The last paragraph quoting Rep. Tim Huelskamp hits the nail on the head. The big Republican donors got their cheap labor.
“The biggest donors to the Republican establishment, they all are happy today. They got their amnesty,” Huelskamp said. “They just hope the issue goes away and somehow they think conservatives are still going to show up and vote for whoever the presidential nominee is.”
I can almost guarantee that conservatives will not show up and vote for whoever the Republican nominee is because we don’t see a difference between what I call “Republican elite” and Democrats.
I became a Republican in 1980 and voted for Reagan because as he said, “I didn’t leave the Democratic Party. The party left me.” That’s how I felt and couldn’t believe a man who was suppose to be intelligent, Jimmy Carter, could be so stupid with high inflation and unemployment. I was very young. Now I’m feeling the same way about the Republican Party.
I always felt voting for the Republican presidential candidate was the right thing to do even though I wasn’t always enamored with the candidate. This is the first time I won’t feel guilty about not voting for the Republican candidate because a message needs to be sent to the Republican elite. If Scott Walker is the nominee, I will vote; definitely not Jeb Bush. At this point, I’m unsure anyone else could get me to the booth; but I would look at Ben Carson.
