2. By 2007, when the town council in Hazleton, PA, began fighting back against massive relocations, one-third of the entire town's population of 31,000 was illegal immigrants relocated against the will of the citizens.
But Hazleton is poor. Martha's Vineyard is rich.
3. At the time the federal judge who probably vacations in Martha's Vineyard blocked Hazleton, PA, from enforcing the Illegal Immigration Relief Act Ordinance, 31 other towns were declaring similar crisis and 10 more had adopted similar laws to fight "declining quality of life".
4. Truth be told, rich elites don't care about how illegal immigration has destroyed the "quality of life" for regular citizens in Hazleton or any other town.
Who will do the laundry for them at Martha's Vineyard? Destroying their personal paradise, however, out of the question.

Donald Trump: "@TimRyan is a militant left-winger who is lying to your faces, acting as though he's my friend on policy, pretending to be a moderate so he can get elected and betray you on everything."
"He recently called on his supporters to 'kill MAGA'".
That landed.
Trump follows it up with, "It's total bullshit."
I can identify with that. My wife yells at me when I use that word, too. But sometimes, despite a fairly deep vocabulary, there's just no word better than "bullshit" to describe so much of what we hear and see.
Two underachievers, with @Nate_Cohn at least being cautious and attempting to learn from his mistakes, and the other being the paid-for loser @NateSilver538, who has failed every single year since Obama stopped giving him polling data.
Sure, the two events aren’t remotely comparable, but that is what they’re doing.
However, the environment they’re trying to create is even worse, even more dangerous, because the “other” is 1) half the country, and 2) not a foreign threat or ideology.
Curious if Tom Bonier (TargetSmart CEO), who found one of very few @trafalgar_group polls to criticize over the last 8 or so years, can tell me whether his operation or their firm gave an accurate portrayal in New Jersey, as well?
There’s this great resource we all used to go to before everyone was a partisan shill to find out who funded who. It’s called @OpenSecretsDC and I am a little confused why they let people get away with lies like that.
Say what you want about Donald Trump, but he is not funded by Wall Street. Many of his own party still were in 2016 and that was a great source of problems for him and his movement. But @MittRomney was the last GOP candidate for POTUS backed by Wall Street.
1. Little commentary on PA #Poll instead of responding to everyone in individual replies.
When the Generic Ballot and Most Important Issues are published, it'll help illustrate the following:
Look at undecideds, especially by EDU. Fetterman/Shapiro are near their ceilings.
2. Repeat: Look at undecideds, especially by EDU. @JohnFetterman & @JoshShapiroPA are near their ceilings. Very few ADV/Post-Grads & 4-Years undecided compared to Some / Associate and HS / Less, who break hard for @dougmastriano & @DrOz.

3. You'll also see the same shortly with issue voters and Trump vs. Biden voters. Voters who cite GOP-friendly issues (Econ/Jobs/Inflation/etc) this cycle are far more undecided than those who cite DEM-friendly issues (Abortion/Climate Change/Etc).
