> Isis

Isis was already losing in 2017 after they lost Raqqa and Mosul. Trump played no part in it.

> Tax cuts

America is already stacked with an insane deficit and debts. Tax cuts don't see like a good thing in that situation.

> Booming economy

Yes, the economy he inherited from Obama and perpetuated by spending ever more public money and increasing the deficit.

> Remain in Mexico

This only concerns 35k people which is a laughable amount.

> Far lower illegal immigrantion

Not if you compare to the end of Bidens term.

We're also still waiting for that wall to happen. Another lie of course.

Republicans also voted against a bi-partisan bill to reduce immigration.

> If you listen to soundbites it sound like a circus

Fucking a pornstar while you're wife is at home with your newly born kid that might also play a role. But somehow the party of the nuclear family doesn't see a problem with that.



I think you’re right on a lot of details here, but here’s a chart of illegal encounters over the past few years. It has boomed under the current admin.

The bipartisan bill would have allowed in two million people a year. It threw a few scraps to border control. Great bill to look like they’re doing something while intentionally allowing the situation to continue.

The bill would have put a cap on immigration where there is no cap currently.

That would have been a net positive.

Don't let perfect be the enemy.
