Just tell Dick her family are Republicans. That’ll shut him up.

America has always embraced immigrants and immigration. We still do! We also embrace the rule of law, which is why many are concerned about illegal immigration. Of course, Chloe Kim and her father have nothing to do with the issue of illegal immigration.

Hey, Dick, this is a story of legal immigrants from a prosperous nation, not a story of illegal immigrants from failed nations and cultures.

Did he crawl across the border in the gloom of night? Or did he get off a plane and go through customs?

I don’t think there is even a small minority of people begrudging someone legal immigration status.

It is the illegals that are a problem.

Little Dick Durbin
Tightened his turban
Opened his mouth to bray.
Along came a Dreamer
Who pooped out a “steamer”
And frightened Dick Durbin away.

Chloe Kim’s story is the story of immigration in America.”

Yep. She came here legally. She followed the law; she became a citizen. She didn't sneak across the border. She didn't lie on her visa application. She didn't steal anybody's identity. She didn't commit various other crimes.

Your precious illegal aliens can't say that, Dickie.

Immigrants and illegals are not the same.

If she was born in Long Beach then what does it have to do with immigration?

Comparing our situation with DACA “kids” and their illegal immigrant parents is comparing apples with elephants.

If I may: it's more like comparing apples with road-apples ...

Why dies Durbin think this is a defense of DACA?

Because there isn’t one Republican that knows the difference.

The Democrats know that. They also know that there are enough idiots out there that don’t distinguish between legal and illegal immigration.

Did he swim the Pacific and sneak onto a beach in the dead of a moonless night, then live here “in the shadows” for 40 year?

I didn’t think so.

Dems LOVE to conflate legal immigration with illegal invaders. They know what they are doing when they lie and they think the rubes will fall for it. Unfortunately, many do fall for it as well as fall for the daily sob story. It is so deceitful for Dems to behave that way, but unsurprising.

Her parents waited in line and arrived here 30 years ago as legal RESIDENT ALIENS. No one has a problem with that,

When the red man walked across the Bering Strait, Al Gore’s “no controlling legal authority” was actually true. I think they arrived legally - there was no ICE to send them back.

Unless it was late Pleistocene ice which would have send any normal person back.
