There are more than 6200 miles of the U.S. border. If a terrorist crosses at any point and kills an American citizen, who is to blame?
If you’re a garden-variety idiot, you blame the U.S. president. Can’t the occupant of the White House be held accountable for every crime committed here by someone from any country who comes here illegally?
If you’re a lying idiot, you blame Biden, even if the terrorist entered during Trump’s presidency.
As a financially comfortable, educated, straight white male, one might think I’m impervious to any of Trump’s policies.
I have a weakness, however, and it’s one I share with virtually every other progressive on the planet–I care deeply the well-being of other people. It disturbs me greatly to see other people suffer, especially when that suffering would be so easily avoided.
At left is a great example of a fallacy called a “false dichotomy.”
We all crave information that backs up what we already believe, and, in general, Trump supporters have this going on in spades.
When we think about it, isn’t in possible to both protect American citizens and respect the Constitution rights all people living here?
What would one expect a sycophant to say?
