All the open-borders crowd, not surprising.

Yes. But it is an old problem. Henry Cabot Lodge, Sr., who was the Republican leader in the Senate in 1919, denounced those business interests at the time, who basically saw all nations as the same, so long as they could make money in them.

I do not have the essential quotation from his speech where I am typing this, or I would offer a paragraph or two, to make the point. Lodge was a practical politician; but he was not afraid to put America First. In the 97 years since, fewer and few of our practical politicians have been willing to clearly put America first, when challenged by those who put profit before country.

This goes to the essential issue in the Trump campaign, putting America first. (The Issue.)
