I assumed it was a COVID health thing.
Yes, he said we need to make sure Americans get those jobs first. I don't think immigrants are taking jobs Americans want

What is this in reference to?
He is referencing the immigrant hold for 60 days. Crowes is the typical leftist not caring how many migrants come in, and I'm the typical right wing guy worrying about Americans
Agriculture migrants are actually exempt from his order. So it really isn't anything more then a racist dog whistle for his base.

I love how you and the rest of the liberal left thinks everything is racist when he does something. You probably thought haulting flights from China for mon Americans was racist too huh

I have nothing good to say about Biden and have zero desire for him to be the nominee.

He is, so you are in a predicament. Do you cast your vote for him because it's a vote against Trump (kind of like how a lot felt about Hillary)?

What does this accomplish then other to whip his base up into thinking he's protecting their jobs from the boogie man that doesn't exist?

Not really biden doesn't have nearly the same baggage as Clinton to the average voter imo. Trump could win I'm not gonna sit here and guarantee he's gonna lose but I hear first hand from people that voted for Trump last time that have serious doubts about him this go around so we'll see what happens.

Still makes you wonder why this isn't newsworthy in mainstream media.

how so? I'd vote a 3rd party if they aligned with what I want for policies and if they had a legitimate shot at winning.

That's how, perfectly said.

So you are saying you would write in a candidate or not vote for either of them? And you are saying that people should do this in elections when it is clearly a Trump vs Biden? I would bet 90% of Americans don’t feel they have a choice other than the two candidates even with the 5 never heard before that end up on the ticket.

You really don't. Nobody is willing to give an election away by voting a 3rd party. It happened in '92 with Ross Perot, a lot of Republicans voted for him and it cost papa Bush. If Bernie was to throw his name in the hat as an independent this year, Trump would win in a landslide (not just the close win he wins by in November ;))

I'm saying vote for who you thin the best candidate is. Don't have a candidate you feel is the best but feel that's a wasted vote so you have to vote for 1 of the 2 main guys.'

I mean, if you want to get technical, who you vote for and your 1 vote alone isnt' changing the final result, so you're not throwing away your vote at all, and your vote means just as much if you vote for someone who has no shot as you would if you voted for Trump/Biden
