It was when the Democrats went full crazy on illegal immigration that they tore off their “working class” mask.
That toothpaste is _never_ going back in the tube.
The Democratic Party either over-runs the country with illegal immigration and illegal voting or they die.
“It was when the Democrats went full crazy on illegal immigration that they tore off their working class mask.”
The Republican Reagan administration sponsored and enacted an amnesty bill in the 1980’s allowing millions of illegals to stay in this country.
The GOP George H.W. Bush administration failed to establish effective border controls and did not enforce aggressively immigration laws in the early 1990’s, policies which were continued by the Democrat Clinton administration that followed.
The George W. Bush administration in the early 2000’s was lax on border security and actively supported another amnesty until Congress refused to go along. When Congress insisted on border security, and passed legislation requiring a wall, the Bush administration implemented a “virtual” wall instead of a physical wall. The virtual wall was a waste of a billion dollars, essentially a political payoff to Boeing which sold the government technology that accomplished nothing and was abandoned. Bush also increased legal immigration from Muslim countries after 9/11.
McCain, McConnell, Ryan, and other GOP Congressional leaders in the 2010’s have talked a good game on border enforcement for years but where is the physical wall? They failed to use the power of the purse and legislation during the Obama years to force Obama to enforce immigration laws on the books. They sat quietly by when Obama infused hundreds of thousands of “refugees” from third world countries into rural and suburban communities in their states despite the impact on crime and overwhelming of social services. They did nothing to stop the unconstitutional DACA program and have been soft on Trump rescinding the program.
The record shows both parties are full crazy on illegal immigration and the importation unskilled third world immigrants into the country who have no desire to assimilate.
