Re: This is why Democrats Will Lose Again

The Republicans successfully poisoned the debate on immigration in their favor. Obama had a very sensible policy, but no Democrat dares to support that policy without looking like they have been bought by Trump.

I find this statement rather humorous. All the Republicans did was copy what worked, which was Obama's plan. Republicans likely didn't want their own base to realize that they were just copy-pasting Obama's policies instead of building a wall, so they talked it up to disguise it as if it was their own. Since some left-leaning media organizations (mainly CNN and internet-only publications) write stories starting from the premise "everything Trump does is wrong" and working backward from there, they wound up poisoning it all on their own. Bad journalism caused this.
