There’s also the “misery loves company” aspect that I think drives a lot of city dwellers. Furthermore it’s not just the non-immigrants who can vote in cities. The immigrants will tend to vote for the more liberal policies. So of course hig

As much as I hated AMP this is one thing I loved about it. Click an article, get paywalled… Google the article headline and it’d take you to a paywall-free AMP version of the full article.

I suppose do the things it swore it would do: eg, reduce deaths, not have far more than the last administration during the same time period. Be “better prepared” and “smarter” about things. And so on.

There was still 1-1.5K deaths per day, something the previous administration was attacked for every single day.

Lack of enforcement, halting border wall building, and publicly stating that America should have a kind heart and basically welcoming illegal immigration with open arms isn’t a policy change?
