Mitt Romney: What if we took liberal progressive policies but made it racist so that we cater to the Trump/domestic terrorist vote? https://twitter.com/SenatorRomney/status/1361722325436141569
'Americans need economic help. Let's take an economic crisis that has nothing to do with immigrants, and blame it on immigrants. Just for shits.'

I see we are back to the "subtle" racism from "good" Republicans like Romney.

The entire party can go fuck itself.
Steady, consistent, dog-whistles like this is how you build to fascists like Trump and get an entire segment of unhinged voters who think it's cool to storm the Capitol, let black men get killed by the police, and torture brown children in cages FYI.
"We must protect American workers [from brown immigrants.]"

Fucking hell, I am seething. I am so glad I spent the bulk of my 2012 ensuring Mitt Romney will never be president. Fuck him, fuck this, fuck off.
If we've landed at the bipartisan conclusion that minimum wage needs to go up but your ask in the negotiation is adding racist nationalist xenophobic "protections" you are racist, nationalist, and xenophobic and you are part of the problem, Senator @MittRomney.
This isn't compromising. This is hateful racism for the sake of hateful racism. Undocumented immigrants have nothing to do with minimum wage and there is no verifiable research that shows that undocumented immigrants harm American businesses in the least.

This is repulsive.
