Well, for starters, you don't call anyone who disagrees with you "deplorable".

Stop living up to the insult, then.

Trump hired tons of foreign labor for his resorts while stiffing American workers for those jobs.

The key might be not being tolerant of ILLEGAL immigration. People all over this country are very tolerant of people of different races. “White middle America,” as you call it, are not tolerant of illegal immigrants.

Do you live in the same America as I do?

And, as the child of legal immigrants who grew up right next to one of the areas discussed in that article, I disagree with your assessment that "White middle America" is tolerant of legal immigration of non-whites.

There are great things about the US...and in many ways we are a more tolerant society than most. But there is rampant racism and xenophobia in this country as well. Ask any non-white, wherever they grew up, and they will tell you.

go back to your culture then.

come one, I am tired of immigrants coming here and talking about how good their home culture is. GO home then.

DP. Would you mind please identifying a few of the countries that are more racially tolerant and less xenophobic than the US? Just curious.

"Our review and analysis of the best available evidence indicates that the supply of STEM-potential and STEM-educated students has remained strong and appears to be quite responsive to standard economic signals...The immigration debate is complicated and polarizing, but the implications of the data for enacting high-skill guestworker policy are clear: Immigration policies that facilitate large flows of guestworkers will supply labor at wages that are too low to induce significant increases in supply from the domestic workforce"--Guestworkers in the High-Skill U.S. Labor Market, EPI, 2013

Hillary wanted to triple the H1B limits and wanted to give amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants.

She was NEVER a friend of the working middle class.

I lived in pa. Lived there for forty years. People are very warm. I grew up when Vietnamese were welcomed at ft indiantown gap. All the churches helped place the immigrants

What people don't like is the overwhelming immigration when there're are not enough jobs Is that so hard for educated elites in Bethesda to understand????

Hillary Clinton had a plan to add jobs and it was up on her website - trump said he did but no one has seen it. trump and the Republicans have been in power for 10 months and there is no jobs bill nor immigration bill.

Illegal Immigrants are NOT - nor have ever - taken American jobs. Fruit is rotting on the trees because undocumented seasonal worker are afraid to reenter the US. Illegal Immigrants were just the Republicans ploy to create a boogeyman and it worked. Worked in prewar Germany under Hitler too.

PP to whom you are replying. No. You are the one who is underinformed. For the record, I am extremely well traveled and have lived in a number of places in the US and abroad.

Sure, there are racists--but to say that most Republicans are sympathetic with KKK and racist is just dead wrong. It shows that you live in a bubble if you really think that. And, I ask you again to examine the statistics and see who is committing the most crimes against minorities. (Hint, it's not Republicans--in fact, it's not even the KKK.)

Oh, come on. You're missing the most obvious factor behind that stale GOP "who commits the most crimes against minorities" meme.

Crimes are committed within communities. Blacks commit violence against other blacks in their own community, whites commit violence against other whites in their own community.

You aren't even a master of the obvious. You are way out of your depth here.

KKK = "different political opinion"

Stick your head in the ground, deplorable.
