Rubio just suspended his campaign. Live on Fox.
Yes. We are in agreement, even if you’d rather we were not.
1) The 2 million in 1986 both procreated and brought their relatives here legally due to subsequent legislation that grew out of the 1986 law, and
2) The “Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986” (which title I should certainly have used instead of the abbreviation) was further flawed in that it did not adequately address the underlying problem by controlling the border.
It was unwise for Reagan to agree to it, but he did.
“It was unwise for Reagan to agree to it, but he did.”
And he later regretted it, as he said publicly.
The border control is paramount for any and all immigration proposals.
Reagan failed to have verifiable enforcement upfront.
Rubio was too stupid and naïve to think that Americans did not learn from that mistake when he decided to completely annihilate his career in 2013 to do the same.
He now regrets it, but it is too late for the idiot.
He had a fabulous resume that would have virtually guaranteed him the highest office in the land, but he threw it away supporting Chu8ckie.
So Reagan regretted the amnesty bill he signed, and he’s a conservative icon. Rubio regrets a bill he co-sponsored that never passed, and he’s an idiot.
Whatever.
Just curious, since we’ve been discussing this all day: are you as old as I am, are you unemployed with time on your hands, or are you just playing on FR on the company’s dime?
Yes, Rubio is an idiot for not learning the lessons of Reagan’s mistakes. A fool does that.
And he tried like hell to have it passed, unlike your insinuation he had no chance to get it made into law.
As far as playing on FR, it is really no concern of yours how I do it, but no, I am retired and see ways to educate those who need some help. I also am volunteering for Junior Achievement to help those young ones there learn how to make sense of money and finance.
