    Wtf is that survey?!

    1* The state of Texas has erected barriers at the U.S.-Mexico border to prevent illegal immigrants from crossing. Do you support or oppose Texas taking action to prevent illegal immigration?

    Who is against illegal immigration unless they already know it’s a conservative euphemism for regular migration?

    2* The U.S. Supreme Court recently ruled against Texas, allowing the Biden administration to remove the barriers that Texas had erected at the U.S.-Mexico border. Do you approve or disapprove of the Supreme Court’s decision?

    3* Do you agree or disagree with this statement about the border dispute between Texas and the federal government: “The feds are staging a civil war, and Texas should stand their ground”?

    Wtf even is this question?

    The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey

    Lol who answers random phone numbers these days except old people. And where was survey conducted online? Stormfront?

    These results are trash because the methodology is trash and not representative of the population at all.

          There you go again, conflating legal immigration with illegal immigration.

              You just said illegal immigration is migration, and migration is legal. Youre conflating. A motte and bailey.

              You are conflating illegal immigration with immigration. The two are not the same.

                  Republicans have always supported legal immigration. Democrats support illegal immigration. It’s not shocking since democrats love lawlessness.

    Gotta love polls. Depending on the questions asked you could get really any result you want.

    Rasmussen = exclusively old people. Talk about a worthless survey.

    Meanwhile, discounting seniors watching Fox News, everyone else is watching the GOP kill a bi-partisan bill meant to actually fix the problem. Why? Because the House of Insurrectionists hasn’t the spine to stand up to cult-leader Trump. Trump sees immigration as the only thing he can flog as an election issue, given the economy, inflation, jobs, gas prices, wage increase, etc. are all doing great. If legislators address immigration, he can’t do his “build the wall” chant.
