The entire immigration argument is racist and based on Trump's "Mexican rapists" diatribe from 2015, which he doubled down on this year.
No one remembers that Reagan signed an immigration law that gave 10 million immigrants a path to citizenship.
"Illegal immigration" is never about drugs or crime. It's about brown people "invading" our "white" country. Read anything about Stephen Miller's thoughts and you'll understand he literally wants to "reverse" the trend of minority "growth" in our country ... at ANY cost.
We are a nation of immigrants and undocumented workers have a massive positive impact on our economy. This is a fact.
People come to our country because of what we sell, which is the "land of opportunity" and ruled by laws. And the second someone crosses the border and says, "I'm seeking asylum," they are no longer "illegal". They are simply undocumented.
So, I have serious doubts about anyone saying they're against immigrants and that it's coming from a racist (even minimally) perspective. Racism is a core tenant of Nazism and Fascism.

Racism is a core tenant of Nazism and Fascism. Once again, I have to point out that you're equivocating "Racist" and "Nazi". If you're going to use the term "Nazi" for all racists, what word do you propose to use for the genocidal, gas-chamber-loving actual Nazis?
