Graham has his finger in the wind and it’s blowing Trump. Or another way, Trump casts a big shadow and Graham is getting comfortable in the MAGA shade.

He is a fickle politician that wants to keep his job.

How does this Bill hold up vs. The Fourteenth Amendment?

I don’t recall so completely and quickly forgetting about a politician I once liked after they died like I did with mccain.

Ronald Reagan will be with me until I die.

Rudy will always have a warm place in my heart, though he is not a conservative.

JM was dead to me long before he died.

Ever since the albatross around his neck, Senator John McCain, has gone away...he is an entirely new man.

I'm telling you, McCain bequeathed Lindsey Graham's balls back to Lindsey in his last will and testament! That is the ONLY plausible explanation!

Although it is good to eliminate the incentive the reality is different. Social Security is a pyramid scheme and the funds will run out in the near future. The young people are the ones that pay for the elderly. Therefore, as the population shrinks the outgoing expenses will be higher than the funds coming in.

There have been over 60 Million abortions in this country and most families are not having the minimum of two children that would be needed to replace the husband and wife. Therefore, the rhetoric sounds good but in reality the tax base is shinking because there are not enough people to support all of the government programs. By the time Social Security runs out of money it will be too late.

I'd hold off on that for a while. Talk is cheap.

The Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment guarantees citizenship to any baby born in the United States, with one proviso: you have to be "subject to the jurisdiction thereof". The issue is over whether a baby born to illegal alien parents is subject to U.S. jurisdiction. One argument is that since a person within the United States is covered by the law generally, he is so "subject" and so is a citizen. OTOH, Senator Jacob Howard, who had authored the Citizenship Clause, said that they babies born in the United States of foreigners are not covered by that clause, because their allegiance is to the country of their parents and not to the United States.

The Supreme Court has interpreted the Citizenship Clause multiple times, but never this situation. President Trump's executive order would likely force the issue into the Supreme Court, because there will be Liberal federal judges who will strike it down. This issue could be before the Supreme Court in time for the 2020 campaign.

This bill will fail. But it, and Trump’s EO, will move the Overton window on immigration quite a lot.

This will make the left hysterical.

"He is still a Cheap Labor Express stooge committed to amnesty for illegal aliens and their employers."

This^^.

While I am encouraged by Lindsey's new found courage, this move is just good politics and pandering to the base prior to the election.
