Can you imagine?

No one has explained why open borders are smart?
Im willing to bet he's declaring a state of emergency and using his executive powers to implement border security.
I think it's about time.
Let ALL those who pass the criteria for entry in and embrace them fully just like we did from 1892 to 1954 when Ellis Island was open.
We embraced ALL refugees then. Let's do it again!

@Jocco I screwed up and 'muted' you instead of 'blocking' you. Thought I'd not be seeing your posts
But as I did I'd REALLY appreciate it if you could do one small thing.
Send me a QUOTE,from a legitimate news source, of ANY federal lawmaker calling for an open border.
So you know, "quotes" means that person actually said something verbatim. On the record. A "legitimate news source" means they're reporting and not opining. OK?
Just one. That's all I need. Should be easy.
Now if you can do that I guess you'd have a valid position.
But if you CAN'T then you need to ask yourself why you would believe, and repeat, total bullshit.
I'll check back when I can. Don't punk out, ok? Thanks.

@Ynotisay Mute, block......it's probably easier for you....
But, I accept your challenge.
From the National Review:
Long before #AbolishICE became a rallying cry for the party’s socialist wing, Democratic bigwigs have been saying that no illegal alien should ever be sent home merely because he snuck into the country or overstayed a visa. Nancy Pelosi in 2013 put it very clearly: “If somebody is here without sufficient documentation, that is not reason for deportation.” Hillary Clinton said much the same during one of the 2016 primary debates: “Of the people, the undocumented people living in our country, I do not want to see them deported.” Likewise with Bernie Sanders, at the same debate; in response to Jorge Ramos’s question, “And can you promise not to deport immigrants who don’t have a criminal record?” Sanders answered, “I can make that promise.”
If you will an end, you must will the means to that end. The Democrats have demonstrated that there are no means to achieve the goal of controlled immigration that they are willing to support — not border control to keep unauthorized people from barging in, and not deportation of those who manage to get past the notional borders. For a pedant, that may not qualify as “open borders,” in the sense that national frontiers would be completely unmonitored, merely jurisdictional markers showing who picks up the garbage on which side of the line. But it’s good enough for government work.
From The Hill:
In a recent interview, Ellison (Democratic National Committee deputy chairman and congressman Keith Ellison) suggested that because corporations “can go back and forth across the border seeking out the lowest wages,” regular people should be able to “go back and forth across the border seeking out the highest wages.” Not only is this statement in itself completely detached from reality, but it seems to suggest that if we cannot have wide open borders, then we must not have free trade at all. These remarks come just weeks after Ellison wore a shirt that read “yo no creo en fronteras,” which in English translates into “I do not believe in borders.”

But everyone is now DEAD SET that if someone disagrees, they should be .... well......dead.
Just watch TV
