Also in NYTimes: "Smugglers lately have been buying radio ads in Central America, warning that Mr. Trump is about to shut down all immigration. If you ever want to go to the United States, they say, go now! " They aren't "asylum seekers", we've between 11M (Pew) and 22M (Yale/MIT) here illegally, and a mere 800K pending asylum cases. Why? Because the fact of the matter is most of them do not qualify for asylum and so they never file for legal asylum. Whole Truth Matters, Jim. It's been such a disappointment to watch the Left, try using the hateful dangerous rhetoric that used to be solely the toxic Far Right. "xenophobes", "racists" and "deplorable". Even the formerly admirable Ralph Nader, recently Why isn't the Left coming up with a ridicule name for Trump? "Let's all sink to the lowest common denomination" just escalates this train wreck.

@notsure6187 A Microsoft transplant, from Seattle to Boston, spent a good hour, expressing his trauma from culture shock. Another from So. Cal., after a year here, said he got it, they've no interest in going out with you for a beer after work, but they're there for you if your car won't start. ;)

@notsure6187 A NY'er coworker complainted, Boston is "cold". Er? He said at least in NYC if you drop your keys, someone will yell after you, "Hey! Dumbass! Dropped your keys.", while no one will in Boston, they're too busy 'minding their own business'.

@Shng275 ?!? Progressives are trying to change this country for the better?!? Hmmm, at best, they intend to throw a few bandaids atop what's broken, to continue the status quo. And about the closest thing we have to a Democrat is Bernie Sanders. Those who're elected as Democrats are neoliberals, not democrats.
