But a new report from an influential liberal think tank, provided to The Daily Beast, posits that the partys decision to cede the rule of law ground to Republicans creates the false dichotomy of America as either a nation of immigrants or a nation of lawsmaking the party and its candidates appear soft on enforcement, and potentially weakening future attempts for humanitarian-focused immigration reform.
In doing so, writes Tom Jawetz, vice president of immigration policy at the Center for American Progress, supporters of humane immigration policy have ceded powerful rhetorical ground to immigration restrictionists, who are happy to masquerade as the sole defenders of America as a nation of laws.
Calls for nationwide amnesty and the abolition of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the report counters, only fuels louder calls for maximum enforcement, which then strengthen calls for abolition, ad infinitum. Only by building a workable and human immigration system, Jawetz writes, can Democrats break the cycle of extremes.

Yep...
Legals hate illegals..
The people in the elite Area do not have to worry about illegals..
But working people do..lower wages or no job at all...
A lot of companies hire nothing be illegals...Construction...Landscaping..
Legal companies cannot compete
They passed "soft on enforcement" long ago. They are now in full-blown "no more borders" mode.
Translation: “The truth is leaking out to the American people. Do something!”
So that is why all of a sudden the big time Democrats are visiting the border. I’m sure they will find a way to blame Pres. Trump for the problems that Congress has created for 30 years.
Aw, dayum...don’t TELL them!!!
Calls for nationwide amnesty
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Also coming from some people wearing R jerseys.
Flimsey Grahamnesty is STILL working on the amnesty he’s been trying to pass since 2006.
4D Chess.
If immigration brings us “diversity” like Omar, shut it down.
Find something to replace it, or we're all going to hang from nooses.
“soft on enforcement”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That has been the policy of BOTH parties for the last FOUR Presidents, two of each party (well, three and an usurper)
They say that like somehow the Left is not saying what they mean. They are saying EXACTLY what they mean. And, the American people are not buying it.
School kids could write Mr. Trump’s campaign strategy......
Dems are good for nothing but socialism and open borders, led by mouthy, race-baiting, America haters.
Hey Dems, you could easily wake up to a totally R congress and 4 more years of Mr. Trump.
+++++
LOL. The reason Democrats appear to be soft on enforcement is because they are soft on enforcement. Did Michael Jordan just appear to be one of the greatest basketball players of all time?

Notice how they couch the language here. Their policy is humane. That means that ours is inhumane.
Never cede the language. Its vitally important.
Those who control language control minds. Ayn Rand.

So that’s why Schumer went to the border. Not because of doing what might be in the best interests of the USA, but because of “messaging”.
Top Dem Think Tank Warns Party: Youre Losing Immigration Messaging War to Trump

... and WHAT part of “open the borders and let a bunch of criminal, drug-pushing, murderous invaders into our country, oh, and, yes, we’ll pay for them AND they’ll take your jobs, too” don’t they see as a winning “message”?
That’s what I thought as well.
“masquerade”
uh, yeah, masquerade ... all the major candidates and the jihad squad have explicitly called for things lie abolishing ICE, abolishing DSH, tearing down existing walls, making illegal immigration legal, free everything for illegal aliesn, etc.
“Translation: The truth is leaking out to the American people. Do something!”
i.e., go back to lying about your agenda like in the olden days ...
