President Trump has been battling with Democrats on immigration since before he took office. It appears that the Democrats seem to just argue against whatever President Trump is arguing for.

Former DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson, who served under Obama, has had enough and is slamming the Democrats for their radical immigration ideas and proposals.

According to The Daily Caller:

Former Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson cautioned Democrats on pivoting too far to the left on immigration issues, warning that it could cost them in the 2020 election.

“Look, most Americans want to be fair and treated in a humane way, those who have migrated here who are desperate, who are fleeing really bad conditions … We want to take care of the Dreamers, but Americans also want secure borders. They want to get control of illegal migration,” Johnson, who served as DHS secretary during the Obama administration, said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”

“So when we talk about deprioritizing the deportation of those apprehended at the border or decriminalizing illegal immigration, I know that we’re going way too far to the left of the American consensus on where we should be on this. And you just cannot have a policy where a Border Patrol agent arrests someone at the border and says, in effect, ‘you get to stay here unless you commit a crime,’” Johnson continued. 

Johnson identified himself as a “loyal Democrat” who wants to see his party win in the next election, but he suggested that the positions taken by many Democratic presidential contenders do not appeal to a wide consensus of Americans.

Johnson has spoken publically of his opposition to open border which he says incentivizes illegal immigration.

It is also worth noting that President Obama deported illegal aliens at a higher rate than President Trump and the Democrats were fine with it then.
