12/25/2018

In this opinion piece from The New Yorker, the author discusses the misconception surrounding President Trump's opponents and their stance on immigration. The article argues that Trump's opponents are often accused of arguing for open borders, but the author suggests that maybe they should actually embrace this position. By examining the economic, moral, and political aspects of open borders, the author makes the case that a more open immigration policy could have positive effects and addresses common critiques against it. The article challenges readers to reconsider their perspectives on immigration and engage in a more nuanced discussion.
