I love Trump but I respect America’s Free Constitutional Republic more. I don’t cheer anything the feds do outside of their constitutional limits, Trump or no Trump.

Trump is a businessman “doer” and used to getting things done quickly and under budget.

But government isn’t business. Our Free Constitutional Republic in domestic matters was designed to run SLOWLY. SLOW government is GOOD government. The Nazis were quick. Fascism is quick. Totalitarianism is quick. The separation of powers, checks and balances, and the delegation by the Constitution of certain enumerated powers to the feds were all designed to LIMIT and SLOW government especially in domestic matter.

Unless Trump can show exactly what exactly he intends to do and the specific Constitutional power authorizing him to do it, he needs to stay the hell away, even as bad a CA is. Constitutionally, CA is basically up to the people of CA, NOT the feds.

Good.

Now issue the SAME warning to the governor of Virginia if he persists in threatening the lives of Virginia Citizens whoa re exercising their Constitutional, Civil, and Basic Human RIGHT to keep and bear arms.

This is where the rubber meets the road. All roads lead to Virginia in 2020, Mr. President.

Hopefully, President Trump will cut finding to California until they put their own house in order.

Northern Virginia just needs to be made part of DC like it already truly is.

What you don’t get is Trump knows what he’s doing.

Meanwhile, you’re clueless in the extreme.

Is this Trump meddling in the 2024 election?

But you miss the point.

Governor Newsome loves it when people are homeless.

President Trump wants to fix the problem.

I understand your points. You’re mostly correct on them all.
I am guessing that Mr. Trump is using his Bully Pulpit to shine the national spotlight on California’s homeless problems. Problems are ARE fixable.

His intention, I’m thinking is to use public pressure to embarrass the Governor into taking action. Trump has to know his remarks are going to make Gavin hopping mad. “Good! Be mad, call me nasty names if it makes you feel better. Then get your ass in gear!
If you want to shut me up, then resolve that issue before it spreads even further. I plan to campaign on it, by the way. And tell your sassy San Francisco Mayor London Breed to do the same in her town!”

California’s homeless programs are in violation of several existing Federal laws, including interstate/international pollution, human trafficking, and I believe several laws concerning communicable diseases. All longstanding laws long decided to be constitutional by the Supreme Court.

I agree with the poster who pointed out that the patriots of Virginia are more deserving of Trump’s support than the homeless drug addicts of California.

Texas has a governor who fixed the problem, CA just has a Rufus for Governor

The way to deal with the homeless situation is for the federal government to file suit against states and cities for not enforcing environmental laws against the homeless.

Penalty is now something like $46,000 per violation per day.

Trump knows business but is weak on the Constitution (he’s in learning mode).

Meanwhile you have no clue what you’re talking about.

And BTW, reason IS NOT faith. Reason SUPPORTS faith.

Careful, you’re falling into the trap set by the globalists and the anarchists.

It’s not about splitting people into factions, or dividing us according to group interests.

It’s about making our country great again. America was greater in the past, before the communists spread their ideological filth through deceptive and subversive means.

Before communist ways made American homelessness common.

Homelessness is bad for all Americans.

Many existing Federal laws regardless of SCOTUS, are unconstitutional.

If trump can show he is validly acting in accordance within Constitutional limitations as written and originally understood and intended, then he should go for it. Otherwise, he should stay away. Use the bully pulpit. Shine a light on all this unbelievably stupid CA/Newsome nonsense. But his acts should stay withing constitutional limitations.
