Excellent moment in Hunter Biden interview about appealing to Trump voters

No. They should have been educated.
Educated on what exactly? How great illegal mass migration is?

I don't think that dog will hunt, and neither should it.
Educated on first generation immigrant labor's contribution to our economy. And beyond the low wages keeping inflation at bay, employers want first generation immigrant labor because they work hard and show up for work every day sober. They can be counted on. Schedules can be kept. You're not going to get this trying to get citizens at the lowest end of the economic spectrum put to work even with vocational training. You will to a point but the attrition rate will be abysmal.
Check out my post.

This all could have been solved prior to Trump entering office or at least driven in the right direction but it was Trump's signature problem he wanted to solve during his administration. In time Trump will have ICE tamp down the fear factor. Inflation will dictate his actions.


And the context:
As to the strategy, it's bullshit. Trump addressed some real concerns people are having. He was the wrong answer, of course, as he is making things worse. That does not mean that the concerns of much of the electorate should be ignored, mocked etc.
One of the reasons Trump won reelection was the border. The Democratic Party wed itself to the idea of supporting illegals - overly generous asylum policies that encourage wholesale migration, sanctuary city polices, etc. It was like that during the debates for the 2020 election too, with most of the candidates pushing more permissive policies toward mass illegal migration. I think that had it not been for COVID19, and Trump's mismanagement thereof, that he would have cruised to reelection in 2020.
No. They should have been educated. Now we're all gonna find out the hard way. And why? Because the politician's only concern is keeping their happy ass in office so they appease the ignorant masses they call constituents.
 
Hunter Biden goes off beautifully on the David Axelrod/Rahm Emanuel strategy of appealing to Trump voters by sharing their concerns.
I found it infuriating. Both the crackhead and the interviewer were 100% pushing illegal migration. The crackhead said that white Americans are 45x more likely to commit crimes than illegals, and the interviewer said that anybody who comes to the US illegally through the southern border should automatically get citizenship.

Edit: unable to share clips on here. The relevant spot is at 1:11:20 and goes for about a minute.
First of all, why does the crackhead ramble on for over 3 hours? What is he talking about, other than his full-throated support for mass illegal migration?
Second, you can post videos already "fast forwarded" to a particular time stamp. Like this:

The code for it is below, with time in seconds.

Hunter never said or implied you ignore or mock their concerns. He was arguing for changing their perceptions (with proper education) and appealing to other values (like compassion) though proper leadership.
