Post #41812 by albaby1 on the Berkshire Hathaway board

If someone appears to be repeatedly personal, lean towards patience as they might not mean offense. If you are sure, however, then do not deepen the problem by being negative; instead, simply place them on ignore by clicking the unhappy yellow face to the right of their name.

The thing is...that bill solved the democrats' political problem. Nothing more.

But the converse of that is that defeating the bill enhanced the GOP's political situation - nothing more.

The bill wouldn't have actually codified any number of border encounters as being permissible - the 5K was only a trigger for an additional enforcement power. Again, letting state troopers shoot speeders in the leg if they go over 100 MPH isn't codifying permission for people to speed under 100 MPH. It's an additional enforcement power, not a permission.

You didn't dodge a bullet - if the bill were law today, it wouldn't have made it any less possible for Trump to do what he's doing, and he would have had more ICE agents and more detention space and more administrative law judges at his disposal.
