Bernie's half-hearted remarks opposing illegal immigration are just empty rhetoric for a constituency of Democrat voters that has largely vanished: private sector labor union members who opposed illegal immigration and mass immigration generally. They no longer have any clout and their leaders have sold themselves to the DNC's agenda - including open borders. Fifty years ago they were politically relevant and opposed to cheap immigrant labor, but those days are long gone.
Bernie's base now consists of Social Justice Warriors and Antifa types. They want open borders. They want race-based reparations. They want Viva La Raza and a BlackLivesMatter race war. Bernie will say and do what these people want, not what labor union leaders wanted 50 years ago.
Exactly! You are spot on.
To see ANYONE state otherwise, and actully promote Bernie here, is shocking.
