. Instead of deporting people like crazy and shifting rightward, Democrats need to make the case for why immigration is good for the country, because it is.
but progressives are incapable of this, because of their typical "all or nothing" approach. it's also not true
i don't know who needs to hear this, but if AI is approaching like they say it is: we don't need to be importing masses of low skilled workers

there will be too many low-skilled americans already here
and it's not like the left is honest about any of the drawbacks. uninsured drivers, clogging up ER's for unpaid for healthcare, crowded public schools. organized scamming, like in minneapolis
let us know when Dems perfect selling their message to americans who vote. i'm not sure why Dems need to "run on immigration" before then
