<<"Heard today - Ezra Klein pod (recommended) - of voters making less than $50k, a majority voted for Trump. They KNEW what they were voting for. Tax cuts for the rich, deportations, tariffs. None of this was a secret.”>>

“Would you be so kind to explain to us how people making 50K benefit from open borders?”

Good point. They don’t. Though, as you know, the Biden admin had pretty much put a stop to “uncontrolled” boarder crossings, after the nixing of the bipartisan bill by Trump. Now I agree they SHOULD have done it far, far sooner. And you might not trust another Dem admin to not open it up again.

We do need immigration, though, right? We need folks to paint the houses, mow the grass*, pick the crops.

* BTW my grass cutter for 15 years is a white guy and his wife. We had to insist they raise their rate. They work April-October, make 6 figures, and take the winter off, camping in their huge travel trailer in the south somewhere. They have a pretty good thing going.
