Donald Trump and his Manufactured Immigration Crisis.

[DrLove]

The really scary part is the way he is demonizing immigrants is really similar to how the Nazis demonized Jews.

Now Trump is certainly not Hitler and history does not repeat itself in exactly the same way, but there are parallels which can lead to similar courses of events.

He may not be Hitler, but this certainly bares a resemblance to the pre-WWII rise of Fascism. We may have to suspend Godwin's Law before this is over.

At the very least .. It's very much like McCarthyism. Either we dump the orange bastard soon or we'll be in big trouble.

 

[Claudette]

Donald Trump's signature campaign issue was immigration. He fired up his supporters, creating images of ravening hordes of Mexican invaders raping our women and killing our children. He never lets us forget that those countries "don't send us the best they send us their worst". Be afraid. They're destroying America according to Donald Trump.

What happens if there is no immigration crisis? What happens if border apprehensions are at a 46 year LOW? What does a man like Trump do? He creates a crisis as a vehicle to implement some pretty horrific policies, to beat the nationalist drums, and unite us in fear that "the other" is going to take over decent hardworking white Americans.

And the horrible thing is - he is pretty damn successful at it. Enough so that we ignore the reality in favor of Trump World. We ignore working together on a much needed SANE and SUBSTANTIAL immigration overhaul in favor of a crisis management approach to immigration based on hordes that simply aren't there and myths that are blatently untrue.

Analysis | There’s no immigration crisis, and these charts prove it

Myth No. 1: Undocumented immigrants are flooding into the United States

In fiscal 2017, apprehensions of immigrants entering illegally at the Southwest border (a proxy for the total number of individuals crossing the border illegally) hit their lowest level in 46 years.

Myth No. 2: Undocumented immigrants bring crime

The reality is just the opposite: A large body of social-science literature has demonstrated that immigrants, legal or otherwise, commit crime at lower rates than native-born Americans. This chart, using Texas Department of Public Safety data compiled by the libertarian Cato Institute, illustrates this quite clearly.

Myth No. 3: Immigrants take our jobs and lower our wages

This is a more complicated question than the previous two. The best information comes from a massive summary of the literature published by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine (NASEM) in 2017. “Most studies find little effect of immigration on the employment of natives,” that report concluded. In other words, no, immigrants are not taking your jobs.

Myth No. 4: Immigrants are a drain on the economy

In fact, research by the Cato Institute has found that poor noncitizens are considerably less likely than poor native-born Americans to use public assistance programs.​

The only people manufacturing a crisis are idiots like you.

Its the law and has been going on since before 2014.

I never heard you or anyone else on this board mentioning what was going on then. It was the same thing going on now.

No one gives shit one about a bunch of supposed refugees and their kids.

Like illegals we want them out of our country. We sure as shit don't need to support the assholes.

Kick them all back across the border. Let Mexico deal with their stupid asses.

Show me the zero tolerance Law of 2014.

I couldn't care less. I and many others want all illegals our of our country.

You sure didn't mind the pictures from 2014.

You're kind of an idiot, in your thread you cited 2014 but now couldn't care less. You cannot cite a law can you?

You are the idiot.

Those pictures were all over the airwaves for days and no I couldn't care less about any of those idiots who are in our country illegally.

Look it up dumbass. Its was the law in 2014 and its the law today.

 

[Ecocertifmrl]

I'm still waiting for the left to explain why we should allow millions of illegals to pour across our borders illegally? They can't so they deflect or run away.

Have you heard a certain leftist say "we should allow millions of illegals to pour across out border illegally."

Based on the scattered form of the sentence I assume it was written by no one else but you.

No but I have read a couple of your posts, welcome to the On Ignore lounge, buh-bye.

Not much of a loss for me, is it?

 

[Olde Europe]

Your non answer is noted. Are you too gutless to admit why?

No problem. You may play with your self-erected straw man as long as you want. Why would we interfere? Just because you look ridiculous while so doing? Naw, you look exactly how you should...

You people block any attempt at securing our borders, why? The left can't answer this simple question, are they embarrassed?

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

The Trump ‘zero-tolerance’ immigration policy has left many with zero confidence in the admin’s ability to quickly reunite children w/ their parents. The admin should appoint a Czar to break thru the bureaucracy & get these kids out of limbo & back in their parents arms.

Sounds serious.
We should warn the illegal aliens to stop coming.

It certainly is a manufactured crisis. Manufactured by globalist pigs and un-American regressives.

You don't really really care about the law, right wingers.

Congress can simply change, those laws.

We should be Making money not Losing on foreignationals, like the Right Wing, is wont to do.

And, 10USC246 is about "national security". Is the right wing, really really serious about our alleged Invasion from down south.

Because, federal militia laws trump federal Immigration laws, any day of the week.

So, right wingers, don't deflect and run away, like y'all usually do.

I saw the Cato Institute analysis, too.
Trump's war on immigrants is to woo his base.
His base is poor, uneducated white people who are scared to death that America is getting a too-brown complexion. They won't dig into the facts, they just listen to Trump, slack-jawed and then applaud when Trump whines about his wall and how it's got to be built. They think that's going to fix the problem. It won't.

round up the white women and assign quotas!

Shut up. Everything you say here is akin to flat Earthers and the Moon landing hoaxers. There isn't any point in arguing with you. Every single one of your 4 points is deeply flawed and without balance. So, go ahead have a merry unbirthday and say hello to the mad hatter.

It is you who is living in a fantasy land:

Arrests For Illegal Border Crossings Hit 46-Year Low

Trump Administration Rejects Study Showing Positive Impact of Refugees

The U.S. now has a record 6.6 million job openings

The Myth of the Criminal Immigrant

The so called “crisis” on the southern border doesn’t exist. It’s a lie to frighten Americans into voting for Republicans.

First it was “caravans” of thousands of illegals crossing Mexico. Two hundred people showed up at the border to claim asylum.

Trump is lying and fool that you are, you’re buying into it.

You gotta love a piece that uses stats from the CATO institute that any other time liberals would kick to the curb; however, when it says what we want it to say then we eat it up. Additionally, the massive summary of the literature that discusses their ability to speak English and their levels of education claims that it's complicated. It isn't that complicated. Great job trying to dumb it down. It depends on what country they are coming from in large part.



That's both disappointing and borderline disgusting.

Did you actuallyuslly read the article on why it is complicated?

Well first someone has to care if they get reunited.

Most people couldn't care less about these people.

If they hadn't tried to get into the county they would all be together.

They all need to be booted back across the border. Then they can be together in Mexico.

Democrats created the child trafficking/immigration crisis by inviting criminals to the border and promising them safe passage if they just brought a kid with them. Obama TOLD traffickers to flood the border. I commented on it at the time, and retarded pro-trafficking shills like you and jills pretended that such a thought was crazy.

"...every Senate Democrat has signed onto legislation that would end all border enforcement, a plan that Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) said should be called the “Child Trafficking Encouragement Act,” as it sets free every adult border crosser so long as they smuggle a child across the border with them."

We told you when you started doing it that it would increase child trafficking. Now that child trafficking has increased and you can no longer deny it because it's impossible to deny it, you pretend that we are the ones responsible for it.

It's all you. You are the party of child sex trafficking and the MS13.
