Remember what Congressman Joe Wilson exclaimed when Obama said his healthcare proposals will not apply to illegals?
He was severely chastised for that outburst. He is really owed an apology.

Because they have nothing to lose. It’s groupthink and they have nothing to gain by going against the socialist grain.
Gotta win the nomination first, and that’s where the electorate is at, on their side.
...mind-bogglingly stupid...
Very accurate description of most Dems.
It’s an amazing progression over the past 10 years.
2008 — Obama wants to provide healthcare coverage for poor Americans
2009 — Will illegal aliens be included? Obama unequivocally says “NO”.
2018 — Democrats push Medicare For All US Citizens — no private health insurance. Just have the government take care of all citizens.
2019 — Democrats unanimously agree that Illegal Immigrants should also receive “free” healthcare.
If they did not, it would be the end of the campaign.
They would be crucified on twitter, and all major media coverage would be full,of hatred.
Well at least the masks are off( excluding the ones
Used by antifa and the other leftist street goons)
Used to be the dims would only admit their
True intentions behind closed doors. Now they are
Stupid enough to show their true intent for
Anyone paying attention.
They raised their hands because they didn’t want to offend illegals. Us, yes, them, no.
many of the American voters who vote D don’t get free health care themselves...
will they still vote for any of these traitors ???
I disagree - It would have been a game changer for the candidate with the guts to go along with common sense. As it was, it shows that all of these twerps are in the deep pockets of the deep pockets.
The truth is ALL Democrats and MOST Republicans want to give your country to fraudulently documented foreigners and have you pay for it.
If the Dems win, what’s the best way to go to Mexico and then sneak back over pretending to be an illegal?
He was severely chastised for that outburst, by Bush League Republicans including Flimsey Grahamnesty.
If Grahamnesty is re-elected he has said he will keep working on getting amnesty for illegal aliens, like he has since 2006.
I dont think they particularly care about illegal immigrants outside of getting them out of their countries to free up farmland for grabby investors as well as for the remittances sent back home. There is a lot of money to be made providing healthcare, and these bastards think they have found a deep pocket since the government will make up the difference. Do they care about running the U.S. into the ground? About as much as an 80’s corporate raider maybe.
Not necessary, just burn all your documents and then you too will be “undocumented”.
“...act as a magnet …”
These “poor” refugee people are no dummies. They know the US provides the greatest number of freebies of any country in the world for foreign migrants with the fewest requirements - in many cases - no requirements. If they can get into the country they have it made for life. - no workee, no problema!!!!
Their constituency is to the extreme left now. Even Biden is now considered “too centrist.”
They want a socialist progressive that believes in globalism and open borders. Free healthcare and free education for even non-citizens. Just anyone in the world just walk in and get everything for free paid for by taxpayers.
And the sad thing is...half the country is on their side. The youth is heavily indoctrinated. And the blue states see no problem letting illegals vote. And the GOP in Congress don’t seem to care one bit.
This country as we know it is literally hanging by a thread.
The welfare state needs clients to grow. The more the better. Every new client provides even more revenue to the welfare bureaucrats.
