It is quite extraordinary that an individual who said something like this should hold any elected office:
He supports “policies” that make sure laws aren’t enforced. And the only reason he gives for behaving so outrageously is that “everyone knows” these laws are “broken.” The language of a lisping, stupid airhead is combined with the neoliberal determination to dismantle policing.
It’s also fascinating how the word “community” is emptied of meaning and perverted. And how his actual voters – which the illegal migrants he’s talking about aren’t supposed to be – are completely disregarded. They aren’t a community. They are altogether absent. The only real communion happens around breaking laws and weakening the nation-state.
And still, people went and voted for this unintelligent ideologue. And they’ll do it again, refusing to see any connection between their own actions and the results of those actions.
“laws… broken”
Is that a deliberate double meaning?

Remember, when republicans defy federal law (Texas securing their border), that is Fascism. When democrats do it (sanctuary cities), it is moral and righteous.

That’s the problem with the U.S. (and the rest of the “free west”)—it’s become too much of an ideolocracy. (Not much better than a theocracy or corporatocracy.)
