There has almost always been a program in place for citizenship – Democrats want to bypass it

This article is not me trying to have Democrats turn into Republicans. I would like supporters to please research the different policies that the Democrats have been saying and doing.

During the Biden/Harris administration, more than 12 million people crossed the border into the United states illegally. On his first day in office Biden signed an executive order to stop building the wall. Soon after that, he revoked the remain in Mexico plan created by the Trump administration.

Along with 17 executive orders on the first day, this was done for spite against the Trump administration. These actions started the overflow of the immigrants coming into the United states. They did not have to stay in Mexico until their case was reviewed, but rather, they could come into the United States and stay until their case was set for a court date.

One of the reasons Biden gave for ending that program was claiming that there were inhumane conditions and abuse in Mexico. All this did was to create inhumane conditions in the United States. Now all the abuse and inhumane conditions were transferred to us.

This opened the floodgate for the immigrants to cross the border.

Elections

During the election process the Democrats were starting to get a lot of criticism on the sheer number of illegal immigrants coming across the border unchecked. The so-called sanctuary cities and other towns were starting to complain about all the resources it took to handle this influx.

The Democrats would not mention anything about the problems they caused. But rather Harris started preaching about how our immigration policy was broken. It was ironic because they're the ones that caused this problem and our policy for legal migration was in place but being ignored.

This was many of the lies and propaganda that the Democrats started using at this point.

The existing process

For many, many years we've had a process in place for migrants to come in legally. Below are the different points that must be met to get citizenship. In performing each of the steps that needed to be done it could cost the person applying a certain amount of money that could end up being thousands. Right off the start there could be $700 - $800 just for the initial forms and processing.

What a slap in the face for those who went through the correct process that took them years and cost them money to become citizens.

Once you have the registered to stay in the country, the process to be completed is as follows:

Naturalization requirements:

1. You must be 18 years of age or older.

2. You must show that you have been a lawful permanent resident of the United States (informally known as having a green card) for at least five years (or three years if you are married to a United States citizen).

3. You must have continuous residence in the U.S. for at least five years (or three years if you are married to a United States citizen).

4. You must have resided for 3 months in current resident state or USCIS district

5. You must be physically present in the U.S. for at least half that time.

6. You must be a person of “good moral character.” This means not having certain problems with the police or other authorities.

7. You must be able to read, write, and speak basic English.

8. You must have a knowledge and understanding of the fundamentals of U.S. history and government.

9. You must take a loyalty oath and support the Constitution and form of government of the United States.

So the Democrats decided to ignore the process to become a legal citizen. It has always been the Democrats belief that they know the best for America and doesn't care what the citizens want. These are the elite that want to control how we live in America. They believe they know what is best for us, not what the majority want.

Why did they do this?

The Democrats want to have the migrants go into the cities that will benefit them by population for elections. For some years the Democrats have gotten the popular vote but have lost the electoral votes.

One of Tim Walz’s and others’ desire is to abolish the Electoral College. The college makes sure that there are equal votes in all the states. If it is abolished, and the election is by popular vote, then the 5 or 6 largest cities would determine the who becomes President, and smaller cities and less populated states would not have votes that mattered.

What they hoped to accomplish is that they'll get the popular vote and now with more Democrats in the states they'll also get the Electoral College votes. Again they're gaming the system. And they don't care what it costs the citizens to pay for all of this.

The Democrats do not live as the average citizen does

They don't have to buy food or get gas so they have no clue as to what we go through anymore. When they get their candidate as the President, they will decide what they think is best for Americans regardless of what the people want. If you truly research them, they push a socialist/communist type of government.

I'm not trying to have Democrats turn into Republicans. I just want to point out another issue that the Democrats are doing in opposition of what it means to be in America. I would just like people to understand what the repercussions are of the different policies that they have. And to do research on all these policies.

Right now the Democratic Party is not the party of your fathers or grandfathers.
