Yep. Schultz dropped out today. They ravaged him with the media's help for trying the moderate the rhetoric.
Poll: Increasing Immigration is Most Unpopular 2020 Political Position
Increasing illegal and legal immigration to the United States is the most unpopular position a 2020 presidential candidate can take, as well as giving illegal aliens the right to vote, according to a new poll.
The latest Harvard/Harris Poll finds that 2020 presidential candidates who want to increase overall immigration to the U.S. — while the country already admits 1.5 million foreign nationals every year — are the least likely to win over American voters.
When all U.S. voters were asked which position would make them the most unlikely to vote for a 2020 presidential candidate, “opening our borders to many more immigrants” topped the list with 64 percent.
Increasing immigration was the top most unpopular position among swing voters, with 66 percent saying they would be unlikely to vote for a 2020 presidential candidate who favors such a policy. Wanting more immigration to the U.S. was also the most unpopular position among Republican voters, conservatives, Trump supporters, voters who identify as “moderates,” white voters, American men, voters without a college degree, rural voters, and suburban voters.
Even among Hispanic voters and black Americans, increasing immigration was the second most unpopular position a 2020 presidential candidate could take — just after increasing taxes to pay for social programs.
Likewise, American voters are nearly unanimously opposed to giving illegal aliens the right to vote, as some left-wing communities have implemented. San Fransisco’s Department of Education, for example, started allowing non-citizens to vote in citywide school board elections last year.
The vast majority of Americans, 85 percent, said they oppose such a policy, including 80 percent of Democrat voters, 86 percent of swing voters, 75 percent of self-described “liberals,” 77 percent of black Americans, and 73 percent of Hispanic voters. Only 15 percent of Americans said they support giving illegal aliens the right to vote in U.S. elections.

Which liberal candidate are you backing to end this economic catastrophe?
He is talking about having expertise in one field does not mean expertise in other fields. Most intellectuals believe that because they are an expert in A, then they must know x, y, z.

Eat your neighbors! Save the planet!!
After reading more in depth and as a man of principle I owe Mr. Abdul Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani an apology. He's not a Jihadi. Just a down on his luck disgruntled employee.
Evidently he was a model employee and master mechanic that's been with AA for 30 years without incident. The failed negotiations really hurt him financially. He didn't sabotage the plane to crash but instead to not even fly at all. He was hard up for the overtime that came with repairing it.
Messed up part is most people won't care. Like me they're going to read/hear AA mechanic named Abdul Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani sabotages plane and automatically assume Isis terrorist.
Holy shit, a hundred? There are north of 5 million people in metro Toronto. This makes it clear that the majority of Canadians hate Chick Fil A.
Booker colluded with the Russians. We need an investigation! Booker is now Putin's puppet.
Would love if Trump went to Mar a Lago, drew a hurricane sharpie map with lines to Washington DC, platinums Mom’s basement, and Edstein’s house ( after removing all the captive children, of course) and tested whether bombing the destinations instead of the hurricanes would stop the hurricanes from coming.
Fair enough and I would agree... except for the "I'm a a pretty damn normal guy" part... I mean you ARE Canadian lol.
Of course it is: damn Amish.
Of course if you bot us all some poutine from La Banquise all would be forgiven.Yes, "normal" is a relative term in this case as it relates to my Canuckian heritage

That stuff is un-fvcking-believable.
Was in Montreal on vaca for a week, ate poutine 5 of the 7 days... and gained 7 POUNDS that week. Worth every pound.
Dude, poutine is so damn good. The very first thing I do every time I get to Canada is go somewhere and get poutine.
You can make it in a pinch. I prefer traditional poutine - fresh cut fries, cheese curds, brown gravy - although they are making a lot of variants now with different cheeses, added stuff (brisket, pork bell, even lobster.) You find the odd establishment that makes it. Winchell's makes it and it's not bad. Not like at home, but it suffices.
Anybody that wants a job can get one or two. I don’t understand how the jobs report could be bad. Bernie will take care of too many jobs available for sure.
Hop Cat has good poutine.
And I had poutine tater tots at the state fair last year. Amazing.

I am going with Trump starts calling Spartacus "Commrade Cory".
"Cory KGB" has a nice ring to it.
I ate at a Chick-Fil-A in E-town yesterday. Craziest thing happened. A homosexual couple was there for lunch... and they didn’t refuse service, chastise, beat, stone, set them on fire, or throw them off the roof.
I was confused because I’ve heard they are anti-alphabet, but they just... treated them like everyone else and brought them their chicken and told them to have a great day? Wtf?
Not to hijack and turn this into the "poutine" thread, but the traditional is delicious.
However, I had "La Scooby" at La Marquis: in addition to the trad toppings, it had fried pickles, bacon, steak, and grilled onions. It was the very definition of "food orgasm".
Carry on.

San Francisco....let's Kate Steinle murderer go...calls NRA members terrorists. Ed probably agrees. Levi.
Chick Fil A has by far the best service and nicest people in the fast food industry. I get treated better there than I do at most sit down restaurants. Shockingly, they've never once asked me what my religious views or sexual orientation is. They just give me delicious food within 90 seconds of me asking for it.
