The notion of bumpkins who are against illegal immigration is severe and disgusting. It is simply not arguable to say that you have to have completely open borders. And it’s not logical to say that we haven’t helped huge portion of the world’s displaced people.

We have 5 percent of the world’s population and have taken in 20 percent of the world’s displaced.

Are Democrats sponsoring illegal immigration because it’s deep in their hearts or because of the votes? The answer is pretty obvious.

Sixty-two percent of the American people disagree with sanctuary city behavior. At the heart of the immigration issue is not racism but fairness. And there is such a thing as a Western view of civilization.

The American people smell a scam and they are wondering why we let so many people into the country illegally. But now the Democrats are trying to create 1 million new voters out of these illegal immigrants. If you’re illegal, you shouldn’t be able to vote. It as simple as that. And this is a scam.

As always, please listen to the full audio clip for complete context.
