“The executive branch is required to ​enforce the census and count the people so ​that we know that ​we can participate in the franchise and have​ free and fair​ elections.

“You can’t hijack something you already own. The last time I checked, the president is an American, and he’s an American president. But the left falls into this trap all the time.

The Huffington Post reports: Right-wing radio host Rush Limbaugh went on a racist rant about Rep.

“They have more hate than any extreme right-wing group they claim to be afraid of or opposed to than you could count. They have more hate than any of the hate that was at Charlottesville.

“What’s even nastier is how out of touch all of these candidates are with their own voters.

“We’ve got tens of millions of aliens both legally and unlawfully present, and the idea that they A, don’t register to vote and then B, vote is just ludicrous.
