Pelosi agreed with President Obama that Walls do work and supported building a wall. Why do they oppose a wall now? The answer, obvious on the surface, is that with the presstitutes lined up against The Wall, Democrats can use the issue against Trump. However, this answer is not as good as it looks. Polls show that Trump has a far higher approval rating than the presstitute media and that Americans want the wall. So the question becomes: why have the Democrats lined up against the American people by opposing a wall? Why do Democrats oppose Americans having their own country as a place where American citizens live? Why do Democrats want America to be up for grabs by everyone who can illegally cross the border?<\/p>\n<p>The answer, I think, is not just the immigrant vote, but also that in the last decade Democrats have become firmly allied with the ideology of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paulcraigroberts.org\/2019\/01\/14\/identity-politics-white-genocide\/\">Identity Politics<\/a>, which teaches that \u201cwhiteness\u201d needs to be dismantled, that is, done away with.\u00a0To have a massive inflow of nonwhites is a way to \u201cdecenter whiteness.\u201d I would wager that if the illigal immigrants were white Europeans, the Democrats would be all for building The Wall.<span class=\"amazon-element-wrapper-custom align-right\"><br \/>\n<span class=\"amazon-element-med-image\"><span class=\"amazon-image-wrapper\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Against-State-Anarcho-Capitalist-Llewellyn-Rockwell\/dp\/0990463109?SubscriptionId=AKIAI63WS3YGA3Y5U2QA&amp;tag=lrc18-20&amp;linkCode=xm2&amp;camp=2025&amp;creative=165953&amp;creativeASIN=0990463109\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/I\/518lPjolIHL.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"amazon-image amazon-image-medium\"\/><\/a><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"amazon-element-title\"><span class=\"appip-title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Against-State-Anarcho-Capitalist-Llewellyn-Rockwell\/dp\/0990463109?SubscriptionId=AKIAI63WS3YGA3Y5U2QA&amp;tag=lrc18-20&amp;linkCode=xm2&amp;camp=2025&amp;creative=165953&amp;creativeASIN=0990463109\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Against the State: An &#8230;<\/a><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"amazon-element-author\">Llewellyn H.
