Thank you.

People thinking this is some kind of "good move" need to try to remember what administration they're talking about. If you don't understand the play, it's not because you're not being played.

You don't need to believe the administration is Satanic, white nationalist, or whatever else.

It is politically advantageous for them if fewer immigrants enter the United States, because immigrants tend to vote for the other side. And so they wish to reduce immigration. Like everything else in politics, it is simply about power.

That’s a misrepresentation of their point.

They’re merely suggesting that when considering this immigration policy it should be taken into account that the administration creating it has white nationalists as policy advisers.

Nope. GP is very clearly asserting that Trump is playing everyone:

If an anti-immigration admin makes a move that seems pro-immigration, be suspicious. At the very least it is only pro-corporate.
