Here is a blog I wrote in September…of last year, not this year. Please read it through, especially the latter part which I have put in bold print, and see if it makes any sense:

WHEN NIMBY BECOMES IMBY (CONT.): ILLEGALS AND THE NORTHEAST
Millions and millions of illegals allowed into the country by Joe Biden/his puppeteers. Who are they and where are they going?
Not much of a problem….as long as they aren’t going where you are, right? But if it’s you who has to deal with them? That just might be another story.
From Karen Townsend’s article at hotair.com:
The Biden border crisis is moving north. Illegal aliens are traveling to Canada and attempting to cross into northern border states like New Hampshire, Vermont, and New York. The number of apprehensions in the Swanton sector over the last 11 months has surpassed the last 10 years combined.
On Wednesday, Chief Agent Robert Garcia of the Swanton sector of U.S. Customs & Border Protection reported that more than 6,000 apprehensions were reported over the last 11 months, a record number of arrests at northern border crossings. This is not the kind of attention this sector of CBP wants. Illegals are coming from around the world to illegally cross into the United States. Garcia stated that they came from 76 countries.
The Swanton sector spans nearly 300 miles across northern New York, Vermont, and New Hampshire. Garcia said, “Swanton Sector Agents are resolute and determined to hold the line.”
The New Hampshire Republican Party has a question for Mayor Joyce Craig of Manchester. Does she still support sanctuary city policies in New Hampshire? Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey, a Democrat, called up the National Guard to handle the illegal aliens creating an emergency situation in that state. Does that give Mayor Craig, a Democrat, pause? The New Hampshire Republican Party plans to raise that question at a press conference Friday. Craig is currently a candidate for New Hampshire governor in 2024.
Granite State Democrats do what other Democrats do – they accuse Republicans who want the borders secured as racists. They have called illegal immigration a “fake issue” promoted by Republicans. They also opposed Governor Sununu spending $1.4M to help secure the northern border.
Illegals streaming into the country is a “fake” issue, perpetrated by racist Republicans? Do New Hampshire Democrat officeholders/operatives (or, for that matter, Democrat officeholders/operatives from anywhere else) really think that is going to fly?
Here’s a bulletin for them: there is nothing “fake” about this. And, apart from the hardest-core partisans who would vote for absolutely anyone who ran Democrat, illegals are going to be a huge issue in next year’s election.
I wonder how many “liberal” voters, who suddenly find themselves dealing with the consequences of this tidal wave of illegals, will have a change of voting habits because of it?
Looking at specific communities, I wonder how many Latino votes will be lost because illegals are moving into their neighborhoods and, in many cases, bringing problems (e.g. gangs, drug activity) they came to the United States to escape.
I wonder how many Black and Latino votes will be lost because, apart from the huge amounts of money being spent on illegals that might have been spent on social services for “underserved communities”, there are so many illegals looking for the same kinds of work that will disproportionately displace members of these communities.
And that’s before we consider the fact that, as illegals, they are more likely to work for lower wages and no benefits…which, on a supply-and-demand basis, is likely to lower the wages employers would pay for legals as well.
Taking the above into account, the greatest irony of this huge invasion of illegals may well be that it moves a significant number of what, for decades, have been reliably Democrat voters away from the party.
Do I know for a fact this will happen? No, or course not. But the logic is there.
Let’s see how it plays out.
————————————————
Well, we saw how it played out, didn’t we?
Simply stated, unless there is a quantum change in how the Democrat Party operates – which, at least as of now, does not appear to be in the cards – this may well end the party’s reign as a predominating force among Latino and Black voters.
Will they figure this out? Or will they have to drop further before reality overtakes “wokeism”?
Time will tell. But, it seems to me, that clock is ticking louder and louder.
