Although green-card applicants with expired visas can be detained under federal law, previous administrations did not consider them to be in the country unlawfully.

I have been sounding this alarm for years now. A huge portion of Green card holders and naturalized citizens have technically overstayed a visa while awaiting change of status processing. I don't know what the exact number is, but I'd wager it's potentially a significant majority, considering how long the process takes. Previously it has been a long standing policy that you will get amnesty as long as the paperwork is filed in time, but there is not law that requires it.

If they want, they could use this exact same "loophole" to start mass de-naturalization as well.

im betting most of those are republicans, or married to a republican, because Conservatives have to often look to international wives to marry, because americans are up to thier BS, a foreign wife is more ignorant of the current politics in the US and the manchildness of the conservative.

Yeah, being fat and having "the worst kind of beard" has a lot to do with his stance in the progressive to reactionary scale.

BTW, what scale are you using for best/worst kind of beard?

Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works · -4 pts · 1d

Lol the only "insult" is the word mediocre. The rest are just accurate statements. If you see a black person it's statistically likely they voted for Kamala, if they voted at all. If you see a middle aged white dude, it's likely they voted for Trump if they voted at all.

Insults do not need cuss words. I, for one, vastly prefer elegant insults.

Your statement is worded in an insulting manner. inserting that "mediocre" in there turns the phrase into an insult, whilst the second sentence tries to reaffirm your thesis that all balding, middle aged white guys are MAGA supporters.

Cheap, and really MAGA-ish.

5318008@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 1d

the second sentence tries to reaffirm your thesis that all balding, middle aged white guys are MAGA supporters.

Well, no. Technically it's a statement that balding mediocre, middle aged white guys are the ones you would most expect to be MAGA supporters.

Does it make sense how the words they used correspond to the meaning of the statement? And does it make sense how when you add extra words to the statement, it means something different from what they said?

phx@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 1d

As a balding middle aged (mediocracy dependingb on the given activity) white guy, I get where they're coming from.

It's that the non-rich MAGA-ites have a tendency to fall inton those categories - not necessarily the other way around - as they chase the fictitious golden age where they could have instead been great.
