Poisoning the blood of our country

The old slippery slope fallacy.

Face it. The article does not support your argument.

I said “Because they plan on giving them the right to vote.”
I think that’s the plan. I didn’t say there was a group working on it or a specific program in the works I think that’s the plan.
The article shows that in some cases undocumented immigrants are being given the right to vote

No, it is not. I am on the "left". I do not support giving illegal aliens the vote. No one I know supports it. There is no one agitating for it. It is not a thing.

You edited your post before I could respond

On March 14, Washington, D.C., became the latest city to approve noncitizen voting, when a bill allowing the District’s roughly 42,000 noncitizens, including those who are undocumented, to vote in municipal elections became law after a bid by congressional Republicans to overturn it fell short.

I didn't know this.

Undocumented/illegal

No, asylum seekers are not illegal.

The second is concern about diluting American concepts of government and liberty by not being raised here. Except the most patriotic Americans I've met were naturalized citizens.

That plus the guy saying these things also having a history of a violent attempt to overthrow the results of an election.

So? Non-citizens have been able to vote in this country in various cities for years.

Accusations is not evidence, especially when coming from today's republican party.


"This is the smoking gun that proves what we've been saying all along, that the city intends to register noncitizens to vote, and even those who are residing in these migrant shelters for just 30 days," Malliotakis said at a press conference in Staten Island. "It is extremely concerning. It should be concerning to every citizen."

I think it would behoove Americans to stop listening to this guy altogether. I mean when is enough actually enough already? Media could assist our society and help focus on our issues as a nation. Let the Trump family focus on their own problems and leave us out of it.

I sometimes wonder if Trump thinks if we stopped listening to him, he'd disappear in a puff of irrelevance.

-- A2SG, hmm, I may be on to something here...

“in Staten Island”

yeah, that tracks

According to his advisors, Mr Trump is terrified his base will abandon him. You are likely on to something .

It's symbolic language that is describing the very negative effects that massive illegal immigration is having upon our nation.

“Locker room talk”?

And Colorado may have just handed him the presidency

Symbolic language, also used by Hitler.

There you go again with the Hitler comparisons. This liberal talking point is old and ridiculous.

 

[Vambram]

Sorry, but I can't help but notice that you stopped responding to this after getting pointed out that the guy who "we" supposedly misinterpreted was himself quite specific afterwards, that no, he meant exactly what we thought he meant.

Shall I take this as you conceding the point and admit that he did in fact refer to illegal immigrants poisoning the blood of the country?

Nope. I ain't conceding that point at all.

 

[Belk]

And Colorado may have just handed him the presidency

Pffttt.. No. This might give him a small bump but I don't think many people in the middle are going to be swayed by it.

The swastika is also symbolic.

Yeah, it's not the fault of the liberals that he takes his allusions from the Führer or that we recognize them for what they are.

 

[Tropical Wilds]

When talking about immigrants and saying they are "Poisoning the blood of our country"
What does that mean?

All I can think of it meaning is that the speaker is worried about ethnicity becoming mixed, like mixed blood. As in, people of certain ethnicities, their blood is poison or bad and degrades the overall gene pool.

I'd like to think that this isn't an overtly racist troupe though, but I am struggling to think of a better explanation as to what is meant by "Poisoning the blood of our country"


Can someone help me out here. What is a positive and less racist way to interpret this?

No, because it’s blatant racism.

The third is concern about illegal immigration. We're not supposed to call it illegal immigration these days, but if someone comes to this country illegally, ignoring that doesn't make it legal. Illegal entry raises the concern of the second issue, and it does show a willingness not to adhere to the law by not becoming an American through proper channels. The go-to-objection to the third concern are those looking for some sort of asylum and are not convinced it will be granted through legal channels. I doubt that's always the case simply by those illegal immigrants who decided to return. Either that, or they looked at things first hand and decided it was no different than what they left. That's a possibility, too.

But how do we connect that to "poisoning the blood". The USA right already have a bad perception of being racists don't they? Wouldn't you think a person intelligent enough to lead the country would seek to avoid using terms that invoke racist ideas?
Trump has a history of wanting to prevent Mexicans and Muslims entering the country, He supposedly asked why people from $--thole countries are coming in, and not people from Norway. Now he says "They are poisoning the blood of the country"
Is Stephen Miller writing this material for him, or does this stuff come naturally to his mind?
