Previously, Republicans in thrall to Wall Street, were as much open border advocates as Democrats. See also Tories and CDU. Trump broke their power within the party. Democrats need someone to break the power of The Groups and not just on immigration.
There is another perspective for these vexing issues - that policies regarding open borders, decriminalization of crime, support of homelessness, DEI, fentanyl, and the transing of children are meant to promote social disorder. Seriously, if you were tasked to shred social cohesion what would you do differently?
Dems should listen to the author. Assuming the West is still the West in a century, mass migration will be second only to slavery, in lousy public policy. All over the West, citizens living with the ramifications have been screaming for relief, as Progressives stuff ever more migrants down their throats. All without adequate housing, healthcare and speciality teachers as they seek to Arabnize the West.
The term has nothing to do with ethnicity, but rather the notion a small subset of people should be waited on by armies of round the clock servants. In Dubai for my husband's job, more than 2 decades ago, we were amazed at the gleaming city rising out of of the sand. We were even more amazed to find we were obviously visiting a modern day Plantation, and no one seemed to care.
Many wealthy Arab nations have tiny populations of actual citizens, surround by legions of imported "workers". For a family of 3, our hotel room had a butler, multiple maids and someone devoted to our food needs, because picking up the phone to order room service, calling the concierge for dinner reservations or actually opening the minibar was, evidently, a bridge too far for some. I declined the offer of a round the clock nannies.
Over the course of a week, our butler patiently waited by the elevator to ensure I never needed to carry my own packages or open our hotel room door. He seemed genuinely perplexed when I explained I could draw my own bath and add the bath oil, all on my own.
The situation that really drove home the Twilight Zone existence, was a young Bedouin on the beach, with a camel. 15 or 16 years old, he spoke broken English, and as he gave my son a camel ride, I asked if camels were kept in stables like horses, and did he live nearby? He explained he and the camel lived on the beach, down the way with a few others, who also gave tourists rides. A fountain, several blocks away provided water. No mention of restroom facilities, in the shadow of our hotel, where I could have comfortably hosted cocktails for 12 people in our bathroom. He explained he would stay for a year or two, before a brother would take his place. Dubai can be 120 degrees+ in the summer.
People usually react to Arabnizing in one of 2 ways. This is a greatest idea since sliced bread or this a very, very, very bad way to operate a society. Guess the breakdown by political party? The Washington Post, or one of its' ilk, recently ran a piece on the plight of a DC power couple, whose $400K kitchen remodel was heartbreakingly on hold, due to a lack of migrant labor. This as Nazi Reps caused nannies, all over the neighborhood, to flee with no notice to their employers! Oh the horror.
If Dems do not wake up and have a come to Jesus immigration moment, the best they can hope for is to exist as a cartoon party. All over the West, citizens have reached their boiling point. The statistics are abysmal, across the board. Mass migration works for no one but exploitive employers, criminal migrants or those seeking only generous welfare states, and political parties hoping to import future voters. In the US, are obviously meant to prop up sagging Blue State populations for apportionment. Nowhere on the list are average citizens found. If mass migration is the hill on which Dems wish to die, voters will likely comply.
Since almost all of the major cities in the US are run by Democrats that is the perfect place to improve public safety now. The next step would be convincing a Democrat governor with a Democrat legislation to commit to increasing public safety now. What if just one mayor and one governor committed to aligning with the voters priority for greater safety? It would be a game changer for the party.
Both sides need to be more concerned in proposing policy that runs the country better, not just positioning to gain or regain power.
I understand, you need to be in power to really do anything, but just winning for winning's sake then losing the next go-round because your policies failed is how we got here as a country.
