    Haha yeah I know

    I wonder what Trump’s criteria is for which illegals are going to be sent to Guantanamo Bay, and how long they’re supposed to be there

      He mentioned the following.

      “some of them are so bad, we don’t even trust the countries to hold them, because we don’t want them coming back.”

      I think it is more to send a signal than a well thought out policy but indeed good question.

          I can’t vote for Trump (I’m Dutch). Would have probably voted for him though. Another 4 years of Biden would have made Europe a Marxists paradise. Trump still might not change it but at least there is some push back now.

          I don’t understand the ‘I will always support my president’ - maybe that’s a US thing. If you think the guy is a nutcase, why support him. The US is more than a president. Companies, states and people can thrive under bad management.

          Not sure what to think of the Guantanamo Bay policy. If it is only used for low life criminals I am not too bothered with it. If it causes randomly sending illegals there and treating them inhumanly I wouldn’t support that.

              Yeah, a good buddy of mine is a hardcore socialist and I am a libertarian. We sometimes talk politics and still have fun. Why not. Discuss and let the best argument win.

                  Most important is a decent attitude and have the respect to listen to someones opinions. I don’t believe socialists are evil but I do believe a lot of their policies are. Even if the intention is good. I am a libertarian but not an anarchist so that means I do believe there is a role for governments. I think that’s an interesting start for a friendly conversation with anyone 🍻
