS in each state and at the many checkpoints those drivers are supposed to be stopping at. (Weigh stations, inspection stations, etc.) I didn't follow that particular issue so I don't really know enough about it.

    I have no problem discussion religion; I'm just not an authority on the subject.

    I hear about indoctrination in schools, but I have no personal experience with it. I have friends who are teachers, my next door neighbor is a principal, and it seems that the single biggest issue in schools today is the lack of discipline and parental involvement. The cellphone generation is totally out of touch with respect for authority.

    I believe with the majority(s) in Congress, Trump will be able to accomplish a lot. I hope they don't squander the opportunity like they did last time.

    There are still a few RINOS in Congress who will try to thwart him.

    Beth, you don't have to be a teamster to protect your civil right to protest.
    Parental discipline is the problem kids face, but then if you correct your child, you can lose them and your freedom.
    Times have changed so guess we let it go too far now no turning back.

    Unions have their place, my dad was a union member for 40 yrs and I was never a union member in my 40 yrs of employment, no need in mine.

    The school unions here kept children locked out of schools for a couple yrs during covid, that Covid MESSSSSS.

    The Presidential election is decided, but there is cheating now taking place in Arizona, Wisconsin, and Nevada. Florida can count all their votes promptly, but those states can't seem to count votes without finding "lost" ballots,, boxes of ballots stored in the ceiling--that occurred in Washington state and decided the gubernatorial election that year.

    That might be ok, unless the illegals are holding the family hostage:rolleyes: I'd laugh about saying that but it isn't beyond the realm of possibility imo. I still wonder if people need hired help because Americans won't do the work, is it because it's not a living wage? I mean we used to pick beans every season, and help with haying, but we didn't need to pay for things at home, at least I didn't. I had to spend my money on school-clothes.

    Seasonal migrants have always been something I thought was good because their earnings bought them way more in Mexico. I can see having to make compromises on things that are reasonable, but I'm hard pressed to hear anything reasonable coming from a democrat, not these days.
