As a republican I think boarders should be stronger but we should have an easier process for those to get citizenship. Refugees should come first then those who aren’t.

You’re closer to the democratic platform than you think. Current Republican platform has transformed into an authoritarian nativist argument against all non European Americans. There was a dem bill last year to overhaul the immigration court systems for refugees, give paths to naturalization for people already established here, and strengthen border security while continuing to deport only violent criminals. Completely different from what the main right wing positions are right now.

The nativism arguments being pushed by figures like JD Vance that he is inherently more “American” than me (a second gen and child of immigrants) because his family has been here since the 1800s but that argument goes against the founding values of this country which non maga republicans agree with.

Most of my opinions though lean slightly more right while keeping some of the same ideas of the left. This one is more left than right.

Except the democrats would never pass that. Also Trump has some of the most h1b visas Indians aren’t European??

It was the “bipartisan border bill” and it was republicans who struck it down not the Dems. H1B visas have changed since the 90s now they’re basically just temporary work permits and it’s almost impossible to get citizenship anymore from those because it’s dependent on your employment. Most current H1B workers will have to leave as soon as they are fired from their jobs if they can’t get sponsorship from somewhere else. It’s cheaper to hire a new H1B worker than give an existing H1B a raise

Having a pedo and defenders of the pedos and traffickers as the face of the Republican Party is not a good look

Just pointing out how you associate with the pedo party willingly

It’s weird you’re not bothered by pedophilia.

It’s weird how obsessed you are with pedophilia

It’s weird to you that I want the names of pedophiles, being hidden and protected by the president, released? That says a lot more about you than me. Why do you prefer the names of adults who attacked children to stay hidden?

That’s the sad part. The fact that saying a political belief automatically means you are something. No most of my views align with that side hence why I align with it.

So if and when you voted Trump, you just didn’t mind that he had a long history of defending sexual abuse or associating with the party that keeps it legal for adults to marry kids?

I didn’t vote trump. Just because I’m republican doesn’t mean I have to vote for the republican president.

OP 7w

No, it just means that you’re choosing to associate with the party, that has endorsed the idea of allowing children to be harmed sexually or physically.

It means most of my beliefs associate with that party. Doesn’t mean I agree with EVERYTHING. Like I do think the Epstein list should have been released bc those are predictors.

And I’m saying the party is inherently harmful to vulnerable groups, LIKE children.

No the people in the party not everybody though. Why would I say I’m democrat when pretty much none of my beliefs go towards it just because I’m not a pedo

I want the list released I’m just also not going to make assumptions about what’s on the list

So I’m weird for wanting it released, but you’re not for wanting the same thing?

Why do you have to associate with either of the two? Leftists are not labeled as democrats Conservatives are not labeled as republicans automatically either

Usually if you say democrat people think liberal and same with conservative to republican. When speaking with most people I just say I’m independent to stop fighting but I still lean more right.
