In name of multiculturalism? Besides they are reliable democrat voters eventually. First Reagan gave millions of illegals blanket amnesty. Then the Bushes neither pushed for the wall, nor made any attempts to deport illegals. And now the majority GOP congress is slow walking funding the wall. My point is, the blame goes all around.
I’ll take a thousand illegals from Mexico over one if these Muslim communist terrorists.
On this issue, it has gone back to around 1985. And yes, both parties were the problem.
I defend Reagan. Here’s why.
As we are told today there are only 11 million illegals in country, Reagan was told there was only 1 million. In his speeches, he explained there was only 1 million that would take advantage of the amnesty. As soon as he signed the legislation, 3.5 million signed up under it.
We could count on 30 million plus signing up, perhaps significantly more.
Reagan addressed why he signed it. He addressed the 1 million illegals in the nation at the time, and how unacceptable that was. He signed the bill granting them amnesty, because that same bill put into effect harsh penalties for hiring illegals.
Employers were subject to large fines. There may have been a renter’s clause, subjecting landlords to stiff fines. I’m not sure if either touched on confiscation. They may have.
Then George Bush came along. So did Clinton, GW, and Obama. None of these people enforced the new laws Reagan signed into law.
Oh they were thrilled that the amnesty was enforced, but they had not desire to do their Constitutional duty.
Reagan did his best to make things right. If the laws he signed into law had been enforced, we wouldn’t have many illegals in our nation.
The Bushes, Clinton, and Obama didn’t give a damn about 10, 20, 30, or more illegals being in our nation. Remember, Reagan railed on 1 million being here.
There isn’t a snowball’s chance in hell Reagan would be up for an amnesty today.
If he had remained president, those laws would have been religiously enforced.
We’ve been sold out since January 1989.
That Bush family is flat ass wicked. They’re not much better than the Clintons or Obama.
