Is it reverse racism to think Asians are probably smarter than yourself?

The people he cares the most about had nothing good to say, it was DOA and will do nothing to change the dynamic, it's still his shutdown and he will still get the blame. Back to the drawing board.

1. Stop using the term “reverse racism” it’s simply racism or racist or racial or racialism.

2. Given the useage of the term “reverse racism”; they probably are.

Here is what I don't get, the Democrats could use the border wall funding as a bargaining chip to get some sort of law passed regarding DREAMers and possibly provide a pathway to citizenship for them.

Masterful move.

it's not like Trump has been successful so far at gutting out DACA

DACA is done it's merely a matter of time, California and New York could only hold it up for so long. The law clearly, in plain English, grants the Executive power to decide immigration policy and DACA was a policy signed in by the previous Executive. Any President can alter another Presidents policy with the signing of a paper known as an executive order, this is long settled law.

The Democrats challenged the EO in court over the reasons, which that doesn't matter legally speaking. The Democrat judges nodding their heads and said "well it's Trump so it's gotta be bad". President Trumps administration attempted to go straight to the Supreme Court and bypass the 9th circuit court of appeals, which become an extension of the DNC. The Supreme Court said *nope*, you need to let the system work and not go straight to us.

So this is whats going to happen, it's going to the 9th circuit of appeals, who will almost certainly uphold the ruling of the lower 9th circuit court. Federal government will appeal to the Supreme Court, where it won't be heard until next fall at the earliest, likely not until next December time frame. The Supreme Court is now a majority of Originalists and the law is extremely clear in this case, they will reverse the lower courts ruling and rule that the EO that rescinded President Obama's DACA policy is legal.

Now if before that time Democrats can get into law something that makes that policy law, then the entire thing will be moot and dropped.

If this confuses people, it's because the USA is a country of laws with a very strong legal system. Those from socialist and communist countries might be thinking legal systems exist to empower the government to make social change, they are wrong. Legal systems exist to protect people from governments attempting social change.

President Trump says to reporters that San Antonio, a town 157 miles from U.S. border, has a wall
Fox 13 Salt Lake

Quote:
While addressing reporters ahead of a special announcement Saturday on the partial government shutdown and border wall funding, President Trump cited San Antonio as a city that had its crime problem solved after getting a wall.

“You look at different places, they put up a wall, no problem,” Trump said. “You look at San Antonio, you look at so many different places, they go from one of the most unsafe cities in the country to one of the safest cities immediately.”

San Antonio does not have a border wall. It is located 157 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border....

The government works are going to get paid eventually. So I find it hard to feel bad for government workers.

I don't speak for all white people however...just because you are white doesn't mean minorities can't be racist towards white people.

Being a minority doesn't give you immunity to criticism.

so... “reverse racism” is racism committed by a minority against a majority? and people say this doesn’t exist? if that is the case, by that logic i can say whatever i want about the Chinese without it being “racist” because they are the majority Earth population.

There is no reverse racism. There is only racism.

Its like this. I'm Ashkenazi Jewish. We have a mean IQ of 124. That is both a true and a racist statement. (Although we aren't considered a race in America.) Doesn't mater that we are less than 1% of the world's population.

Race is so important me so I took a DNA test turns out I'm an ***.
