We as a country have definitely lost our "the man is trying to keep me down" mentality and have bought into this "we want to welcome you to the club" bullshit the Right has been pushing for years. They dangle an enormous carrot in front of the working class, and then give it to their rich friends and blame it on the Left.
And this idea of deporting immigrants is the same thing, "lets get these people out so we can pay our private contractor friends Billions and blame it on the Left" (and hoping it hurts future Left voters). If you dig though, it's these same shitheads exploiting them (immigrants ) as a labor force doing jobs they have no plan to pay a decent wage for. Trump was famous for doing this in the construction of several of his properties, underpay of don't pay and then threaten them with ICE or lawsuits if they don't go away.
When was this because white America had ZERO issue with the man keeping down everyone who wasn't a WASP.
Agreed, but an awful lot of white males that in the past might have been pro union (that didn't vote in their oppressors) are now full on MAGA while the GOP robs them blind.
