I think the one silver lining of this dark catastrophe of a presidency is this:
We can stop pretending like the hatred of brown people has validity.
For years, I've heard: "I don't dislike immigrants, just the illegal ones." Though I disagree with the idea, it's fair at least. Maybe you're a stickler for the rule of law.
However, if that were true, these same people would be outraged at the illegality of Trump's attacks on immigrants and brown people in general. Deportations without hearings. The attempt to override the constitution by fiat. The unprecedented deployment of troops on US soil. The brutal arrests of US citizens, like this one theguardian.com
Yet, in the face of such reckless lawlessness, every Republican I know is unoffended. Which tells us a stone cold fact: It's always been about hatred of brown people, never about enforcing immigration laws.
The cruelty and hatred is the point. Once you understand that, you can make sense of why we would deny a fucking little league team the right to enter the country.

"....Gigantic Assholes"
I find hard core conservatives to have very TIGHT assholes....like clenched up. That's why they're full of shit.
Just look up Gumaman and skinbung's comments over the years as evidence.
Puddy, not so much.....he likes to take a quorum from all of us, thus a stretched anal sphincter.

LIB COPE SQUAD IN THE HIZZZOUSE!!!
The collective Lib Cope Squad penis size is probably around that of a large mouse's.
...but yeah, a little league team as national security risk? That doesn't make any sense.
