IHis base will be happy. It’s an appeal to white nationalism.
New policy of targeting legal immigrants over "welfare" is about midterms. But advocates believe it could resonate not just w/Trump base but also w/softer Rs.
If GOP does better than expected tonight, expect this stuff to ramp up.@paulwaldman1 and me:https://t.co/ZZxH3zHFDa

Trump adviser Stephen Miller has a plan to impede the status of millions of legal immigrants: report https://t.co/18CNWdKHqI

This is outrageous. Legally using Obamacare or food assistance shouldn’t disqualify immigrants from becoming citizens. https://t.co/lfZ1knbvrq

Forcing legal immigrants to abandon all hope of citizenship or even green card status unless they deny their own children food stamps or health insurance is a cruel Sophie’s Choice akin to the family separation policy Trump imposed. @chrislhayes @AC360 https://t.co/S09q4KLje1

Opinion: Trump and Stephen Miller are now targeting legal immigrants. This will get uglier. https://t.co/LnALahxJfH

Trump & Stephen Miller are playing white nationalist playbook, going after immigrants by reviving a racist law from 1800s that seeks to keep 20 mil immigrants from receiving citizenship. We must stick together in the streets, in the courts, & at the ballot box!

Stephen Miller is simply a sadistic white supremacist monster. His family should be deeply ashamed on him. As should any decent people. This is the antithesis of American values. https://t.co/apAhhbN9hM
