And that initially affected 1.5 million illegals. Through chain migration it added millions of democrat voters to the state. Now even a moderate republican has a snowballs chance in hell here. Gun rights are being gobbled up, fraudulent voting is rampant.
We used to be a swing state. Now the conservative agenda is extinct.
Any suggestion that we should repeat this fiasco tenfold is an absolute deal breaker for me. I will NEVER support a candidate who supports it.
I agree with you on California. What we seem to miss is that Hispanics are growing number even legally in the U.S. Their families are twice the size as an average Caucasian family. Hispanics are natural republicans when it comes family values and free trade. If we where not so insane about legal immigration then we would do well. I am solid against amnesty but I know some way forward has to be articulated. Trump does not have a clue. Cruz is a machine that tell constituents what they want to hear. I am from Texas and have known him a long time. He is not nearly as electable as people think in a national election, even though I supported him and voted for him here in Texas. I don’t think he can win.
Ditto. Rubio is unacceptable to me because he is pro-amnesty. If we had a congress who would stand up to him, I could probably tolerate his waywardness on this issue. However, with spineless RINOs like McConnell and Ryan running things, the gang of 8 immigration plans will have clear sailing. Too bad. He is likeable and young, but amnesty is a major deal-breaker for me.
