To get a real id, you need to either provide a birth certificate or passport, or if you are not a citizen proof of legal immigration status.

Strong disagreement. To detain someone - which is what is happening if you stop someone and ask for their ID, you need to have probable cause that a crime is being committed. I struggle to see how having a foreign accent is an indication that someone is a criminal. As I said, there are...

To further clarify my point - there are about 46 million immigrants in this country legally, and about 10 million not. Which means, if you're are just stopping people b/c they "seem" foreign - you are 4-5 times more likely to be stopping/detaining a legal resident than an illegal one.This is...

I don't know man. That doesn't really sound reasonable to me. I know lots of legal immigrants with accents and speak their native languages amongst their family and friends. It seems unnecessarily burdensome to force them to prove that they're here legally whenever someone wants to based on...

Trump is 78 years old and looks more and more fatigued -- he's not running again in 4 years, even if he could get away with it.

How did you come to the conclusion that Trump has leadership qualities and Harris does not? Could you walk me through it?For example, I remember watching Harris' speech on the ellipse and thinking Trump could not give a speech like this.I'm generally too cynical to feel inspired by any...

The issue is what is the mechanism for the government to stop and ask people for their ID? Basically what is the probable cause the government will need to have to essentially detain a person, and ask them to provide ID?This is what I was referring to when I fear an erosion of our 4th...

I've been that way in past elections (I voted for Homer J Simpson in 2004 and 2012 for president, and in most Congressional elections until 2016 where I've been all in on anti-Republicanism).However, I can only do that when I think the two candidates are in the same general range of "Meh, I...

I completely agree. They need to do a better job claiming this issue. They have objective facts on their side from a reductive standpoint... and I think they can make a compelling argument on economic theory.I'm not even a super fan of Democratic economic policy - I just think it's better than...

Yes, and debate about the actual policy positions and not whatever misrepresentation social media/infotainment personality decides to feed people.

Right, and I disagree with several of her proposals. HOWEVER, you're going to get one of the two, so I think making a comparison and going for the one that I think will do better is a logical choice. Just walking away and say they both suck is a bet that you won't be affected and that the...

This is one of the things that I found so frustrating about criticisms of Harris -- "we just don't know enough about her policies". It was maddening, and disingenuous. She had policy proposals. Trump had "concepts of a plan".

All her policies were on her campaign's website, and several newspapers did outlines of both Trump and Harris' proposals. I find it odd that people talk about not knowing some of this stuff... I did a quick google search and I get several articles about both of them.I also find it odd that we...

I find this interesting b/c I thought her economic policies were vastly superior as well. Do you disagree with that, or was it that you did not hear about the differences? I knew about the differences, so I'm curious to see what kind of messaging gets through and which ones don't.

Also, this was another close election and Trump finished with less than 50% of the vote... and at the moment he's acting like he has a sweeping mandate. There's a good chance he's going to overstep (which a number of his cabinet nominations suggest that he's going to overstep)... which means...

I'm not so sure... there are a class of legal immigrants that are not US citizens that can be deported without a Constitutional amendment, or at least it appears to be open to interpretation on whether they can be deported. The point being, very prominent people in Trump's inner circle, are in...

I think people are way overthinking this. Trump is just weird - the grip he has on his supporters. I'm not sure it's repeatable.Also, inflation was real - and the Democrats did not do a good job messaging on that. And Immigration was a hot button issue that they were on the wrong side of for...

Yes, some people are talking about deporting legal immigrants - that's part of the whole de-naturalization discussion going on in the proposed Trump administration.

I can't agree with this enough. It's disgusting that this is made to be a national political issue - the entire purpose is to demonize an at risk minority.I don't think saying transgender athletes can't compete as their preferred gender is some terrible position. It raises really difficult...

This is one of my big concerns. My concern is they are going to adopt a model of - prove you are a citizen, instead of the USG proving that you aren't first.
