Free Trade has led to China ascendancy and the pilfering of intellectual theft of our property, and China taking advantage of us. When tariffs are applied against us, is it free trade when they get access to our market with no tariffs on them?
Ronald Reagan in 1986 allowed immigration when he thought that there would be border security. He legalized them and the condition was border security. He was against
The Simpson-Mazzoli compromise bill (the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986) was predicated on the bargain that in exchange for blanket amnesty for 3 million illegal immigrants**, liberals would honor their half of the bargain by following through with closing the border. Instead, illegal immigration soared, as word got out that the amnesty was accompanied by a de facto open border.** In 2006, President George W. Bush signed the Secure Fence Act, whose professed intent was the completion of the border fence, but which was almost immediately encumbered with a number of waivers that postponed any action.
Reagan even Bush was not for open borders and they wanted Border Security. Now, drugs are coming in and destroying thousands of lives of Americans and many of the Latina women girls are getting raped when they come in, not good for them either.
Trump is against equality? In what way is he against equality and how are his policies different from other Republicans?
Separation of Church and state. What Church did he want to Nationalize? The attack on religious conscience has definitely gotten worse. Liberals are trying to force Catholic Hospitals to do abortions. Catholic Bishops hail medical conscience protection by Trump administration | Catholic News Agency
Trump offered consience protections for Catholic hospitals. He helped Little Sisters of the Poor. Liberals are for taking away those rights. The attack on religious freedom is more urgent than in the past. Helping to defend religious freedoms from attacks by Democrats is pretty conservative imo and is not establishing religion.
Now, these things you mentioned are pre Trump Republicanism, absoluitely none of the Lincoln Project Democratic candidates campaigned on any of these things. Nothing about Free Trade.
Now, the Lincoln Project did not run on these issues any way. Immigration, open borders of Democrats were not in line with any of the past Republican Presidents. Lincoln Project people are liberal, and you guys like it. But the Lincoln Project commercials are based on attacks from the Left, absolutely none of them are attacks from a past Republican point of view.
