We can argue about whether or not America has an immigration problem. The core problem is that Democrats didn’t really make an affirmative argument for an overhaul to U.S. immigration policy that might appeal to voters. It’s easy to explain how immigrants benefit from an open door. Other people may favour immigration, but it’s not necessarily an issue they’re willing to vote on. Yet instead of solving this problem, Democrats opted to mostly speak in vague generalities and to avoid concrete questions: What percentage of our society should be foreign born?
