    Curious! there are approximately 12 Million Illegal Aliens in the United States, many who've paid nothing into the American Healthcare system. A large percentage, 100's of thousands of those Illegals are going to get Covid-19 and need to be put on a Ventilator. If you as a US citizen has a child with a Pre-existing medical condition or elderly Parent that is infected with Coronavirus and is in immediate need of a Ventilator, but they aren't available, because many of them are being used to keep illegals who sneaked into the Country alive, are you going to have an issue with that.

    Welcome to the Democrats Medicaid for all!!
    Your Grandfather who’s lived here all his life and paid (more than) his fair share into the system is now not as important because he’s older, and has a lot less life ahead of him than the younger illegal that’s only been here a week and has paid NOTHING into the system.
    Medicaid for all = Let the politicians decide who’s more important to save.
    Pretty freakin scary.

    Just imagine if you're a Parent of a child with a compromised immune system, because they have Cancer and they get sick with Coronavirus and can't get on a Ventilator, because there are too many sick Illegals who shouldn't be here in the first place on them. I'd flipping FREAK OUT if I lost one of my Kids, because Liberals who allowed Illegals into my Sanctuary State or Cities allowed that to happen, but I can ASSURE! you that Politicians and their Families are going to get those Ventilators no matter what. I certainly am not going to enjoy seeing these Death Panels if we get as bad as Italy or Spain.

    Democrats don't care about American citizens. None of us are above the law, yet every illegal alien is. When America is in crisis they push for their agenda before even giving one thought for citizens that are suffering. All the while their pet media spins the blame on everyone else...

    The OPINION of the Author of the OP is unsurprising.

    The minute I read this part, it was clear her only intention was to Bash Dems.:

    Yet far-left liberals like Sanders and Biden not only want open borders -- as do the rest of their out-of-touch party

    ^So great to have an Unbiased Point of View.:bored:

    In fact, Cohen has a reputation for being a Pro-Trump Looney Toon:

    https://www.mediaite.com/tv/trump-s...llow-guest-of-having-an-affair-with-ted-cruz/

    Obviously, I think the opinion in the OP is utter BS.
    But, I would expect nothing less from a Trump Sycophant like Cohen.

    We know now what works. Even a single or two doses of Cloroquine are getting people past the critical phase of the illness, and on the road to recovery. There's no need for thousands more to die which I'm sure is a major disappointment on the left.

    There's a drug being used in Japan called Avigan which has also been shown to be "very effective."

    The Chinese propagandist WHO is also two other therapies along with those I mentioned.

    My WAG is that there are probably a handful of existing antivirals which if tested would probably save lives. Getting thru the bureaucracy is a bitch, tho. :(

    It's not just the bureaucracy that's the problem. The left and their media pets naysay any treatment that could lessen this crisis...

    It seems some lefties are willing to kill themselves with fish tank cleaner to disprove something, something, something that President Trump never said.

    Coronavirus doesn't know the difference between American Citizens and Illegal Aliens, but 12 Milion Illegal Aliens ARE! here and whatever the percentage of people in the United States are getting infected with Coronavirus, that percentage is going to infect Illegal Aliens that shouldn't be here in the first place and using up resources that should be available to US Citizens in the United States. What if the Whole World, 7 Billion people decided to rush the United States border seeking medical care for Coronavirus, are we going to try to provide Ventilators to all of them, which there arn't enough available. Once we get through this, I hope some serious policy changes are made for the Rule of Law for immigration is to be followed and more stringent preventive measures started to thoroughly Vet who comes into America to prevent them from bringing Disease and using up United States Healthcare resources meant for US Citizens, which arn't designed to take care of Millions of trespassing Foreigners sneaking into our Country. If I get infected with Coronavirus, maybe Andrew will let me come over to his House and get into his Refrigerator to make a Sandwich if I get hungry, since he's such a big supporter for Open Borders and Protecting trespassers.

    Life's a bitch. First you're born. Then you pay taxes until you die. Get over it.

    Here's a news flash for you. Millions of illegals, like DACA contribute in revenue and by paying taxes to this country and these are benefit they're paying into which they will never be entitled to like Social Security and Medicare.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_impact_of_illegal_immigrants_in_the_United_States

    IRS estimates that about 6 million unauthorized immigrants file individual income tax returns each year.[9] Research reviewed by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office indicates that between 50 percent and 75 percent of unauthorized immigrants pay federal, state, and local taxes.[9] Illegal immigrants are estimated to pay in about $7 billion per year into Social Security.[21] In addition, they spend millions of dollars per year, which supports the US economy and helps to create new jobs. The Texas State Comptroller reported in 2006 that the 1.4 million unauthorized immigrants in Texas added almost $18 billion to the gross state product, and contributed $1.6 billion in state revenue, while costing the state about $1.6 billion in services used.

    Dear Trumpsters, you always find a place to spew your racism.

    Are you going to need 10 million sick people to understand that the most responsible for this mess is Donald Trump ?

    Pontius Pilate Pelosi cares for nobody but the Democrat elite. The suffering of the American people is a means to an end for her.

    Trump acted right away by closing travel and shipments from China. On the other hand Biden was Vice-President while Obama/Biden failed to close the Mexican border and travel with Mexico which was the country or origin for the H1N1 Swine Flu........12,000 Americans died.

    He restricted travel from China for cheers from his xenophobic base. Then he did nothing -- for weeks.

    Just for contrast and clarity, we found out about H1N1 from Mexico in April 2009. Obama didn't declare a National State of Emergency until October 2009. He also never cut off travel to Mexico (the country of origin) nor did he close the border. 12, 000 died.

    Nobody wants "open borders".

    And, the reasons for there not being enough ventilators has NOTHING to do with immigration.

    Since many illegals are working at low wage jobs doing the dirty work for hospitals and nursing homes and food providers and farm workers caring for and harvesting crops and animals, are you ready to clean the bed pans, wash up the feces, prepare and feed your "kids", clean up, go get your food, and the millions of other tasks need to keep the sick and elderly at bargain rates?

    Hey, why don't the illegal haters start by replacing lithens and clean bathrooms at Trump's resorts, where Trump seems to be very careless abot citizenship for his profitable businesses? (That never seem to make even a dollar of taxes?)



    If you somehow throw out (our businessmen will never do that) all the illgals today, Americans families will be crying rivers over the death of their families who will die wihout proper care without the millions of illegal workers who take care of and service the health care infrastructure.

    I suggest anyone who wants, simply demand any employee and service person show you their legal papers! Its quick to check them from the feds, too! Have fun!

    Imagine being a Republican and hating everyone and everything that is different than perception.
    Now if you all can figure out how to keep whites immune from this, you all will be very very happy.

    I've heard such before, but find it hard to believe. Here's why: when you apply for a job, you have to fill out a form, I forget what it's called (I-9?) that says you are a citizen, right? Most of the illegals in our neck of the woods (Midwest) work as roofers, etc., and require cash payments. They aren't paying taxes.

    At any rate, me thinks this will be pretty much the end of "open borders".

    Pointing out FACTS about the strain ILLEGALS place on our burdened medical system is no more "racist" than a glass of water. Would it concern you if YOU came down with it and NO ventilator was available?
