Here you go, have fun with your mental gymnastics.

A moratorium on all immigration? Ending the rights of family members of some current immigrants to immigrate?

Listen, I'm a law and order guy.  If you could get a President and majorities in both houses of Congress to agree to that, I'd go along with it.  But I'm not personally for that.  It seems to me we have a shortage of willing labor around here which is creating both wage growth and inflation, but the inflation is larger than the wage growth.  Seems to me we need more legal immigrants who are able bodied at the moment.  I think we agree about trying to eliminate illegal immigration, at least vastly reduce it and send more people back.  I think we agree that welfare should be less accessible for immigrants, but, its already less accessible. 

I don't see why you and Trump also want to reduce legal immigration.  I mean, I do see why, you said it, you think that immigrants want to kill you and your culture, but that's utterly delusional and racist.  So it's better that I tell you I don't see these points, because I'm sure you didn't enjoy being called a delusional racist there.

You seem to think that I care what you call me. The people that want to kill our culture are already here and mostly rich white people, so I don't think you've really grasped what you think you understand. You also don't seem to understand what happens to labor in a Recession, but that's ok, you'll find out soon enough.

The bill says a moratorium on all immigration for a period of four years or until Americans can get back to work.  Is Marjorie Taylor Greene, Who apparently originated this bill, aware that there is a labor shortage in this country right now?

The times they are a'changing. Can you tell me how those who participated in the so called Great Resignation and remain unemployed are currently paying their bills? How will those folks continue that behavior in the long term? What happens to people who are continually rejected for positions in their preferred field of employment? What do the answers to these questions tell you about the long term outlook for labor in this Country?

I think both of you would furiously bail water out of your boat without ever thinking to plug the hole in the bow.
