[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe he's learned that a vast number of Democrats think that immigrants are welcome and should come here LEGALLY, but also that those here illegally should not be given access to any services.

There's a whole swath of moderate Dems and I think that's who he's trying to woo. He'd get my vote if he took a more moderate stance on some issues.

I understand how the MAGA wooed so many of the lower income people to their side. It might be hard for DCUM to understand because most here are wealthy and well-off, but as a true middle class person with an average middle-class job & salary as a teacher, it can be angering to see how much others with less get for free. We can't afford braces for our kid but all of my students on Medicaid get them for free. We went through a rough patch 2 years ago with lots of unexpected expenses all at once that caused me to reach out to our local food bank. I found out that because we weren't on SNAP, WIC, or on section 8 housing, we had to provide proof of income. When we did, we qualified for 3 meals for each person in our household. Not 3 days of meals, but 3 meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner) for 1 day. It was so disheartening. "If you or your husband weren't working, you'd qualify for more." That's what I was told. Even in school, the ESOL kids get so many services and so much aid that middle class kids do not get access to. [/quote]

OP will not understand this at all. Most of DCUMs rich, out of touch liberals won’t. But of course you are right. [/quote]
