resorting to blatant lies now i see...
in what world does this article, overinterpreting the very specific claims of a left leaning democrat on this issue, come even remotely close to outweighing the concrete support for increased funding of border security? how does this count as a source for the official 'END GOAL' of the democratic party? remember, that was your claim.
i know this story was a big deal for republicans and conservative pundits in the summer, finally being able to point at something and go 'look, we told you, democrats want open borders!' - but apparently i again overestimated your intelligence and common sense, assuming you would be able to identify this as what it is: the deliberate overinterpretation of what already is an outlier - even pedo moore had SIGNIFICANTLY more support within his party than the assumptions and conclusions of this opinion piece have within the democratic party.
are you even trying to make an at least somewhat reasonable point here or are you going for the low hanging 'technically i can claim i found a democrat supporting an open southern border, that's good enough to claim democrats question the legitimacy of having borders' fruit?
he's the chairperson of the DNC and he's just one of many many many many democrats using the same unrealistic and extreme rhetoric. the article included a poll that stated americans agree that the democrats are largely grandstanding on immigration with little desire to fix things.
im not making an anecdotal argument, i did 3 seconds of research and found top down rhetoric from DNC leadership. 10 seconds more and i can find another few senators. i can do it all day. are you drunk?
keeping in mind of course, as stated above, i find these people to be a minority of the left. most mainstreamers are less extreme. they still exist, and not in insignificant numbers. the number of leftists who signed or supported "Abolish ICE" proves this with ease.

seriously, you might not even realise it, but your desperate attempt to justify right wing propaganda concerning this issue makes you look incredibly stupid...
