Victor Davis Hanson
3. You say you will compare your record to Trump’s on the border anytime. Can you please then answer “yes” or “no” to the following questions:
a) Did you support canceling the Trump border wall mid-construction when your administration took office? And if you refused to continue building the wall, do you now support tearing down those sections that were recently rebuilt as useless?
b) Why did you bring back “catch-and-release” that forced the border patrol to release arrested illegal aliens?
c) Did you advocate abolishing ICE when you declared we needed to “start from scratch” on border enforcement? Do you now wish to apologize to ICE officers when you compared the border enforcement agency to the KKK and suggested that they whipped immigrants from horses in ways reminiscent of slavery?
d) Why did you oppose requiring potential immigrants to apply for refugee status in their own home countries rather than applying for it after illegally entering the U.S.?
e) Did you oppose deportations for those who entered the country illegally during your tenure as Vice President?
f) Was the reason you opposed deportation, because you have stated that illegally entering the United States was not a crime? Is there a statute that says anyone without permission can enter the United States from a foreign country anytime and anywhere he chooses? Can U.S. citizens do that as well?
g) Did you say that Americans were not to use the term “illegal alien,” and your administration would thus not use it in reference to foreign nationals who illegally entered the United States? Are foreign nationals crashing the border then entering the U.S. legally, or are they not legally “aliens,” as the IRS and Supreme Court have previously defined non-U.S. citizens of foreign countries?
h) Have you in the past supported sanctuary cities and given the power to local and state jurisdictions as a state attorney general to nullify federal immigration laws? Do you support the general practices of state and local entities deciding which federal laws they may choose to obey, and would that include federal gun registration laws or the federal EPA’s endangered species lists?
i) Did you support the extension of de facto free federal health care via the envisioned Medicare for All plan to illegal aliens? If so, did you offer ways to pay for the projected cost to insure 10 million more illegal aliens, in addition to the 20-30 million already residing in the U.S.?
4. Are you still for abolishing private health care plans for Americans, or do you now support abolishing them only for some Americans?
5. Do you still support, as you did when an elected official in California, the banning of all fracking, horizontal drilling, and offshore drilling—de facto the three primary ways the United States provides oil to its citizens? What methods would you allow American drillers to recover oil and natural gas?
6. During the four months of violent protests in the late spring and summer of 2020, did you help galvanize your supporters (e.g.” If you’re able to, chip in now to the @MNFreedomFund to help post bail for those protesting on the ground in Minnesota”) to contribute to the Minnesota project to bail out protestors and demonstrators accused of using violence?
Were you aware that those and other protests that summer led to 1,500 injured police officers, 35-40 deaths, $2 billion in property damage, 14,000 arrests, and attempts to burn down a federal courthouse, a police precinct, and a historic Washington, D.C. church, as well as to storm the White House grounds and reach the president (removed to an underground bunker given the violence)?
