Fixing this broken, immoral immigration system is one of the main reasons Donald Trump was elected. For the sake of the American people and the continuation of America as a truly unique, sovereign country, there really is no option for him but to succeed.
We’re tolerating ourselves to death. There is no other way to say it, especially when it comes to immigration, specifically anchor babies, chain migration, and refugee resettlement. It’s as though our “leaders” have been fed stupid pills and chased them down with healthy quantities of idiocy.
Take, for example, anchor babies. I’m shorthanding it here a little, so bear with me, but it works a bit like this: let’s allow illegal noncitizens into our country—people who shouldn’t be here, have no right to be here—and let them have their babies on American soil. Voila! We now have new American citizens!
A few here, a few there, and suddenly you have an entire new generation of “American citizens” who were born on the taxpayers’ dime after their parents arrived illegally and. We’re not talking about thousands per year: last year alone, as far as we know, at least 376,000 anchor babies were born in the United States.
Throw into this mix “chain migration,” also known by the Orwellian term “family reunification.” Chain migration, which, like anchor babies, is also legal, allows a naturalized citizen to bring in an unlimited number of relatives into our country. Rasmussen recently found that five out of eight likely swing voters want the practice to end. Even a majority of black and Hispanic voters want to end chain migration.
Not so for Democrats running for president in 2020, or for the party as a whole. Why? It’s their holy grail. They know that 7-8 million immigrants will come in to this country via chain migration over the next 20 years. Statistics show that by a 2-to-1 margin those coming in via chain migration vote for Democrats because they want more government welfare programs.
And guess what? We’re paying for it all. You the taxpayer get to pay for your country to be transformed into something you probably won’t recognize in a generation or two.
