Candidates like Rubio and Kasich who are so concerned with not offending minorities are going to fold like a cheap umbrella the first time their policies are criticized. Seeking universal approval is a great weakness of Republican politicians.<\/p>\n<p>* It seems as if English pundits change their views more than American pundits. My vague impression is that it\u2019s a pretty standard move in British press circles for a columnist to change sides: e.g., Paul Johnson, Christopher Hitchens, and a lot of people who aren\u2019t as well known in America.<\/p>\n<p>* The real danger is when a candidate doesn\u2019t want to hurt the feelings of his major contributors. Many of these candidates are pro-immigration less due to PC than the influence of business interests. Fortunately, Trump is self-funding, which gives him a certain degree of autonomy. He\u2019s also politically incorrect, unlike Sanders.<\/p>\n<p>Trump has come out 5 times against the H1b \u2013 in his position paper, twice on Twitter, in this recent Breitbart interview, and during his rally in Nevada. He also says that only foreign H1bs he wants are the graduates of Ivy league schools (whose numbers are trivially small anyway).<\/p>\n<p>* I\u2019ve grown to really hate my country, America. So many self-interested traitors seeking immigrant votes, cheap labor, or social status. Anti-whites control and run everything. Nobody will dare espouse explicitly pro-white views in mainstream discourse, but many will preach with smug self-righteousness about how it is a moral imperative for whites to be replaced and for the world to become a non-white planet. California girls used to be regarded as some of the most beautiful women in the world, but today that state is overrun by endless waves of brown masses. There\u2019s just no resistance to the rape and defilement of America. Even Jeff Sessions will only talk about immigration in economic terms. No mainstream figure will take a stand for white people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comments to Steve Sailer: * One of the reasons I trust Trump on immigration is that he doesn\u2019t mind hurting the feelings of Mexicans.
