Have we become used to/accepting of Open Borders?

The opposite is true. Yes, the Dems are stubbornly refusing to do anything about it but even NYC mayor is starting to whine about immigrants.

You know the old saying... You can vote communism in but you can't vote it out

I don’t know if regular Americans have accepted so much as a level of recognition that there’s little we can do about it ourselves.

Trump to his credit was the first politician who actually tried to DO something.

Most politicians left and right paid lip service during election campaigns but don’t really do anything except moves to grant amnesty every few years (and that shite goes all the way back to Reagan who was my personal favorite president but that was a horrible move on his part that’s had permanent consequences.)

Dems want the additional voters/super-majority and most traditional GOP types want and don’t see/care beyond the cheap labor.

Here in Trinidad, we are 7 miles from Venezuela, the change in our demographics over the past 10 years has been astounding.

But its like the Ellis Island years of the US. We dont have all these friggin handouts you have in the states so the people come and they work. And they will work. And many are skilled.

Ironic the number of times I have heard in a conversation that someone needs something done and the next person will say "Get you a couple of Spaniards (its what Trinidadians denote as Venezuelans), and not in a negative sense. They are hard working and you can find one skilled in most anything you need.

What immigration was intended for versus what it has become in the states is a disgrace. Particularly the fact that the current adm lets in anyone....except Cubans and Venezuelans are always scrutinized because they dont want people who truly seek freedom.

nope, trump should completely shut down and close the border for his entire term and deport as many as they can, that might be a way to get it to a workable level.

there will be 15-30 million new illegals in this country by 24 election time. the dems will be voting for them so trump must get 40 million more votes than the potato. it wont be easy, but he is the ONLY one who can do it if it can be done.

What proof of that do you have?

Or are you just making shite up in your head?

Going back to the 1965 Act, the left has been completely gung-ho in diluting the voting power of white conservative cultura by flooding the country with third-world minorities who weren't teethed on our Constitutional values and more apt to take a subservient perspective towards big federal government. What was the real killer was when the pseudo-conservative/libertarian faction in the 1990s started to expound on the notion that America was really just a 'state of mind,' and defined more as a kind of borderless 'enterprise zone' adhering to nothing more than free market principles.

The combined result is really what we have now. There's really no longer any sense of shared culture, shared heritage, shared values. In essence, we're really no longer a country, as such a thing would have been defined throughout human history. Just an open land-mass, full of disparate people. Like a seedy bus-stop, with all sorts of people mulling about, coming and going. It has ripped away any compulsion to be loyal, to be patriotic. America is like a hollow shadow of a country at this point. When they started tearing down statues, I knew the end-game was just about here. The current, insane flood of illegals swamping the land isn't so much an instigator of our downfall, but more like a post-facto influx of maggots swarming in to feast off of dead flesh.

We have become too used to the corruption that has resulted in open borders.
