Substack sucks. Also, what was your answer to the question?

Weird to see you pitching a substack, Steve, a website known to platform and enrich Nazis while you work for NPR. Why aren’t these sections of NPR conducted interviews available on their website and from their newsletters?

“The exchange Fox highlighted gets at a genuine debate in the country at large about how to handle people in the US without legal status. Here’s one question Democrats face: Can they stand for the rule of law while also defending people in the country without legal status?”

The Trump/MAGA strategy to deport undocumented immigrants would take 30 years at the current pace of removals assuming no new entries, but DEMOCRATS need to justify their support for a bipartisan approach that might actually work.

I think part of the problem here also is that this is a huge issue that cannot be settled with sound bytes and interviews. This requires a long conversation with nuance and understanding.
People don't want that.
It needs to be binary: yes/no. Right/wrong.
These are people's lives-it is complicated.

“Democrats would like to manage the issue by legalizing immigrants they view as mostly productive members of society. Republicans take a radically different view. And it’s clear the 2024 election results, that some voters just don’t follow the nuances of Democratic thinking.”

It's a sad state of affairs that the empirical factual statement that "Immigrants create jobs, lower the crime rate and fund Social Security" is now considered "nuance".

They're Moderates, NOT Liberals!

“Some voters see downsides for them in immigration, or respond to conspiracy theories about a ‘great replacement.’ But some don’t think too deeply about this issue, and just respond to the simple proposition that people should follow the law.”

"Some voters see downsides for them in immigration"

Remember the good old days when seeing imaginary things that objectively don't exist PREVENTED someone from ever being taken seriously?
