    the amount of hate crimes we see in the US will drastically rise, especially among people who don’t “look” or “sound” American, especially indigenous people. ignorance is now intelligence.

    Hmm not to discredit this, but how does that work, being detained and having to produce a birth certificate … does one normally daily carry a birth certificate next to ones ID?

    And if you’re detained without a a birth certificate while on vacation across the country?

    Only ID on you? Go to prison?

    No ID nor birth certificate and you’ll either get shot or deported?

    What if you speak something else than Spanish or English amongst yourselves?

    How long 'till the Trump administration mandates a form of ID on ones hand, arm, or forehead?

        It would be awesome though if we were able to deport all the religious nut jobs. Though not for the places these crazies would be deported to.

          Put them on an Ark - wooden, overloaded, cast adrift in the type of weather that would cause massive flooding, if you catch my drift. Of course, gathering two of each animal would be cruel, so we’ll skip those.

        Well I think they really only did two things : A) appeal to far right people with their roots waaaay out in the boondocks mostly northward rather than southwestward using stuff like dog whistles, and B) use doublespeak to simultaneously appeal to, draw in, and superficially radicalize the more centre right types just enough to get their vote over the top, to have a substantial base, and to be able to call it ‘a mandate’. I mean they really went out into the deep country for campaigning.

          You forgot the most important step: lie your ass off constantly faster than the truth can catch up to you

          The “mandate”, for instance, is horseshit. There is no mandate. Trump won by one of the smallest margins in American history and immediate turned around to cry, “The people love me! They voted for me overwhelmingly! Best most fairest election of all time!”

            yeah… that whole concept of mandate or not presumes our representitves respect the voters or try to do what we want, and its been proven with studies that what we want doesnt matter at all to them. Theres near zero correlation with what we want and what they do. So we can just stop talking about mandates entirely, its a myth.
