First of all, there is no such thing as an "illegal alien". They are either documented or undocumented. It's hard to tell anymore if people are being derogatory or just too ignorant to know any better. But I don't mind correcting them every single time.

Secondly, no. I don't think undocumented aliens should be able to vote for one very simple reason. They don't have legitimate jobs that siphon taxes from their earnings. I think the right to vote should be based on their contributions not some idiot status that doesn't really mean anything. That means that I don't think those lazy, good-for-nothing people who don't work or prefer to steal but have citizenship simply because they were born here should have a right to vote either. Being born here doesn't mean shit. Most of the rats and fleas in America were born here too. That's how senseless it is to grant someone a privilege, simply because of where they were born.

As for undocumented immigrants, they are not currently allowed to vote and there's no plans to make that happen either. So, it's really not a problem. You might THINK it is if you believe the conspiracy theories.

Do the Democrats depend votes from undocumented immigrants? No. That's what the losers on the right want you think but it's simply not true. The nugget of truth that might be spawning this conspiracy theory is that Democrats do get a lot of support from naturalized citizens... These are the documented immigrants that took the extra step to become citizens. Most of these immigrants didn't cross the southern border. Most of them flew here from Europe and Asia with visas to take highly paid jobs for which they are better qualified than many American victims of failed systems like homeschooling.

It just fits in with the widely observed truth that well-educated people in the middle-class don't vote Republican anymore.

It is a fact of life in our country today that there are people who live to be offended. They’re called Progressives. They are offended by Confederate statues and the Confederate Flag, by monuments that they say celebrate white supremacy and colonialism, by Trump supporters, by Trump himself, and by those who refuse to get on their knees and grovel before Black Lives Matter.

Well, I am not one of them, and I’ve got a big revelation for them.

Here are ten things for which I will never apologize.

1. I’m white I was born white and I don’t feel guilty about slavery, segregation, the Trail of Tears or the treatment of Chinese railroad workers because (now get this) I didn’t have anything to do with any of these.

I’m no more responsible for these injustices than the Indian of today is responsible for the Black Hole of Calcutta.

The idea of racial guilt is absurd. White privilege and white supremacy is a myth. Where are the White Miss America Contest, White History Month and White Entertainment Television? Where are the white-only colleges and universities, white-only dating sites, or white-only bars and restaurants? Where are the quotas and set-asides for Caucasians?

Do we need to address these things? To some degree, yes, but not by rioting, tearing down statues, looting and destroying businesses, and changing names of sports teams and products. We can and should address these things with civility and dialogue by all concerned.

2. I love America I believe in American exceptionalism. America pioneered representative government guided by a written constitution.

We fought a war with 620,000 dead to end slavery. We defeated Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan and liberated the death camps.

We saved Europe from tyranny, twice, in the 20th century and then, with American investment, innovation, resourcefulness and generosity, rebuilt the economies of 17 nations of Europe and the nation of Japan.

Our arms kept communism from conquering the world. Our factories and workshops produced a flood of inventions and products that benefited humanity.

We built the greatest most respected medical system in the world and earned more Nobel Prizes in Medicine than any other nation on earth by a factor of ten!

What country has done as much especially in 244 years, a relative hiccup in time?

3. I’m a Christian I love God and his son Jesus Christ. I am proud of my faith, but I do not wear it on my sleeve.

I respect all religions. I also believe in the State of Israel. Modern Israel is a miracle and a fulfillment of Biblical prophecy. Israel is a beleaguered outpost of civilization in a savage region and a bulwark against the forces of darkness.

The next time your physician gives you a shot of penicillin, look up who discovered this miracle drug.

4. My heroes include George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson, Abraham Lincoln, and Teddy Roosevelt, Washington and Lincoln were indispensable men.

Washington defeated the greatest army on earth and led our country for the first quarter-century of its existence.

Lincoln saved the Union, abolished slavery, and inspired generations with his rhetoric.

The Declaration of Independence flames with the eloquence of Thomas Jefferson, arguably the most intelligent man to ever serve as President of the United States.

Andrew Jackson, the hero of the Battle of New Orleans, represented the pioneer spirit.

Teddy Roosevelt led the charge into the 20th century, the American Century.

Together, they gave us a country so free that malcontents like Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Talib can dump on it without fear of reprisal.

Indeed, if you listen to all the complaints voiced by all the liberal/progressive democrats and communists like NYC Mayor Bill De Blasio, you are hard-pressed to understand why there are so few people leaving our country! It is harder still to understand why, with all of our so-called problems, millions of people from around the world want to come here!

5. I support our Police, and I believe police officers are generally decent/honorable men and women who are doing a difficult, dangerous, often thankless job You couldn't pay me enough today to do it. Besides risking their lives every time they go to work, they bear the added burden of listening to insults shouted at them by spoiled, ungrateful people many of whom are wet behind their ears and probably still wearing diapers.

Police today have become the punching bag for the nation and, sadly, they receive little or no respect or support from their superiors and the gaggle of incompetent democrat mayors around the country. And, like our military, they are all that stands between us and the abyss.

When the Twin Towers were attacked in New York City on 9/11, we were reminded by liberals to not judge all Muslims by the actions of a few. Yet today, mobs are willing to judge all police by the actions of a few police. Explain that one to me.

Defunding the police because of a few "bad apples" is just plain STUPID because the end result will be more crime. If you find that difficult to comprehend, just check the crime statistics for these liberal democrat-controlled cities: New York, Chicago, Detroit, Minneapolis, Los Angeles, San Francisco, St. Louis, Newark, and Trenton, and check out the number of shootings and stabbings on any given weekend! You would think these cities are in a war zone.

6. I support the Second Amendment, and I own weapons It’s one of the reasons why Japan thought long and hard about attacking us. It’s a major reason why we’ll never have a Holocaust here. Europe has had the divine right of kings, religious persecution, Communism and Nazism. We have the Second Amendment.

The anarchy in our streets, coupled with calls to defund the police, only serves to underscore the need for civilian gun ownership.

7. Reparations are racial plunder. The idea of racial guilt is an obscenity from the dark recesses of 19th-century European history There’s no group in the world that hasn’t been oppressed at some point in time.

Will Denmark pay reparations to the English for the Danelaw? Will Mongols and Manchus compensate the Chinese? Will Japan compensate the Chinese for the Rape of Nanjing? How about the English and the Irish, the Mongols and the Russians, the Cossacks and Jews? Will bi-racial Barack Obama take money out of one pocket and put it in another?

8. There are only two genders. Deal with it Gender is determined at birth by your DNA. Just as you can’t change your DNA, you can’t change your sex. You should not be able to force others to participate in your fantasy. Reality isn’t hateful.

9. I support President Trump and will vote for him in November 2020 The president loves this country. He really does have Israel’s back. Who else is strong enough to stand up to China and Iran?

Unlike almost everyone else in Washington, as a businessman, he understands finance and the market economy.

He's giving us judges who deliberate instead of legislating. And he has the guts not to be liked.

Prior to COVID-19, President Trump built the greatest most prosperous economy in the world and he gave power back to the people.

He understands that we are a people who happen to have a government, not the other way around, and this American experiment in which government derives its just power from the consent of the governed is still the most unique, treasured, and progressive form of government in the history of mankind.

10. You have a right to disagree with me, but you do not have a right to try to silence me Being offended doesn't trump the First Amendment.

Attacking statues and assaulting those with different values is the kind of thing we saw in Nazi Germany and Stalin's Russia.

Generations of Americans died for freedom of speech, not freedom to suppress speech.

To say you're offended is merely an attempt to prioritize your feelings above everyone and everything else. It's not an argument, but a call to end discussion an admission of intellectual impotence.

Being offended isn't a mark of virtue; it's a sign that you're a big, blubbering baby who will throw a tantrum if you can't get your way. Wagging fingers and shouting obscenities at me is just plain disrespectful, and might get you a punch in the nose.

You have the right to be offended, just as I have the right to "Not give a shit"

. Not if he views only the tapes from the liberal media/ commentators. I watched these protesters as they were led on the tour, even the one dressed in that silly garb with the horns, who put his feet on Pelosi’s desk, police were there and not arresting him nor the others who were there taking their tour. The Capitol police just followed them around. Liz Chaney’s videos she allowed were only the ones she wanted the people to see. Censorship is a terrible way to fool Americans.

Now if they want to see videos of a real ‘insurrection’ they only need to review the videos of the crazies burning down parts of Oregon, one building had people inside. They cordoned off the streets, caused at least two billion dollars in damage. ANTIFA, BLM along with these instigators of total violence went nuts breaking our laws and injuring their own police who were working to put a stop to their long protesting and destroying part of their own city.

Well this celebrity and criminal did a dammed fine job of running this country 2016 to 2020 then your lying useless buddy Barak O'Biden moved into the WH. He's in the WH but he's not running the country....other assholes are pulling his strings and writing his notes to read during interviews.

Insurrectionists have no government protection !
Why should they ?
They were trying to overthrow a government they hate , now they’re begging to be protected by it. !
I would’ve hanged half of them and sent the rest to Guantanamo to Rot !!!!!
Americans don’t act like that .
Nor should the government they tried to overthrow be forced to protect them .
Hang them all. !
It’s the only answer .
As their own sympathizers watch them hang , it may cause a thought process with a better outcome.
