Democratic Senator Explains That ‘Undocumented Americans’ Are the People His Party ‘Care About Most’
https://www.mediaite.com ^ | Feb 8, 2024

Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) declared that “undocumented Americans” — presumably a reference to migrants in the country illegally — were “the people we [Democrats] care about most” in an appearance on All In With Chris Hayes Wednesday night.

In a discussion about the now-defunct border and foreign aid bill rejected by congressional Republicans, Hayes teed Murphy up by noting that in his 20 years of covering the issue of illegal immigration, the trade that is typically made gives Republicans more border security and Democrats a pathway to citizenship.

“This time around, the negotiation didn’t have a path to citizenship. It was entirely on their [Republicans’] terms in order to get Ukraine funding, right?” asked Hayes.

“Well, I mean, Chris, that’s been a failed play for 20 years. So you are right that that has been the Democratic strategy for 30 years, maybe, and it has failed to deliver for the people we care about most, the undocumented Americans that are in this country,” replied Murphy. “This is also not 2013 any longer. When we ran that play last back then, there were a couple hundred people showing up every day applying for asylum. Today, on some days, there are 8,000. And the reality is, is that the bulk of this country does not think that that’s right or sustainable and wants us to change the reality at the border.” …

You would like to think black and Hispanic DEMs would be upset about this, enough to either switch their votes or not vote at all. But no ...

And it hasn't worked to secure our border one iota.

At least this guy is openly telling Americans to go take a hike, he doesn't give a hoot about us. What I don't get is that when politicians like this say they care more about citizens of other countries than Americans, why do they still get votes?

The Democrat Party needs their votes. The Democrat Party cares nothing for these invaders nor America.

They are very delusional.

"So you are right that that has been the Democratic strategy for 30 years, maybe, and it has failed to deliver for the people we care about most, the undocumented Americans that are in this country,”

The campaign commercial writes itself, if the RNC had balls.

"From the mouth of a leading Democrat. You in the inner cities, you in rural America, you who pay the taxes....Democrats have no use for you. But they will foster an invasion, and give the invaders YOUR jobs, your homes, and your livelihoods for one thing--their own power"

There is no such thing as *undocumented Americans*.

They are not Americans. They are illegal invaders and no, the democrats do NOT care about them as is obvious from the way they are being treated in the blue cities they are in.

All the democrats are interested in is power and using these people to achieve it.

Typical. Reminds me of an old song.
Goes: “1 for you, 10 for me”.

The usual results of Republican leadership negotiations with Democrats.

This isn’t some kind of football game as this twit so sickeningly portrays our dire situation. We’re gonna get a new President and we’re gonna track these people down and deport them.

That’s because the RINOpublican party never does anything about it.

If they’re not documented, how are they American?
Weaselwords, twisting of terms to make us accept them. A sophomoric attempt at brainwashing.

The only thing the D.C. Mafia Democrats care about is money and power. Period!

Sometimes the truth slips out.
