December 19

10:00 Separation of powers in state was one of the major principles at the base of creation of the US.

Yet Trump keeps signing at high rate executive orders that interfere with laws issued by the legislative branch, and today's case is the Green Card lottery, which law was established by Congress (and countersigned by a President, in this case George Bush) back in 1990.

Trumps apparently acts motivated by anecdotical alleged crimes solved within days (there can be no due process if the only suspect designated by Police is dead, they also have not established a motive or anything yet) committed by this type of immigrants which probably have the same rate or lower than the general population.

For this reason most of his orders are oftenly blocked by judges, or the third branch of government.

This proves one more time that Trump acts erratically and impulsively and his judgment and cognitive functions at this point which can be normal to him need to be questioned.

Green Card lottery was theoretically conceived "to curb illegal immigration" and it aims at bringing in the US immigrants from countries with low rate of immigration by the means of some sort of computer drawing "randomly" selecting from the number of applicants a limited number (55k per year) has pre-conditions like people applying for it should be at least HS graduates or have a trade that needs at least two years of training and they also have to submit their criminal records withing the application.

I would assume applications are first examined by hand before they are admitted to the drawing.

Because it is a computer drawing which no one can verify (we have to trust the government on that) it may of course be open to (hidden) abuses.

12:20 This happened after i wrote the above, right?
