Former President George W. Bush told radio host Hugh Hewitt on April 22 that he is working with the Koch Network to help President Joe Biden pass an amnesty and cheap-labor bill through Congress.
“We’ve got a coalition of like-minded people working this issue,” Bush told Never Trump Hewitt Thursday.
Bush, whose poll rating dipped to 33 percent in 2008 after pushing amnesties in 2006 and 2007, continued:
Now there hasn’t been interparty outreach, yet. But maybe it’s not quite ripe. My view is if the President is sincere about this, he ought to sit down with, you know, some rational Republicans. But … he’s got to finish his initial agenda, however. He’s got a lot on his plate right now. But eventually, I think there’s a deal to be done.
Bush ignores the economic impact of more immigration, and he, instead, suggested that Americans will be irrationally afraid of amnesty. “What’ll happen is people will scream amnesty. And once you lob the word amnesty out there, it scares people.”
Bush did not comment on the damaging impact of immigration on Americans’ wages, nor about how immigration — both legal and illegal — is driving up housing prices, discouraging high-tech investment, and moving wealth from interior states to the coastal states. Nor did he talk about Americans’ right to their own national labor market and their right to fight with employers for higher wages, better conditions, and more labor-saving investment.

He had it coming.
I had a disturbing dream where I had this smart watch and my brother put a nude picture of Paris Hilton on the screen and it wouldn’t come off and my wife was pissed off, customer service hours were over for that day so there was nothing I could do and my wife got in a fight with my brother and almost killed him. Paris then called me and told me I wasn’t getting enough sex.
Pete, dude. Lay off the Sterno.
The Left now love the Chimp. He’s one of them now.
No they still hate him, but now he’s a useful idiot.

Millions of skilled Americans can’t get jobs as the Cheap Indian and Mexican Labor Express is preferred by government and business.
So us skilled Americans should settle for minimum wage starter jobs, while all the decent jobs go to foreign trash?
.... and this foreign trash is usually vastly less skilled than Americans.
