Former President Trump Thread

Oh yeah, I'm sure they were at the bottom of that boat, just dreaming the American dream that they were immigrating to a place where their lives would improve.

I'm not sure that's what was stated? As @sixpackshaker already remarked, what he said is true, although one can quibble the his particular choice of words.

Exactly. The word "immigrant" doesn't have to mean free or voluntary. So technically Carson is correct. It's just a really, really poor choice of words.
 
To me it is like the text book that was talking about the same issue. 1st sentence called them slaves, the next sentence called them workers. And the shit hit the fan. Over nothing.

Same speech he talked about how we store memories and we could "download" them and recall things from 60 years ago in perfect clarity. Several memory and brain experts have said, "Uh...no. That's not how that works." I'll give him a pass for sounding stupid on something like the slave trade (even though you'd think as a black man he'd be a bit more sensitive towards the issue) but as a neurosurgeon you think he'd get stuff about the BRAIN right. Right?
 
Texas men might face fine for masturbating, need rectal exam for Viagra under proposed law
Farrar's bill penalizes masturbatory emissions outside a vagina or a medical facility, describing them as "an act against an unborn child" that fails to preserve "the sanctity of life."
Fines collected under the measure would be funneled to the Department of Family and Protective Services for the care of children.
The lawmaker proposes that the state keep a registry of private hospitals and organizations that counsel men to stay "fully abstinent," offer physicians to supervise masturbation and store semen for future conception.
Men seeking a vasectomy, a colonoscopy or a Viagra prescription would first undergo a "medically unnecessary" digital rectal exam and magnetic resonance imaging of the rectum, per Farrar's bill. After the exam, men would have to wait at least 24 hours before they could get the procedure or the prescription they wanted.
tl;dr: What's good for the goose...is good for the gander?

The white house is already denying the numbers before they're released. Also, I thought these numbers were super-confidential because of the audit.
