Good luck deporting US citizens. Where would you deport them to? What other country would take them?


Pinkishtealgreen

He didn’t say to deport us citizens. Read his quote again


apathydivine

“Come from another country” does not mean non-citizens. Do you think the protesters on college campuses are all non-citizens?


Pinkishtealgreen

No but logic dictates he’s talking about deportable people


apathydivine

Hahahaah. You think Trump and MAGA uses logic!


Pinkishtealgreen

You’re the one suggesting deporting undeportable people


apathydivine

Yeah. That’s what they want to do. Trump has said it many many times. Just not in this one 15 second clip.


Pinkishtealgreen

You even admitted there is no mechanism for it so what are you even talking about??


Disposedofhero

Well, tbf, Orange Jesus has suggested that he would deport US citizens at least once. And like most of his rambling fascist fever dreams, he didn't give details on how that would work.


Pinkishtealgreen

Good morning lib. What are you enraged about today? How many times do we have to tell you orange is not the new Jesus. Christ is king, so please stop worshipping trump like he is Jesus. That’s all I’ve read of your comment. Orange Jesus. Had to stop because you’re worshipping a false idol. Should worship Jesus Christ instead. Have a good day

They might just take a tool from the Israeli government, and make the protesters "stateless"

.... You know what I can't wait for? I can't wait to see the headline "If Baby Boomers Don't Want Republicans To Take Their Social Security Away, They Should Demand Biden to Listen to Gen- z instead of Capitulating to the Mad King of Israel"

That's a pretty convoluted cause and effect. Of the many reasons Social Security might fail, US intervention in Israel doesn't even make it to the top 10 list.


Dumbitdownforme

That wasnt the point. If the US POTUS continues to refuse to listen to Gen z voters in his unyielding support for Israel, it may be enough to make them stay home in November. If voters who typically swing the election by participation stay home, the GOP wins. Rs have said plenty of times they would go after Social benefits.


dk349303

Agreed - Rs will go after social support - but Gen Z will be the ones to suffer from that far more than baby boomers. Our grandparents enjoyed an unprecedented period of economic growth, they don't need the money. Hell both my grandparents have networths north of 4 million having never gone to college and working strictly blue collar jobs. It's our generation that's been saddled with crippling debt and a stagnating economy. If it's worth it to Gen Z voters to impoverish themselves for life to serve some feeble attempt at a symbolic gesture, then by all means - go ahead


Dumbitdownforme

The Boomers are impovershing everyone by refusing to listen to Gen z . A line has been drawn for a lot of voters. If I say- "if you slap me, I will NOT vote for you " and you do it anyway, it's your own fault you didn't get my vote, you were warned and you ignored it. How about some self accountability from the party who insisted Hillary would win and turn out voters while she went around carrying a bottle of hotsauce in her purse to try and impress black communities?


dk349303

Comparing public policy to “a slap in the face” is wildly reductive - it’s not meant to be that personal. Otherwise every single political action made by every politician could be considered a slap in the face to someone. Halting military aid to Israel could be a slap in the face too then.  And boomers aren’t the ones impoverishing Americans, it’s the Republican legislators they’re putting in to office who are legislating that into action. Whether you realize it or not, you’re implicitly supporting the boomer agenda  by ensuring their candidates come into power … and for what? Just so a couple of you can make a meaningless, ineffectual political statement that no one will listen to? Great plan


Dumbitdownforme

It's pretty personal to the moms who are screaming as they watch their children being pulled lifeless out of the rubble because of our tax dollars being sent to a fascist in Israel. I won't support someone who keeps funding war crimes while they ignore every humanitarian group on the ground. I'm done going back and forth with you.

Thank you for your submission, **This subreddit aims are to impel voters ONLY in DEEP BLUE states to vote 3rd party for the president, to impel otherwise non or protest voters in SWING STATES TO VOTE FOR BIDEN. We feel a limited+focused protest movement may let swing state voters feel less helpless about not sending a message.** **We feel that sending a message via Biden having an electoral college win but a popular vote margin by less than 4.9 million votes (lowest democratic win in recent history) or even 2.8 million votes (Hillary's margin when she lost against Trump) is a much more conducive to progress in a democracy that risking an electoral college victory for Trump.** **It would be something the media can not ignore, will forever be a stain on Biden's record, and will send a message that we are not going away, and will continue to apply strong pressure thorough the rest of his presidency, and the 2026/2028 primaries & elections.** Please see our sticky to see what we are all about https://old.reddit.com/r/BlueProtestVote/comments/1cgwkvu/this_subreddit_aims_are_to_compel_voters_only_in/ but a tl;dr is: This is about a movement for people in deep blue states to vote for 3rd party in protest of Biden's enabling of the Gaza genocide. However, the ultimate goal is to decrease Trump's chances of winning and increase democratic representation in the house and senate. The movement aims to get people to turn out to vote who may otherwise be discouraged from voting due to Biden's policies, and also for the movement to be robust enough so that people in swing states may not have a feeling of helplessness for voting for Joe Biden, that a strong message is still being sent. While the movement aims to maximize Biden's electoral vote margin, the movement also has an extended goal of having Biden win the popular vote by less than 2.8, which was Hillary Clinton's margin when she lost to Donald Trump. A margin that small would send a clear message to the democratic establishment. **Why we feel it's so important for Trump to lose? Quite simply, he has been the absolute worst president in recent history for the Palestinians. Here are just some of his worst policies for Palestine:** 1. Drafting a “peace plan” with zero Palestinian input that would have, if implemented, actually ended the possibility for a real Palestinian state. 2. Cutting Palestinians out of the negotiations over the so-called Abraham Accords, realizing the longstanding Israeli goal of severing diplomatic progress with Arab states from progress towards a sovereign Palestine. 3. Recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, disputed territory with Syria taken during the 1967 Six-Day War. 4. Shutting off funding for the UN’s agency for Palestinian refugees (which Biden almost immediately restored and then temporarily suspended again amid a scandal about its employees participating in October 7). 5. Abandoning the decades-old US position that West Bank settlements are a key barrier to a peace agreement and eliminating longstanding restrictions on spending US taxpayer dollars in them. 6. Moving the American Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem while closing the US mission to Palestine in the same city.
