Re: “So...we should deport my wife of 30+ years?”
The issue is political, Mr. Rogers, not personal.
New immigrant citizens vote 80% for the Democrat Party.
In November 2016, you wrote a “Vanity” about how the voters in California had completely distorted the election.
You forgot to point out that 27% of California residents are foreign born, and that 55% of California residents are Hispanic or Asian.
“The issue is political, Mr. Rogers, not personal. / New immigrant citizens vote 80% for the Democrat Party.”
Then WIN their votes! Do what Trump IS doing: Show them conservative values WORK.
I’m opposed to illegal immigration, but I reject the idea that ALL immigration is evil, or all immigrants are! I reject utterly this comment:
“Not one of these people ever deserved to come to our country...Getting on a jet airplane and simply walking into a place that millions of our people struggled to create is disgusting. They have no right to it.”
I’d like to see a merit-based immigration. I have no problem with immigration of IMMEDIATE family members, with some restrictions. But I am not nor can I ever become “anti-immigrant”. Nor does my own family give anyone cause to be.
“You forgot to point out that 27% of California residents are foreign born, and that 55% of California residents are Hispanic or Asian.”
Just want to add that a huge number of lily-white NBC folks in California are FLAMING LIBERALS! Nor do I harbor any racial hatred for Hispanics or Asians, or assume they are genetically doomed to liberal ideas. Unless, of course, some conservatives treat them like trash and drive them into the arms of the liberals!
If 55% of California legal residents are Hispanic or Asian, then maybe you and others should follow Trump and try to WIN THEIR VOTE!
