So, According to Twitter, Pres. Biden Said Thursday …

[bailey777]

that the Democrats were going to try and “reinstate” the ban on assault weapons. Today, Senator Murphy - D. Connecticut, says “we“ are not going to put out a piece of legislation that “bans assault weapons.”

These people are a clown show. Little girls run a lemonade stand better than these virtue-signaling, self-aggrandizing fools. They are Wholly, completely, comprehensively incompetent.

The best they will get is some expanded background checks. The repubs arent always very bright but they know once you start banning any guns the dems will never stop. We dont need to become Austrailia. The fare left will be furiousl but soon they can move onto abortion and they will forget about guns. They always go onto the flavor of the month notice how they do not talk about Ukraine anymore.

Or maybe don't get your news and analysis from Twitter. I watched the speech. Your OP is incorrect and your criticism meaningless.

even if it’s true, what does it matter that the president says one thing and another dem says something contradictory? We spent four years listening to a loose cannon mouth president say things that the rest of conservatives disagreed with, which is fine. Not everyone in party xx should be expected to walk and talk in lockstep. I actually appreciate dissent.
So who cares. This complaint is a nothingfalafel, and parr for the course from the OP.

Did you like it when Trump was shooting off his mouth and the GOP in the House and Senate weren't on the same page?

Me neither.

It is NOT OK when a President refuses to work with Congress, and thinks he just gets to do what he wants.

THAT AIN'T HOW IT WORKS.

All it does it create chaos and confusion.

Frankly, the whole country was better off when the parties picked candidates behind closed doors in smoke-filled rooms.

This is a fact. I'll take Mayor Daley as kingmaker over the chaos we now have.
And I detested Daley.

I agree but I'm more bothered by how it is now standard to simply make up things to complain about.

CoH, you seem to believe our immigration laws as written are just fine given someone in the Oval office such as Trump.

In contrast i agree with this Cato Institute article declaring our immigration system to be broken and requiring an update of the laws as only Congress can provide. The article lists some of the problems as follows,,,,

1. A far too restrictive system overall.
2. Static immigration quotas.
3. Quotas on nationalities—the law micromanages immigrant demographics.
4. Immigrants wait in line for decades.
5. Immigrant workers are counted against multiple quotas.
6. There’s a limit for immigrants with “extraordinary ability”.
7. Workers without college degrees only get 5,000 green cards.
8. The president can end the refugee program unilaterally.
9. No immigration category for entrepreneurs.
10. No way to create new immigration categories without congressional action.
11. Immigrants generally cannot apply for permanent residency on their own.
12. Spouses and minor children of new immigrants count against the quotas.
13. There’s a quota on new spouses and minor children of current permanent residents.
14. Children of temporary workers grow up here, wait in line with their parents for permanent residency, and get kicked out of line on their 21st birthday.
15. Immigrants can live here for decades without receiving permanent residency.
16. Illegal immigrants cannot leave and reapply to return legally.
17. Spouses and children of temporary workers are banned from working.
18. The law requires immigrants to pretend that they don’t want to immigrate.
19. Forcing employers to advertise positions that are already filled.
20. Temporary workers cannot easily change jobs.
21. No temporary visas at all for year‐round workers without college degrees.
22. Noncitizens can access federal welfare programs after five years.
23. The president can ban any immigrants that he doesn’t like.
24. No opportunity to appeal visa denials.
25. The burden of proof is on immigrants and their sponsors, not the government.
26. America has closed borders with a few holes.

Granted the Caito Institute is strongly libertarian to the point of being more pro immigrant rights than our Congress is likely to approve, Nevertheless the institute does bring up many areas where our current immigration laws don't fix existing problems.

Then change the laws. Ignoring them is not right and is causing a disaster.
