• The Triangle

    From Mike Powell@1:2320/105 to JEFF THIELE on Saturday, June 04, 2022 10:21:00
    Things were looking up in Honduras before this... now they are part of the triangle. Oh, and I know, even though she took credit for it in her original memoirs, it is some other, more-conservative person's fault. I personally take her now-redacted word for it.

    Trump was in office for four years. Immigration was a subject of great concern for him. What did he do to make things better in the triangle?

    The same things that Biden's administration is doing. Keeping in mind that
    my statement above (and the link that accompanied it) was in regards to
    things our government has done to make things *worse* in the triangle, I
    would go on to say he did less harm than the Obama administration.

    US interference in Central America goes a lot further back than the Obama Administration. Iran-Contra ring any bells?

    Yes, but Iran-Contra did not lead to this most recent issue in the
    Triangle (the one that Hillary took credit for), and does not cover for the fact that the supposedly better Democrats did not learn anything from the mistakes of those horrible Republicans (and Democrats) that came before them.

    Hillary's actions (or lack thereof), which she took credit for, lead a
    country from being fairly stable to being one where thousands supposedly
    need to flee quite a long way to get here, which was the original point...
    that we need to stop doing things that make their countries less desirable
    to live in.

    Indeed it did form part of the path to where we are today. But I wouldn't
    give Kamala too much of a hard time if the Great and Stable Genius Donald
    Trump couldn't fix it.
