White Americans, Swing Voters in Battleground Districts: Immigration Has Made Life ‘Worse’
BREITBART ^ | 9 Jun 2018 | John Binder

Posted on 06/10/2018 6:34:17 AM PDT by Cheerio

The majority of white Americans and swing voters in 2018 swing districts say that change has made life “worse” in the U.S.

In the latest CBS News/YouGov poll, nearly 60 percent of white likely voters who see changes in their neighborhood from mass immigration said that immigration made their community “worse.” Only 15 percent of these voters said immigration has made American life “better.” These likely voters live in swing districts which could be swayed towards either the Republicans or Democrats in the 2018 midterm elections.



Likewise, the majority of swing voters in swing districts say immigration has been a detriment to their community, rather than a benefit, as immigration is often described by the political elite.

More than 60 percent of swing voters who said immigration had changed their neighborhood told pollsters the change has made life in America “worse.” Less than 15 percent of swing voters said immigration had made their life “better.”

Racist whitey, too stupid to appreciate vibrancy when generously provided for him by his betters.

Legal immigration ain’t helping much, either.

I don’t know, maybe the fact an illegal immigrant almost killed my wife and daughter in a head on collusion several years ago makes me biased.../S

It is both legal and illegal immigration. Mainly because we just let anyone in instead of making sure the immigrants will be a benefit to the country.

I don’t understand how anything could be “worse”. We have smartphones and unlimited porn. What more could people possibly want?

Yes, that’s sarcasm.

Yes, why is it so hard for a journalist, or anyone on the left to say, ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT?

For the same reasons they can’t say MUSLIM TERRORIST.

The crime statistics we’ve suffered because of the open door policy of Liberals and RINOs should be in ads 24/7 all across this country. Anyone wonder how these insane Liberals and RINOs would feel if these horrific crimes were perpetrated against them and their families??

Legal immigration too.

No reason to be importing whole communities of third worlders by the millions and plopping them down in white communities in middle America.

There should be close to ZERO Somalians in the US, the Feds have brought in close to a million.

Those who control the media, the banks, and the non elected government have a target date of 2045 to make the US a white minority nation.

Considering that whites make up 62% of the population now, thats a pretty ambitious goal for these scumbags, they would have to bring in about 100 million non whites with zero growth in the white population over the next 25 years.

That’s 4 million a year, and they are VERY upset that Trump has sounded the alarm about their crafty scheme.

Excellent clarification. Leftist are expert at manipulating language. It is all they have. Propaganda is their primary tool. I wish our side would confront each and every cleverly mis appropriated word. As Dennis Prager says, “clarity” is essential for intelligent people to converse/debate. Illegal Alien is precisely correct.

Teddy Swimmer Kennedy opened the floodgates in 1965 with an immigration bill that Lyndon Johnson eagerly signed, as it would guarantee Democrats an unending flood of voters from the Third World.

I hope both of them are paying heavily for that. Right now.

immigration to those who speak English


Great idea.
Pat Buchanan decades ago used to say we would assimilate immigrants from Scotland, Wales, Ireland, etc. much better than the troublesome ones we get. Note that most illegals if they stay and vote and get driver’s licenses have no ambition or intention to study English. They disdain English and us. Even many baseball players! Too obstinate to accept our country and its language.

I think that’s the point. Poorly written headlines and agenda driven article.

How about this headline -

“Allowing Unchecked Immigration has Made America Less Safe.”

We have 330 million people here. We don’t need one more immigrant.

Two things need to happen:

1. Grind illegal alien border crossing to a halt.

2. Go back to the pre-1965 immigration process. Only so many let it from other nations, make sure they assimilate.
