Can Democrats Find Their Way on Immigration?

“The Democrats onstage saw themselves as morally courageous. American voters, it turned out, saw a group of politicians hopelessly out of touch,” the New York Times reports.

“Standing side by side at a primary debate in June 2019, nine of the party’s candidates for president were asked to raise their hand if they wanted to decriminalize illegal border crossings. Only one of them held still.”

“Six years later, the party remains haunted by that tableau. It stands both as a vivid demonstration of a leftward policy shift on immigration that many prominent Democratic lawmakers and strategists now say they deeply regret, and as a marker of how sharply the country was moving in the other direction.”

What kind of nonsense is this?   The world is wrong, and democrats are right.  Just ask the MSM!

Not when even after decades of dumbing down the 'plantation populations' they are losing those demographics (partly, at least from embracing groups who provoke reactions like "Awww, Hell no!") so they feel the need to import millions who don't even understand the language, just to try to maintain a 'plantation voting base' they might be able to win with, and to skew Congressional Proportionality via inflated census figures in targeted markets.
