• MEDIA: Establishment Media Admit Public Opposition to Migration

    From John D Groenveld@21:1/5 to All on Tue Feb 21 12:26:04 2023
    Via Breitbart Immigration, Breitbart.COM/immigration, see Neil Munro
    on whether Susie Wiles see signs in Brad Parscale and Bill Stepien's
    internal polling that Ron DeSantis could outflank Donald Trump from
    the right on the National Question merely by calling for an immigration moratorium, assuming Ken Griffin and Lachlan Murdoch would let him: <URL:https://www.breitbart.com/immigration/2023/02/15/establishment-media-admit-public-opposition-migration/>
    | Public opposition is rising amid the GOP's zig-zag response to donor
    | pressure, and its reluctance to recognize the pocketbook damage of
    | migration.
    |
    | House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, for example, recently zig-zagged
    | between the demands for more cheap farmworkers by his farm-district
    | employers, and the GOP voters' rising opposition to legal and
    | illegal migration.
    |
    | "The first [thing] has to be done, you have to secure the border
    | before you have any immigration reform," he told the World Ag Expo
    | on February 14, according to The Fresno Bee:
    |
    | What's happened in this administration by opening up our borders
    || has broken down society ... America is the most giving when it comes
    || to immigration, more than a million people a year become American
    || citizens, and we want to continue that because that's how all of us
    || got here.
    |
    | Rep. John Duarte (R-CA) also zig-zagged between voters and donors,
    | employees and employers, in a conversation with the newspaper:
    |
    || We need a [low-wage] guest worker program immediately. We need a
    || legal presence for [illegal migrant] people who are already here and
    || who are already productive members of our communities ... And our
    || communities need these people to come out of the shadows and lead a
    || mainstream [life]. So these are priorities for me .... [First] we
    || secure the border. That's the conversation starter. And then I think
    || there is an appetite to get real reform and solve some of these long
    || term problems.

    Does Trump regret taking Jared Kushner's advice to downplay the National Question on the campaign stump against Joe Biden and Kamala Harris?
