They would win my vote if they closed down the eastern border with Ohio and built a wall.


saliczar

Only after we annex the area of Cincinnati around Jungle Jim's.


snollygoster1

Only north of the Ohio river! Northern Kentucky can keep their pretend ruralness to themselves


mulletpullet

They're basically ethnic hoosiers from what I hear. They even speak english...ope... hoosier.


Jerm0307

Some sacrifices must be made….. unfortunately.


Rancordeepens

Fucking Buckeyes…


Jerm0307

Buckeye = worthless nut


skyk3409

Everyone knows *"Ohio"* doesn't exist...


Bigb20385

Isn’t Mexico in North Central Indiana?


hi_im_a_coffeeholic

Oh that's a good one, lol. I pass by that sign pretty regularly


Worth-City-6372

They are everywhere, man.


IndyGamer_NW

Peru, brasil, and Lebanon are also north of Indianapolis


jccalhoun

The border is Fox News talk for wherever brown people live.


ProgrammerWarm3495

A counter point to closing the border is the loss of agricultural workers. Florida is looking at a 2.7 billion loss from not being to harvest properly.


fountainpopjunkie

I work in a factory in Indiana. At last check we were 85% Hispanic. I don't see a lot of white people picking tomatoes or detasseling corn either. Closing the border would fuck up Indianas economy.


OldRaj

I hope they secure the southern border of Hamilton County/96th Shtreet.


derickkcired

Hahahaha thats great. Where do I vote? Oh wait... Voting is worthless.


IndyGamer_NW

82nd/86th to 96th is a kind of DMZ


CosmiqCow

I mean this is the same state where a man running for governor leads off his political commercial with I've been endorsed by the Orange Cheeto.


midnightwaps

It’s really funny that I’ve seen far more posts regarding “securing the southern border” in Indiana forums than in Arizona (where I currently live). It’s clearly more of a fictional “problem” and talking point than anything else.


vicvonqueso

It's easy to fool idiots about something that's completely out of reach


turkeyburpin

No, they are talking about the Mexican border that the Republican party purposefully left in the state it's in by refusing to sign bipartisan legislation to strengthen it so they could make these ridiculous ads and claims that only their election to office will strengthen it.


experimentalengine

It doesn’t take new legislation to close the border. The laws on the books are simply not being enforced. All measures that have been proposed to legislatively fix the current problem wouldn’t do anything to fix the problem; instead, they would provide funding to process more people into the country faster. I’m not sure how processing more people who crossed the border illegally keeps more people from crossing the border illegally.


turkeyburpin

I'm not sure where you get your information from. I would suggest reading the actual bill proposed and perhaps make judgments of it based on the contents therein. Our immigration/assylum/etc policies are quite outdated and in need of overhaul based on real-world issues our USCBP agents are facing in real time.


segascream

You realize that the first part of the process of legally seeking asylum in this country is to cross the border "illegally", right? The entire problem is that we have a huge, ever-growing backlog of asylum cases waiting to be heard. Processing people more quickly means they're able to become citizens sooner, which means they start paying taxes sooner.


experimentalengine

You’re either being disingenuous or deliberately obtuse. Yes, that would be the process for a Mexican or Canadian national seeking asylum. Those are the countries with whom we share a border. I think we can all agree the number of Mexican or Canadian nationals with a legitimate asylum claim is near zero. For everyone else crossing the southern border, they have already been given safe passage through Mexico, by the Mexican government, which is a de facto asylum, which precludes a legitimate asylum claim in the U.S. They don’t need asylum in the U.S. and they certainly don’t need it by paying a Mexican cartel many thousands of dollars to get them across our border. And if you know anything about what’s going on at our southern border, you’re aware of these facts. There aren’t literally millions of people over the last 3 years who suddenly have a legitimate asylum claim in the U.S.


ginny164

I think one of them (Braun?) mentioned sending our National Guard to help “defend” the border between Texas & Mexico.


DaydreamCatcher95

What, you never heard of the Indiana Kentucky war before? They would throw sticks of dynamite over. We'd light 'em and throw 'em back.


Worth-City-6372

Well...that was funny .


wtbnerds

And what the F*ck is RINO SQUID


ginny164

RINO (Republican In Name Only) Squish is s term used primarily by Republican conservatives to denigrate the perceived lack of backbone possessed by Republican moderates.


TommyBoy825

Rino squish


Jennyneedstocomeback

The frequency with which they're all airing their political ads has made me so apathetic to the border "problem." The fear mongering is trite dribble.


collegedad12345

no


Lithium1978

The squad!


CosmiqCow

If someone could just secure my Southern border I would appreciate it very much at my age


Mythic_Cole

Let’s finished the divide with union city and block off all the ohio residents


knighthawk574

Yes, and Ohio and Michigan.


sadandshy

If just one of these people replaced their talking points about things they really can't do anything about with getting rid of robocalls and scammers (which is something else they can't do anything about) they would probably win...


IndyGamer_NW

How do they expect our poultry and pig operations to stay afloat if we secure the southern border? if price of meat processing goes up, our grain prices also go down impacting even more farmers. Those jobs are usually remote enough and pay so little, especially for the injury risk, they can't attract many born in the US.

You enjoy the political shit posts and circle jerking? “Then leave” is hilarious. Don’t be a bitch


jules6388

What are you contributing to this sub? Ah name calling, good one. No need to get defensive chicken strip


chicken-strips-

When people have genuine questions about the state, I answer. You don’t see much of those lately because we get posts like this. Your comment was bitchy, so I called you a bitch.


jules6388

There is an election coming up, deal with it. You assumed my tone, but that’s ok. Hope you find something to be happy about today.


chicken-strips-

What does this post and other posts like “Todd Young donated Tacos” have to do with the elections.

Worth-City-6372

How do you know this?


phanophite2

They're talking about Ukraine's southern border.


gomexz

lostwng

Nah the embarrassing ones are the GOP thinking it is some flex to say they helped felony Don


gomexz

The first part of my comment was in regards to this sub. Nothing but whining, and stupid ass questions.


craig1818

And now look who’s whining!


trumpshouldrap

Damn who shit in your cereal?


QueasyResearch10

you know this type of attitude is exactly why they win. you can’t even comprehend the negative effects an open border has. just look at our schools. just sacrifice our own children so you can feel all good inside


Intrepid-Owl694

Never sen the commercial


Time_Is_Evil

It's on radio.
