There's a poll out today that puts the recent uproar over separation of some families at the border into proper perspective, and it's not a good look for the Democrat/media complex that has been pushing the story. By about a 20% margin, Americans blame the illegal aliens for the crisis rather than the government. Indeed, only about a third of voters blame the Trump administration as the principal cause of the problem. Imagine that! After endless discussions of how Trump is a Nazi using Nazi tactics to send poor immigrants and children to concentration camps, the American people blame the illegals and not the Trump administration. Remember, there are about a third of the voters who would blame Trump for any ill in the world, and I mean ANY ill in the world. That means that the big onslaught by the media and the Dems on this point hasn't convinced any of the non-core anti-Trumpers that it is the President's fault.
So what have the been the effects of this mess? For one thing, the Democrats have made clear that they care more about the illegal immigrants than the rest of America. Democrats don't do anything or even try to do anything for children inside the USA who are separated from their parent when he or she is incarcerated; that concern only applies for the illegal immigrants. Democrats don't do anything or even try to do anything for homeless veterans or other homeless people on the streets of our cities, particularly ones like Chicago, Philadelphia or Baltimore which have been run by the Democrats for nearly a century. They do run to shelters to check on the rather fine conditions in which the illegals are being held.
Another effect is that the media manufactured "crisis" has taken attention away from nearly everything else. We haven't really heard much of anything about how things are going with North Korea following the Singapore summit. We don't know what Congress is doing with regard to pending appropriations bills. Even the economic news has receded into the mist. It has been non-stop border news about children. America, however, does know that the Democrats say that the problem could be solved by President Trump and that they refused to vote for any bill to fix the situation. Then when Trump acted, the same Democrats said that he didn't have the authority to take action, but they still refuse to vote for any solution. They are blocking action to protect the very illegals who most Americans blame for the crisis. It sounds good in the DC bubble, but the poll says it won't play very well across the country.
This is just one poll, so maybe it's wrong. Still, if this poll is even remotely correct, we are witnessing a massive fail by the left.
