Who was the last president who at least remembered the guys in prison, a second chance, vocational training, and more in his message to the nation?
This was the message of three centuries.
President Trump has surprised everyone with such a calm but specific message which has overcome eight years of a former president Obama's speeches making empty promises.
The phrase implies that immigrants are hurting Americans. My question to you is how are you being hurt? Please be specific with links.
Nope.
The phrase implies that in his administration Americans are first.
The president of Mexico should say and do the same, and for him to say that "Mexicans are first" so Mexicans under a good president shouldn't have to leave their country and on the contrary, stay over there and make their country prosperous.
The presidents of the countries from which illegal immigrants are invading the US must follow the great example of president Trump, about how to care for the people who elected him as their president.
Mexico suffers from an entrenched oligarchy that claims a disportant share of the national income resulting in a huge income and wealth inequality.
This results from the oligarchy dominance of the political process and control of the national media.
This is exactly the same as the Republican/movement conservative goals in the US. The Republicans and conservatives in the US are trying to turn the US into a Mexican type economy, and nothing that Trump has actually done demonstrates that he is any different.
The wealthy in the US have been aided immeasurably by the support of a deluded sector of the US voters who value talk over actions, comforting lies over hard truths, racism, xenophobia and the politics of division over any hint of the ability or the willingness to compromise to be able to govern with the realities of today. The only thing that Trump and the Republicans were able to do in their first year in complete control of the government was to fulfill their duty to their only valued constituents and pass a large tax cut for the wealthy, the permanent part of which goes 82% to the top 1%.
Virtually everything that they did exposed the lies that they told to the deluded. They didn't have any plan to replace ObamaCare that would result in better, cheaper care. They haven't been able to pass a budget well into the fiscal year. Everything that they have done and everything that they have proposed will increase the deficit, and their only answer is to cut Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, proven electoral suicide. They are now trying to derail the investigation into the Trump campaign cooperating with the Russians to provide Trump with his narrow minority victory by attacking our premier intelligence, law enforcement and justice institutions. They have been unable to fill their government positions, which based on the quality of the people that have been put into the executive branch is apparently because they haven't found enough inept people to fill the positions. It is not that impressive that they claim that government doesn't work because they are incapable of making it work.
