Don’t take my word for it. Oh no.
I’m a Latin former political consultant who worked scores and scores of elections, many times being hired to specifically focus on the Latin vote. After I cashed their checks, I informed my clients that there was no such thing as the Latin vote. Latins are not politically monolithic.
So Dems out there, the half dozen of you who may see this column on a regular basis, please, so we can reelect the president I support, keep criticizing the man for his stance on illegal immigration and more so recently for his proposal to close the southern border and stop aid to Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador.
Is that what you want, more Trump? Because that’s how you get more Trump.
Survey, poll, and research time after time shows the U.S. voting public across the demographic spectrum supports a strong stand on illegal immigration. So you say, isn’t that nice? The Dems standing for principle over political gain.
Well, no.
They need illegal immigration to get the votes, now or in the near future, to topple the ultimate GOP domino: Texas. Once that’s lost there is little chance of the Republicans taking the White House. The Electoral College numbers just aren’t there. Though, it would be delicious schadenfreude if they succeeded in abolishing the Electoral College, as some of them propose, to then lose the popular vote to a GOP nominee. In fact, take away illegal voting in 2016 and just that would have happened.
The president gains points when he builds the wall and stays hardcore on the issue. Cutting off nations from our money if they can’t stop their own citizens from making the trek here to illegally foist themselves upon us is sound policy and sound politics.
Most, including the 44th president’s DHS chief, say the current state of our southern border is nothing short of crisis. But the Dems deify the hordes of mostly young single Central American males who cross the border and help make it so. They will eventually regret it.
So go ahead Bolshies, keep skipping merrily towards electoral disaster. I have more than enough Woodford Reserve on hand to enjoy the show.
