What he said in that clip is that it's not a bad thing. Do you disagree? Is it bad that white people are no longer the majority in the US?

Increasing the diversity of our country? Bringing in new people with new ideas? Immigration is what made the US what it is today. I see no reason why we shouldn't look to immigrants to build our future as well.
Imagine if Nikolai Tesla had stayed in Romania.

Imagine if the Democrats murder the smartest man on the planet and tank American companies who are in direct competition with our enemy, China.

It's what they are both threatening and trying to do.

It's insane at this point. America is back, and all the transtifa and antifa and blm and all the other Marxist civil unrest squads are persona non grata as of now.

No more. This is a nation not a kindergarten. Let's grow up and get on the business of making sure our people have their needs met.

We've given enough. It's time our own people are no longer oppressed in their own country, most especially not oppressed by foreign criminals and terrorists.

We’re nearing the political territory of not knowing that there’ll be future elections, yet we get bogged down on if immigrants will be voting for a particular Party.
We are nowhere near the political territory of worrying about if there will be future elections or not.

Every government job that is "taken away" allows a chance for a smaller burden of taxpayers funding a gigantic federal government. Let those excess government workers get jobs in the private sector and actually do more to significantly add to the private sector of the nation's economy. That is a far better idea than taxpayers continuing to pay for a federal government that is much too massive.

This is the current projection for House seat (and thus electoral college vote) apportionment in 2030:

Do you have any issues with it?
What I do like the most in that projection is the domestic migration out of hard core Blue states controlled by the Democratic Party.

Yes, it's not like a sitting president ever said that we will never have to vote again if he was elected. Where do people get these crazy ideas?

In dollars adjusted for inflation in 2016 the Federal Government spent 20% of all GDP, now it is around 24%. I think we can get it back to those earlier levels but with more interest on the debt and expenditures still rising in popular programs, it will not be easy. Also, there really are some government programs that produce growth. Infrastructure spending for instance. Not all grants are wacky either some really do help us into the future.

There also is a likelihood of creating or exacerbating a recession by trimming government and raising tariffs. Consumer confidence is souring, inflation is persistently above 2% and I think the pain going forward will surprise a lot of people. Europe already near zero or even negative growth in some countries. Other than AI and some tech areas there is not much of a catalyst for growth going forward. Even removing a million undocumented is going to contribute to less economic growth as many are productive workers to USA growth.

I guess we will see how it all shakes out soon enough. God bless.

Unfortunately, it appears that some cannot distinguish the difference between hyperboles used during a campaign and the more serious words and actions of a politician after the campaign.

Also unfortunate that some people only use hyperbole.

It is unfortunate that you appear to believe that he really meant his hyperbole from campaign speeches instead of what President Trump is actually doing.

What hyperbole do you see in what Aryeh Jay posted?
How do you discern Trump's hyperbole from his lies?

It is not difficult at all for me to discern campaign hyperbolic rhetoric from what President Trump actual actions.

He was serious. He wanted the non voting Christians (there's 40 million of them) to vote.

Figured one term to get some things done and get the normal voters back for the 2028 candidate. (Trump lost a few voters because of personality, he was hoping to make up with the principled Christians who don't vote, again, there's 40 million of them).

He was speaking to a Christian conference when he said that. Speaking specifically to the 40 million non voting Christians.

They only needed to vote the once. We just have to get the country back on track. I think we need them in 2028 too though. Trump figured just once would be enough to get everyone back for 2028's candidate though.

I do assume we are going with Vance, but you never know.

1. Lies are statements that he has said that have already been shown to be untrue.
2. Hyperbole is what he's said that haven't yet reached that point.

Remember that the next time you or a relative need to apply for Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security Benefits, Health & Humans services, Disaster Relief funds etc. Arbitrarily firing tens of thousands of workers - workers who serve the American people - will most definitely have an impact on the services provided by these agencies. Instead of a real person, you might be interacting with a bot or endless phone trees or someone from India....
