Chuck Schumer, head of the Democratic Party in the Senate, rails against illegal immigration. in 2009. So did other Democratic luminaries: Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton. All said the same thing then that Donald Trump does now.
So, yeah. Democrats support control of illegal immigration. Then. Today, they support illegal immigration. Because… Trump. And… because illegal immigrants are a new voter base for Democcrats.
The only difference, the only one, is that then was them, and now is Orange Man Bad. It was a matter of national security then, which they now ignore because they hate the man saying it.
Imagine that your deeply held values are so lightly held that they evanescence when the person voicing it is someone you don’t like.
That is the crassest hypocrisy. That is enraging national security because of personality. It’s horrid.

2009. Chuck Schumer gives one of the strongest speeches against illegal immigration ever given by a politician, from either side of the aisle.
This speech is mind-blowing. Hearing Schumer now insult ICE and Border Patrol and advocate for illegal immigrants, it's hard to believe that this video is real but it is.
Virtually every word of his 30 minute speech was about the need to curb illegal immigration. Schumer hit on everything from border security to biometric verification systems.
Schumer was not alone back then. Obama, Biden, and Hillary all took similar stances against illegal immigration during their campaigns for the 2008 Presidential election.
The Democrat party has moved so far left on immigration that by 2021, a Democrat President had effectively opened the border and ended deportations. The party just keeps moving further left on immigration. Democrat politicians now regularly incite violence against ICE by calling them nazis and gestapo.
