    His comment was 100% accurate. Not even sure where there is a dispute. It is a fact that drigs that cross the border kill thousands of americans.

    The comment was crossing the border. What about that is non factual?

    Mr. Miller's claim is that "thousands of Americans die year after year after year because of threats crossing our southern border." My point is his claim lacks factual basis.
    "I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."

    "I am your retribution."

I think with the passage of years many of those people will reflect on what they were doing in wearing those hats and experience some regret.
    You're only a victim if you allow yourself to be.

    How if we know the drugs are coming in from south of the border?

    what i've seen from you on the facts is "nobody knows"

    i agree no one knows with a high degree of precision...i also think the DEA is probably as well informed as anyone on these issues

    Mr. Miller has no factual basis for his claim
    "I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."

    "I am your retribution."

    We dont know drigs are coming from south of the border? Is that the position you are taking to paint Millers factual claim as a racist one?

    Of course we know that.

    The quote from Miller goes well beyond that. His isn't claiming drugs come from south of the border. His claim is

    "thousands of Americans die year after year after year because of threats crossing our southern border."
    "I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."

    "I am your retribution."

    The threat is drugs in addition to criminal aliens.

    You admit drigs come from south of the border. You admit drigs are threats.

    Transitive property then follows that you think millers claim is factual.

    I love that wearing a MAGA hat is an endorsement of a random sentence from a guy probably 90% of the country doesn't know

    I cited Miller's comments and the theory that the central American caravans were funded by Soros and seeded by ISIS sleeper cells as examples of the kind of thinking that I think is strongly associated with wearing a MAGA hat. Indeed I would argue that to wear a MAGA hat for most people wearing them is a full-throated endorsement of that kind of thinking. Characteristics of that kind of thinking are:

    1) demonizing and dehumanizing entire groups

    2) lack of factual basis

    3) paranoia

    4) a tendency for conspiratorial thinking
    "I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."

    "I am your retribution."

    Nsacpis unhealthy obsession with painting people he disagrees with leads to all these bull**** hoaxes.

    Saw an interesting graphic while watching MSNBC yesterday. When you stratify the democratic party based on liberal vs conservative and break those buckets ouy by demographics it yields that an overwhelming amount of the liberal democrats (spcialists) are white. When you look at the moderate/conservative bucket ots very diverse.

    Therefore, as the party shifts to the radical left they are ik danger of losing their minority monopoly. How do you keep that bloc when your policies dont align? Identity politics and this resolves why the left has decided to divide the country.

    However, the work this asministration as well as groups like turning point is changing the tide.

    People love to say that trump and his sipporters are racist but ignore almost half of hispanoc americans support him. Watch the african american voting block jump in 2020 for trump.
