Would you care to elaborate? To me, it looks an awful lot like one of the single most partisan issues of present times.

Maybe you mean immigration. Do the democrats want 11 million illegal immigrants in the country? Maybe that's the reason they're no longer in power.

there's only one side of the political "debate" (such as it is) that is going full fascist, but go ahead, keep pretending this is a both sides issue
