No one has a "narrative" on immigration except you.

The only reason its even in the discourse is because the rich keep duping people like you into making it an issue.

Oh, so the elite convince people like yourself that bringing in immigrants benefits EVERYONE economically and culturally, but at the same time convince others that it hurts US workers? 

I can assure you 99% of the elites narrative on immigration is positive in nature. It's about the money and always has been.

That's a very interesting assurance.  Do you have a source for that number?  Or is it make believe?

He thinks the elite who regularly deflect towards immigrants actually like immigrants.

Record deportations, an aconstitutional, militarized border, and literal concentration camps are just proof that the establishment loves immigration.

---

Yeah, and we still have tens of millions of illegals living in the US and millions of legal immigrants coming into the US every year.

Yeah, the elite really hate immigration coming into the US.

What's the percentage of deportations relative to immigrants coming into the US every year?  A micro fraction, talk about making a mountain out of a molehill.

Yeah its almost like militarizing a border that is thousands of miles long is an unfeasible policy.

Here is a Fox News summary of Cortez's positions:



Note that open borders isn't on the list.

Whoops, Fox News does it again!


They forget that these ideas are really popular right now.


Cortez's response is priceless:

https://twitter.com/Ocasio2018/status/1062731138031120384

It's got over a quarter million likes and over 60,000 retweets.

Quote:

The national survey, conducted among 1,007 adults on July 11-15, revealed that, in general, adults view most federal agencies favorably.

Among the agencies the respondents were asked about, the majority of adults view these agencies favorably:

•The National Park Service, 83%
•The Census Bureau, 69%
•The FBI, 65%
•The CIA, 61%
•The Department of Health and Human Services, 60%
•The Department of Justice, 58%
•The IRS, 57%
•The Environmental Protection Agency, 54%

However, the only agency that wasn’t viewed favorably by a majority of respondents was ICE, which was viewed 47 percent unfavorably compared to 44 percent favorably.

Kyle Kulinski just destroys Chris Stigall on Fox News.  The one part that gives Fox a point is where they interject a short clip of a democratic candidate (Cori Bush) who wasn't ready for a simple tax question (the answer should simply have been the rich should pay more than they are today).  But otherwise, Fox looks moronic.

The is a video about whether Democrats are going too far left.  The answer is clearly no.

---

The problem today for the left is they are way too far out of touch with the radical social issues.  This turns too many people off when it comes to the basic questions of wealth inequality.

The issue of taxation can't be discussed in 2 minutes on TV, it's too complicated.

I agree.

I used to be a Democrat under Obama, but eventually the left became too radicalized. Even senators like Cory Booker, Maxine Watters, Hilary Clinton, and Nancy Pelosi are too desperate to please the alt left. This mistake resulted in many moderates leaving the Democratic party.

And the Democrats don't seem to have any candidates who are willing to be moderate.
