Gotta love how, once again, the DUmmies are making it seem like he's opposed to ALL immigrants.
News flash: He, like at least 98% of Republicans, are only opposed to ILLEGAL immigration! All we seek is that our existing immigration laws be properly enforced.
It is not just the (D)Ummies, it is the entire left that operates in this way. It has always been a mystery to me, why conservatives do not take this issue away from the left completely. All it would take is two things:
1) Be crystal clear when talking about illegal entry into this country, take the phrase 'illegal immigrant' back from the left.
2) Follow it up by getting several hundred people who are "in the line" to become 'legal immigrants' and people who have completed the process up on stage at every rally and presser. Force the left to choose between slapping them in the face publicly or shutting up: "When we talk about illegal immigrants we refer to those who immigrate illegally to this nation. The left says "people aren't illegal", by that logic, the left doesn't consider you folks who are working so hard to become citizens, to be legal". Attack them on it. Repeatedly.
The left supports and embraces those who are doing it wrong. The correct response is to bring those who are 'doing it right' into the context and discussion of illegal immigration until its central to the discussion. Rinse and repeat with slight variation as needed.
Why we do not see more of that, I do not know.
