Apparently HitlerPig made that announcement without clearing it with Stephen "PeeWee Himmler" Miller first.
This illustrates one of the many oddities about Trump.
With any other president, we had policy debates and stated goals and decisions made and implemented.
With Trump, we just have this string of essentially arbitrary threats, promises and rhetoric, and alongside that is a string of essentially arbitrary policies arbitrarily enacted and rescinded and followed and ignored, and there's no necessary correlations between any of it.
It's another of the things that I think Trump does simply because he's a delusional toxic narcissist, a genuinely stupid person, and emotionally a toddler, and another of the things that the would-be autocrats - the billionaires and the CEOs and the religious right and the Republicans and the rest of the greedy and power-hungry scum - take advantage of him doing.
Thank you for the archive.today link, OP.
I skimmed through the article but could not find a clear reason for this new flip-flop. I'm wondering if they are simply unable to reach their horrible quota without getting to their workplaces.
All of this is very sad, it's just heartbreaking.
My impression is that this comes down to internal politics within the crime family, with there being some disagreement over the relative importance of hate and prosperity.
Hate is going to win, obviously.
The nazis like Miller and Johnson are winning over the business wing. Seems about right when comparing to Nazi Germany, too.
You’re Right methusalix
Don't make me menacingly brandish my cane, you pesky whippersnapper!
Yeah yeah Oldtimer 😁
That’s a positive spin.
Pessimistic me expected this all along; the goal is to make immigrants feel unsafe no matter where they are, even if ICE only targets some areas when they feel like it.
It’s the same way Trump approaches everything else.
The hallmarks of incompetent governance.
Just another TACO Tuesday.
TACO. He turns so fast, we should use his rotations to produce electricity. Then he would at least do something useful for a change.
we knew this would happen – they’re going to make cities a war zone and show they didn’t really have any principles regarding immigration to begin with.
attacking cities was the goal.
For Stephen Miller, a white ethnostate is the goal.
Stephen "PeeWee Himmler" Miller
Oh good, Stephen Miller is back in control (edit: I dropped this /s)
Probably had enough time to "clean up" his own businesses records
why bother?
Trump just says whatever he thinks his target audience wants to hear, and it has no bearing on what he does.
I see Stephen Miller gained control of his floppy mech suit again. It must have been so frustrating for him to see oligarchs eclipse on his dream of an American Holocaust that he used his emergency favor he earned by selling his soul. One more deal with the devil and his horns are gonna stick out like in Fabled: The lost chapters. His appearance is definitely on the cusp.
