Trending coverage from CNN reports that journalist Julia Loffe had harsh words for the Trump Administration’s measures to finetune immigration and a somewhat backwards compliment for First Lady Melania Trump. In her mind, the restriction of unskilled immigrants is “restrictive” and Loffe also believes the First Lady was only able to immigrate to America because she was a “beautiful white woman from Europe.” Loffe also claimed that President Trump’s latest immigration mandates would create “the right kind of demographic engineering” to benefit himself.
Like most liberals, Loffe fails to realize the display of her own racist projections as she attempts to censure others. For starters, President Trump’s so called “restriction” on immigration is merely a measure to prioritize immigrants who can financially support themselves, speak English, and contribute to the economy.
Granting entry to useful immigrants who contribute to the private sector will actually benefit the nation, and minority workers, as President Trump publicly stated, but of course, liberals had to make it about race. When the left thinks of skilled, English speaking, and contributing immigrants, they only think of white people and Europeans, which is quite unfortunate. There are a plethora of legal immigrants with the aforementioned qualities, who may not be white or European, but left leaning Democrats ignore them because they do not fit into the victimhood hierarchy.
