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.
Here’s what you typed word for word:
Sanctuary cities are still being raided and having their funding threatened, many are backing down.
I changed backing down to stood down and you’re now crying false equivalence.
You didn't argue purchasing power, you argued nominal amounts which we both know was silly.
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?
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.
I literally compared the NOMINAL amount of the starting wage in 2022 to TODAY. It’s lower, deal with it.
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.
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.
My point is to be pragmatic. If pragmatism is “demoralizing” to you then it means you have cognitive dissonance issues to work out.
There is no pragmatism in your criticism. It's unthinking, impatient, resentment mongering.
Next you'll be unironically screaming "TACO!"
Righttttt. So can you bring anything to the table other than “trust the process” and “you’re just blackpilling”?
