It's like asking conservatives if illegals are lazy, why is ICE raiding job sites? Logic ain't their strong suit.

Magats are experts at cognitive dissonance. They can quite happily hold the belief that illegals are lazy and live off government handouts while also holding the belief that illegals are stealing their jobs.

Migrant workers, or what Magats would call "illegals" are sponsored by US employers and come in on a special visa type such as H-1A or H-2B. We will all remember the Magat leaders backpeddling on those visas and calling them necessary right ... Right?

So if migrants (supposed illegals) are stealing jobs ... then MAGA is supporting it. Cognitive dissonance? No ... these people are just stupid.

Plus they aren't reporting raids in red states because it will dispell the illusion that illegals only occur in blue states, and red States have significantly more "raids apparently"
