A new Washington Post report warned the Biden administration that its 2024 re-election bid may be facing more challenges as new polling shows even Democratic Party voters are sounding like "immigration hawks in the GOP."
Published on Tuesday, the article said the Democratic Party needs to take note of the shift the party is taking on immigration, now that cities in blue states – like New York City –are being stretched thin by the migrant crisis.
"Panicky Democrats don’t need anything else to fret about ahead of the 2024 election. But high on the list of things that probably should register for them right now is the southern border," The Post reported. "That’s because the pro-immigration moment that Donald Trump rather unwittingly ushered in appears to be coming to a close. Even the Democratic base is concerned."
The Washington Post detailed several recent polls as evidence for the warning, like a "remarkable" Siena College poll that revealed the party’s voters are saying things on the topic that are "reminiscent of the views of immigration hawks in the GOP."
Of those polled in New York City – where Mayor Eric Adams has accused the Biden administration of contributing to their migrant crisis – "Nearly as many New York Democrats said migrants coming to the state over the past 20 years have been a ‘burden’ (35 percent) as said they have been a ‘benefit’ (37 percent)," The Post wrote. "Seventy-five percent of New York Democrats said the recent influx of migrants to the state was at least a ‘somewhat serious’ problem," with 47 percent declaring it’s a "very serious" problem.

Don’t provide services or aid, problem solved. After the 1st winter, they will leave.
Uh oh. Are “the parties switching places” again?
Kudos to Abbott and DeSantis for doing what Republicans should have had the brains to do decades ago - make the Democrats feel the pain from their refusal to enforce border security.
Bringing in millions of Illegals to steal taxpayer money could be a really big problem
They don't even care about the environment... It's a crying shame!
It is probably something that even bringing in Newsome will not solve.
Now that we have 35 million in the country illegally, the leftist are suddenly immigration hawks.
Good gawd!
Is Fox News thinking Biden cares about what dem voters think?
That’s a big line of Leeches
You don’t need to be an immigration “hawk” to view a staged invasion of millions of hostile foreigners as a problem.
May-Or-Kas and his buddy Garfinkel are guilty of outright Treason. Just changing the label of an illegal alien to “asylee” because they claim so doesn’t make it all OK.
If to get a second term, Biden temporarily abandons the replacing of the electorate and clamps down at the border, I wonder what his justification will be, what type of emergency he’ll cite?
So they are now trying to assert that the border crisis is all Trump's fault - that he "unwittingly" ushered it in because he is such a racist that anything he opposes Democrats would automatically support?
Why not just admit it was an idiotic self-own - a ballot creation fantasy that went badly awry? /s
If Trump gets elected just watch the war these Illegals start when Trump says they have to go home
In his border policy, the rate of illegal new Democrat votes has to exceed the rate of loss due to disgusted and disenchanted Democrats. It’s a difficult balancing act.
Its not a bug, its a feature...in the intentional destruction of the USA.
They just head to Texas, Flordia, Geo....
Oh, brother. The Gaslight Department at the WaPo is working overtime. Pretty soon we'll learn that Pedo Joe has always been tough on border policy and that Oceania has always been at war with Eurasia.
He sure does, he just had a deadly terrorist attack on U.S. Soil
Whose friggin’ brilliant idea was it that “migrants” need to be “sheltered” at taxpayer expense? The SOB needs to be thrown in jail. There’s a big difference between “migrants” and “refugees” seeking asylum. Refugeez waded the Rio Grande with nothing because they had nothing. “Migrants” waded the RIO GRANDE expecting to be given an instant, illegal alien version of “The American Dream” including everything they need as if they were born crossing the Rio Grande and have nothing yet you can find them all spending the big bucks doing their Christmas shopping at Walmart. Real alien Walmartians.
