manipulated quotes

Here’s his very next post:

That’s an interesting claim. One thing to keep in mind is that leftists continuously conflate illegal immigration with legal immigration. The open borders crowd in particular, etc.

Standard lefty boilerplate - “We are a nation of immigrants!”
While this is about as meaningless a statement as can be made the speaker is clearly conflating controlled legal immigration as was done in the past. No comparison whatsoever.

Seems pretty clear to me that his misquote was aimed at buttressing this characterization.
