In reply to the discussion: Sanders breaks with Democrats, praises Trump's border policy on podcast [View all]B.See
(7,196 posts)35. The question is, did you read my response, because
I not only listened to the podcast but saw the transcript, and aside from a glancing comment made by Bernie re the need for immigration reform, there really wasn't a satisfactory enough (imo) calling out of Republican efforts to stymie immigration reform or of the blatant hypocrisy of an immigration policy that makes exceptions for S. Afrikaners and those of "European ancestry" who embrace certain... "VALUES."
Thanks for asking, though.
