Sanctuary cities are still being raided and having their funding threatened, many are backing down. That is a good thing. Just because you didn't get what you wanted yesterday doesn't mean that it's a failure and nothing can ever get better ever.
Nope, I rejected your assertions because none of them were what I said, so you started making shit up.
You claimed that wages would be cut. Not that wages won't keep up or surpass inflation. You intentionally argued something worse than what was reasonable and now you backed off. I said that wages are rising which they haven't been doing in decades.
So will I. Stop being a black-pilling faggot.
That’s a flat lie, all the Trump admin has done so far is publish a list and none have “stood down”, most just released statements that the Trump admin was lying about their status. SHOW ME ANY ACTUAL LEGAL REPERCUSSIONS OR ARRESTS.
So you didn’t bring up inflation and CPI? Or are you just doubling down on being a disingenuous faggot?
If you’re going to be a complete disingenuous faggot, then put your money where your mouth is. I argued exactly what I said, which is that engineers are making 2/3s of what they did in the 90s, and I proved it. If you want to play total dollar amounts as an “increase” versus inflation adjusted then put your money down and we’ll play that game. Again you’re being a massively disingenuous faggot. Wages are not “increasing now” they are actually LOWER than in 2022 when the starting wage for a mechanical engineer was 83k on average. You know who wages are increasing for? H1Bs, trumps change made them get paid a minimum of 85k for that same mechanical engineer starting salary up from 65k.
40k deported on track for maybe, maybe, 100k as the high estimate of deportations for 2025. At least 120k selected H-1Bs by Trump for fiscal year 2026, and this isn’t even counting legal immigrants aside from H-1Bs. Maybe you should look at the numbers…
I never said they did, you're making shit up again, and demanding different things than what I'm saying. Seems like your job here is to black pill the right.
You didn't argue purchasing power, you argued nominal amounts which we both know was silly.
You're projecting about disingenuousness. I said wages are increasing. That is true from the latest jobs report. You've decided to measure from a different point, a specific wage, to explicitly reject the most recent jobs report, along with all the other good news in it.
This is because you are a subversive trying to black-pill the right.
Why? They don't mean anything to you. You're just going to make up more bullshit by cherry picking dates and rates that fit your narrative? I'm positive the next thing your going to tell me is that immigration increased by 8,000% because the number of migrants in San Antonio increased on Tuesday from Sunday, compared to the week of August 1st in Tallahassee among biochemists; therefore Trump is an open borders advocate and we should never vote in elections.
Here’s what you typed word for word:
I changed backing down to stood down and you’re now crying false equivalence.
Adjusting for inflation is not measuring “purchasing power” it’s making a direct equivalence if the dollar amount matched inflation rate. It is the ONLY rational way to compare different sums of money between two time periods. No business would be around today if they did nominal accounting. Where did I ever say nominal amount?
I literally compared the NOMINAL amount of the starting wage in 2022 to TODAY. It’s lower, deal with it.
So you don’t have an argument because we still have net positive immigration? You can just admit you’re wrong, it’s not that hard.
It's not that I don't have an argument, I made one. Your just not interested in any argument because your point is to demoralize.
I believe this is the part where I'm supposed to call you a jew.
