As noted in a recent column by Ben Domenech, founding editor of The Federalist and senior fellow in health care at the Heartland Institute, Republicans on Capitol Hill and their staffers seem genuinely baffled by the rise of 2016 GOP presidential frontrunner and billionaire businessman Donald Trump. Many of them have privately opined that Trump actually does not represent the Republican Party at all (although he recently signed a pro-GOP pledge) and that he would destroy it if elected.
In reality, Trump supporters counter, the Republican leadership has done more damage to the party’s brand over the past decade than anything the billionaire real estate mogul could possibly do, mostly by promising to pursue what used to be cornerstone conservative principles and policies and then once in the majority, bowing to every liberal/progressive initiative pushed by President Obama.
One case in point, say Trump supporters, is the GOP leadership’s outright refusal to seriously challenge Obama’s flagrant abuse of authority in granting amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants and deportation deferrals. Another, they say, is the GOP’s willingness to look the other way on massive legal immigration that is hurting American workers.
Trump’s message on immigration – legal and otherwise – has been fairly consistent since he launched his campaign: he aims to put Americans first when it comes to immigration policy, which means he will end policies that hurt American workers and adopt measures that better protect them since he won’t have to placate big donors who want more immigrants.
There is no doubt that Trump has been influenced in large part by stories like one told by a former employee of the Walt Disney Co. who was recently replaced by a lower-wage worker from another country.
