Re: “The most important thing to the establishment is keeping the Cheap Labor Express running.”
The Establishment has already won.
Trump and Clinton both support massive LEGAL immigration, currently running about 1.25 million per year.
And that’s just half the story.
A huge majority of Democrat voters, and a solid majority of Republican voters, also support massive LEGAL immigration.
Most LEGAL immigrants have limited skills and limited education, and 80% of new immigrant citizens vote for the Democrat Party.
But for some reason I will never understand, a majority of grassroots Republican voters are still shouting, “More, More, More!”
I don’t think it Republicans support massive legal immigration. Usually, I suspect, they say this to preempt a common anti-immigrant meme. Personally, I would stop all immigration, kick 10 or 100 illegal aliens out for every new legal immigrant. And, disallow any immigration from worst offending countries, like Mexico.
I do not know one damn person who wants more foreigners here let alone those here illegally, All these folks from India are not computer types. Look at the ones who own convenience stores.
