"Isn’t the beating heart of this problem, the real beating heart of it, of what we got to get sorted out here, is not illegal immigration, as horrific as that is and it’s horrific, don’t we have a problem and we’ve looked the other way on this legal immigration..." -- Bannon
- leereeves 10y agoCompleting the quote: "... and how it’s overwhelmed the country? When you look and it’s got 61 million, 20 percent of the country is immigrants. Is that not a massive problem?" I don't know about those numbers, they seem to come from a right-wing think-tank called the Center for Immigration Studies [1], but wasn't Bannon claiming that there are too many immigrants? Which wouldn't be the same as wanting to stop all immigration. 1: http://cis.org/61-Million-Immigrants-and-Their-Young-Children-Now-Live-in-the-United-States http://cis.org/61-Million-Immigrants-and-Their-Young-Childre...
