The immigrants in the country are paying the price for Trump to build his citizen army that he can dog whistle to attack the capitol, the polls, the streets. And why did he pick these people to be his militia? Not because he cares a flying fuck for them but because he knows as we all know now that they were ripe for the picking. For a variety reasons - poor, uninterested in the truth, unwillingness to read beyond headlines, bored with life, tired of being incapable of paying bills, need somebody to blame for their station in life. Was he smart enough to pick immigrants to be the sacrifial lambs. I don't think so. Who is sacrificing him?
"Citizen" army? Lets rethink that part. These folks need therapy for being raised through obedience training, like dogs. They all need to be approached and offered reconciliation and support. Refusal risks deportation, although many are already incarcerated. We need a massive movement to stop obedience training.
💯...Political consultants have given the Democrat Party nothing over the past 30 years (including the Obama elections)...The only thing gained has been consistent political failure, outside of Obama who took the consultants and the establishment and forced them into reason
Now this makes sense. ...that coukd be why it may never get traction in our country, the country that used to revere The Statue of Liberty, welcoming immigrants. Some of my family rode by her as they entered our beautiful country.
Bravo, Mike! You say so clearly much of what has bothered me for so long about today’s Democratic Party. And what is true of immigration and the needed strangers among us is also true of other bedrock principles of this once great republic.

Thanks, Mike, for writing this!
