President Trump did A LOT to protect US residents
(citizens and otherwise) from a pandemic through various inputs of advice from
which he had to choose options. He did a damned good job of it, given all the
confusions and unknowns -- and a huge help was making illegal immigration more
difficult. Now we have a president who supports keeping US residents
"hostage" and constrained while letting thousands upon thousands of
illegals committing criminal acts bombard our country with all the "proven"
evidence of the medical/physical contaminants they are bringing along with
them.
Meanwhile, I am witnessing my own family member who
for over two years now has been going through the "legal" process of
bringing an educated, hard-working Cuban lady and her two elementary-school-aged
twins to this country. Sometimes black
and white has no room for grey. Any respectable person with adequate brain
cells knows that in order to do good, we have to first be strong and competent
ourselves -- otherwise we all sink or, at the least, all stay just surviving
but certainly not thriving.
I suggest leaving sympathy at the door until we can
AFFORD to be sympathetic for a more win-win situation. And that time comes as
we have seen time and again throughout the USA's short history. We've done more
for other nations than all the nations in history with their long time in
existence. And we have not attained that ability to provide for ourselves AND
others by denying ourselves first.
