Hysteria on the left at graphic term used to describe places they think are too awful to deport people to
NY Times:
As I have pointed out there are high functioning people in some of these miserable places. Mia Love and Whitney Mercilus are both talented people with origins from Haiti. There have been many successful Nigerians who come from a country that is more famous for con men. All of these people would be accepted in a colorblind merit-based immigration system.
But I have come to believe the Democrats do not want a deal. They would prefer to demagogue and call people racists. They have cheapened that term to where it is nearly meaningless with their bogus charges.
Too often the media is focused on the noise surrounding President Trump and assumes the worse rather than taking a fair approach. If they are taking their cues from a partisan like Dick Durbin, they are making a mistake.
I think most of the hysteria on the left is for show. Sen. Booker appeared as if he needed counseling after hearing the term allegedly used. What they are trying to hide by the hysteria is the awfulness of their own immigration policy that appears to be the opposite of a colorblind merit-based policy. I get the feeling the Democrats would prefer uneducated low functioning people they could trick into voting for Democrats rather than high functioning intelligent people who could contribute to society.Trump’s Vulgarity: Hole? House? Does It Make a Difference?
If the argument over Mr. Trump’s use of an obscenity to describe third world countries seems to amount to a distinction without a difference, neither the White House nor its allies have acknowledged it.
