Trump's RAISE Act is Almost the Same as Dems' 1995 Recommendations
Black & Blonde Media ^ | 8/4/17 | Black & Blonde Media

Democrats and their media are making the RAISE Act all about racism and xenophobia against immigrants while conveniently ignoring the fact that immigrating to the United States is a privilege, not a right.

But what's even more amazing is that what's in the RAISE Act is not a Trump concoction created out of nowhere with provisions foreign to who we are as a nation that welcomes immigrants. It turns out some of very bullet points in the RAISE Act today were proposed before... by Democrats who led a commission to correct the very issues that unskilled, non-English speaking, welfare-dependent immigrants continue to pose today.

Come on. Haven't you heard? It's racist!

If the facts contradict the narrative, then the facts lie.

Besides, you can't be bound by some dusty old 22-year-old ideas. Why, that's SO last century!!!

That Democrat policy was enunciated in her golden tones by none other than Barbara Jordan of Texas. She saw illegal aliens as pushing her fellow Blacks out of jobs and taking resources away from inner cities.

Trump in many ways is a 1995 Democrat. Most Republican are now 2012 Obama Democrats. Democrats are 2016 Obama Democrats, adding the transgender, single payer, global warming, and ISIS support to their 2012 agenda. That’s how far gone we are.

As usual, the rules are always different for democrats. They are despicable people. They are the true deplorables because of their lies and deceit.

Excluding those people is racist.

In most ways, Trump is a Truman democrat.

That was the OLD Dim Party which championed the "Working Man"! Today, they merely champion the imperative to increase their voting blocks!

If this is true, Trump should get on TV and PRAISE the democrats for their fantastic idea! This would cut them off at the knees. Will he do it? Nope.

Rush discussed this last Wednesday. He pointed out that there was NO immigration from 1920 to 1965. Then, Johnson opened it up because the Democrat voting base was shrinking. Once in, the welfare and other transfer payments skyrocketed to cement the poor to their destiny as an ergate forever.

That was before Democrats began suckling the tit of oligarchs, when they represented American workers! Now they are global Communists.

How DARE all of you rascist Americans even suggest that all of those jobs belong to actual AMERICANS!

Your RINO socialist-democrat betters know that you Americans want too much money to grow and build things.

This is the one issue that both the RINOs and the DNC socialist-democrats can agree upon.

Because the corporate-financial interests would love nothing more tuan to reduce the US workforce to mexican labor for chinese wages.

If you object to that, then either you’re incredilbly naive and stupid, or you’re part of it.

And all of you FRee traitors can spare me your bullshit. Most of you are the reason why we’re in this mess to begin with.

Trump is a Truman democrat.

Including the part about having lots of commie spies in his administration.

Why can’t Trump just quietly order the department that vets immigrants to not let them in unless they meet certain criteria. Does it have to be an act of Congress? Can’t the green card boat just get harder to get, without all the fanfare?

If he does it too quietly they will just ignore it.

Otherwise if he issues one a liberal judge will issue a halt order as with the others, citing racism.

I haven't heard Republicans objections to this RAISE, they know that they will get beat up at home if they join Dems in complaining.

CHEAP foreign labor hurt the American black community most... there was a time when that would have mattered to Democrats...

That 'time' is long past...
