[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The reality is people have always crossed the border and headed to another part of the country. Always. Regardless of who was in the White House.
 
It makes sense that newcomers head to communities where they have friends or family. It makes sense they head to communities where others speak their language.

The government has been doing this forever. It wasn’t too long ago the media covered those flights. Rs are now doing it as a political stunt to make a point. Shrug. Same difference.

You can see how many people enter the US every week/month. The government posts that info (including demographics). The numbers are crazy high.

The DC mayor begged for help before the NY mayor. They realize they can’t shoulder the burden of a constant influx of people. Nobody can. 5,500 migrant students have been enrolled in nyc schools in recent months. Think about that impact alone (ignore the obvious housing crisis).

I’m a bleeding heart liberal, but even I can see we have a problem. The numbers are too high. This is largely economic migration. And the end result is some Ds will reach their tipping point with this issue and vote R because of that. I don’t want another R in the White House. I certainly don’t want Trump again. I think the Ds need to adjust their immigration plan if they want to win. Even Latinos who are here are annoyed (per recent polls), and the Ds seem ignorant to that data. [/quote]

It’s not just economic migration. The amount to criminals, i.e. ‘bad hombres’, crossing the border is astounding. [/quote]
