Do you think illegal immigration is a serious problem? If you are like 67 percent of likely voters, you do. If you think illegal immigration is a very serious problem, you have plenty of company47 percent of voters.
Of course, if you are running for president as a Democrat, you dont think illegal immigration is a problem at all. Eight percent of likely voters agree with you. Not only do none of the Democratic presidential candidates want to build the wall, some of them want to tear down barriers where they already exist. Open borders! Come one, come all!
How can the Democrats be so out of touch with voters on what most regard as a very important issue? I dont know. Illegal immigration is different, too, from issues like reparations and the Green New Deal, which politicians will talk about during the Democratic primaries and then quietly forget about. They are serious when it comes to promoting illegal immigration.
Which is one of several reasons why I dont think any Democrat now in the race, or likely to enter the race, can beat President Trump next year

The difference is between the 67% who see illegal immigration as a “serious” problem and 47% who see it as a VERY serious problem.
It could be seen as a distinction without a difference but nonetheless l do think it is a meaningful difference when it comes to s voters choice of which candidate to vote for in 2020.
First, you are being condescending. I know damn wewll what he is trying to say, and I am not criticizing what he is trying to say. I am tearing him to shreds for his compositional skills.
If I cannot understand clearly what his statistics mean on three re-readings, without projecting my own desired interpretation into it, what I would like the statistics do say, then it is poor composition. Figures lie and liars figure, so I am going to attack anyone, especially on our side, who attempts to rely on statistics whose interpretation and meaning are highly questionable.
