A plan by President Donald Trump to ban immigrants who have only been living in the U.S. for less than five years from receiving welfare services has widespread support.

In a new Rasmussen poll, 62 percent of likely voters said they support barring new immigrants to the U.S. from receiving welfare benefits for at least five years, as Trump recently proposed during a speech to supporters.

Middle-class Americans making $30,000 to $50,000 a year are the most likely to support the ban on welfare for immigrants, with 72 percent in favor. Those who describe themselves as “moderates” are also on-board at a rate of 61 percent.

Even more is the prospects of making sure no illegal aliens receive taxpayer-funded public welfare benefits.

A whopping 76 percent said those seeking welfare should be made to certify that they are in the U.S. legally. Only 17 percent oppose the plan.

Would that be the Trump 5 year ban on welfare for immigrants that Bill Clinton enacted more than 20 years ago?
 
Reminds me of a fab NYT mag article I read earlier this year with a historian revisiting the origins and evolution of the American conservative party.

The tl;dr is that a lot of its core underpinnings stem from white people who didn't want to see rights and entitlements go to non-whites. There was a period - far too long - in which it was fashionable in media, politics, and academics to pretend this wasn't true. But it is, and always has been.

Thank you for sharing the article that was written by Rick Perlstein.

Rick Perlstein...

Perlstein's 2014 book The Invisible Bridge received "sharp criticism from some scholars and commentators who accuse Mr. Perlstein of sloppy scholarship, improper attribution and plagiarism," The New York Times reported. Conservative author and historian Craig Shirley alleged that Perlstein stole distinctive words and phrasing from Reagan's Revolution.[33] Perlstein's supporters regarded the criticism as a partisan attack. Responding to numerous complaints, Times public editor Margaret Sullivan dismissed the plagiarism allegations as a "smear" and criticized the reporting for "conferr[ing] a legitimacy on the accusation it would not otherwise have had."[34]

Trump's proposal would build on the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, which allows federal authorities to deport immigrants who become public dependents within five years of their arrival. Many of that law’s provisions were rolled back during the George W. Bush and Barack Obama administrations, but Trump's proposal would make more categories of federal benefits off-limits to immigrants.

I've been a flaming queen on this board since 2003. You think you can gaybait me now?

When did you know you were a flaming queen v. just a regular queen?

Was it before or after reading the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996?

See post #11.
