Republicans Really Do Love Immigrants

I was going to write a column today about why President Trump is on his way to re-election by a wide margin. I was ready for liberals to scoff at my prediction. 

Then, suddenly days ago, Politico- the DC web site devoted to politics- featured a shocking headline, “How Trump is on track for a 2020 landslide.”

Politico reports despite Trump’s supposedly low approval numbers, if the election were held today, multiple economic models with flawless track records of predicting presidential election results, show Trump would win in a huge landslide.

Next, out of the blue, former Pennsylvania Governor and former Chairman of the Democrat National Committee Ed Rendell told CNN, “I think all of a sudden, the 2020 election went from a slam dunk for Democrats to something where we’re going to have trouble beating this guy…”

It’s beginning to dawn on Democrats. President Trump is going to win re-election. But why?

It can all be summed up by two stark immigration stories- illegal immigration versus Alex Sajdak, a legal immigrant who did it the right way.

Republicans and conservatives- despite the lies, slander and fake news offered by the liberal media- value and celebrate immigration. But only if it’s done right. Only if the immigrants come here legally, if they work hard to become American citizens, if they come here to work, not seek out welfare. 

I was honored this past Friday morning to be invited to the U.S. citizenship ceremony for Alex Sajdak, at the Federal Courthouse Building in downtown Las Vegas. It was my first-ever citizenship ceremony.
