So when do the Dems say “Build the Wall”
Maybe the first time the Latinos voting for Republicans, keeps them from winning something?
Why, didn’t you know that the Democrats have always been in favor of “comprehensive immigration reform”? Jen Psaki says so, and she wouldn’t lie, would she?
N.B.: “Comprehensive” is Washington-speak for “incomprehensible”, which is why the Democrats want bills to be at least 2000 pages long. Elite rule works a lot better if the people don’t know what their representatives are really voting for.
Actually, the Democratic representatives themselves don’t know what they are really voting for. All they know is, if they don’t vote for the bills, Nancy Pelosi will punish them.
All Pelosi can really do is take away committee assignments etc.
She can also direct campaign funds away from them, and even to a primary challenger, in an extreme case. Also, it’s likely that elements of the liberal media and Twitter mobs will follow her lead and attack whomever she wants to see attacked.
Sure, but it ultimately comes down to their voters. If their voters don’t like them becoming more conservative, then I blame the voters.
You’re assuming that voters have perfect information.
If Nancy discovers that, for example, Latino voters want more conservative candidates, she’ll give them fake conservative candidates; and social media censorship will make sure that the fakery remains little known.
But going along with Pelosi to get her favoritism, would not be an improvement.
