He continued, “If you’re wondering America, here’s the Democrats plan. Take the thirteen million plus illegals, who are here taking jobs from Americans, taking wages down, taking healthcare benefits, and bring them here legally so that they can continue to drive down wages, flood the labor force, and suppress all of the above.” “We’ve had an open border for the last four years. We have had de facto amnesty […] for the last fifteen plus years. It has been a disaster, people have died because of it, wages are lower because of it, our streets are in chaos because of it, and now you and the Democrat party say ‘more of the same, more of the same, let’s double down.’ […] I think that is insanity, it is total insanity and the American people do too,” he concluded. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:07:19Z |
