If there was one message Trump’s voters sent loud and clear in 2024, it’s that they wanted the US to let in millions of rich foreigners and give them citizenship. https://t.co/dhf9UnjgpD

The battle against illegal immigration isn’t close to being won–the declines at the border may be temporary (has happened before) and zero legislation has been passed–and already Trump’s implementing a rich man’s scheme to sluice in millions (he says) of other rich people. https://t.co/dhf9UnjgpD

It’s Donilon’s fault! Something unseemly, weak and self-serving in what seems to be the new line blaming Biden and his handlers for what’s at least in large part the result of Democrats’ reckless and misguided policies. https://t.co/iqBBwv65EX

Respectable policy types campaigned against teen pregnancy, arguing it would produce better social outcomes. They won. And now it turns out it contibuted to the birth decline! So? They were still right, I suspect. (I’m not a natalist. Birth rates seem like a 2d-order concern.) https://t.co/oomnHKeS2o

It would be cheap to note that these are the people who fill Trump’s hotel rooms. That’s not a critique–he knows them and likes them. But it’s a leap to say they should all be permanent American citizens. https://t.co/B0BQf8UyzJ

If you are can cure cancer and think you’re better than average Americans, OK, maybe you are, come on in! But there aren’t 10 million of those people, and the 250,000 in line for EB-5 visas aren’t them.

Second thought: Letting rich people buy green cards and a “route to citizenship” seems a direct violation of social equality–money exercising power “outside its sphere,” as Michael Walzer might say. Like letting them buy their way out of speeding laws https://t.co/3hPb50b6S2
