Hurd on immigration:One that stands out is immigration.
Another is in what he says here:
“I wanted to show solidarity with Black America. I wanted to explain it was okay to be simultaneously outraged by a Black man being murdered in police custody, thankful that law enforcement puts themselves in harm’s way to enable our First Amendment rights, and pissed off that criminals are treading on American values by looting and killing police officers,”
That you CAN support all of that, it doesn’t HAVE to be just one against tbe other.
Why wouldn’t they want Hurd’s input? Simple. Because they knew he wasn’t going to tell them what they wanted to hear. They knew Hurd would offer a set of solutions—the mass streamlining of legal immigration for both high-skilled workers and low-skilled laborers; the construction of a cutting-edge “virtual wall” utilizing cameras and fiber-optic cables to monitor illegal crossings; the granting of citizenship to millions of “Dreamers”; the surge of funding to local agencies dealing with a mass influx of asylum seekers—that would antagonize the loudest voices in both party bases.
how flexible is Hurd - or you for that matter - on immigration?
meaning how much of trump’s position on immigration will Hurdists compromise on?
the Dreamers for instance
why do they deserve citizenship when they came here illegally?
indeed why does any person here illegally deserve the gift of citizenship?
