you have to admire republican's brazeness to push change; unlike the democrats, it's effective at forcing change even if it's causes lots of chaos.
- I mean. People hate it, because its worth hating, but Trump did try and deliver on his campaign promises in 2016. They were horrible, despicable things he promised. But he at least went through the motions of doing the things he said he would do.
  Democrats refuse to deliver. The lived conditions of their typical voter are just not a priority for them, and they aren't willing to upset the status quo to deliver.
  
  Obama took on healthcare and look at all the shit that stirred. There is a limit to what democrats can accomplish with the country being essentially gerrymandered republican.
You know, the "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" argument being implicitly extended to cover second-generation immigrants should if taken seriously, imply that these people aren't actually obligated to follow US law, which presumably includes immigration law. You know, if you go by a text-first originalist interpretation of the constitution and the law.
