“America was designed to be a white country”
Your just conveniently leaving out that from the very start we were shipping in Africans as slave labor and Asians as cheap labor for the railroads etc.
Not to mention when Italians and Irish came here they were considered black. We were still let in. In droves and this was prior to the 1960’s. But they needed us, again, as cheap labor to build their skyscrapers and work their coal mines.
You might want to reconsider your position. This country was never a “white country” - and the addition of non white people was purposeful. I’m sorry that the majority of us aren’t too keen to go back to a world where non white people occupy a clear and separate and deliberate second class of citizen.
I don’t know why he flip - flopped and a couple of quotes does not necessarily tell me he did. I’ll look into it and get back to you. But I will say this, he isn’t calling for open borders NOW. Immigration isn’t a black and white issue - either open borders or none at all - for the vast majority of people in this country it’s more complicated then that.
In exchange for closed borders would you be okay with pulling back the USA’s entire global presence? Sending some sort of financial support to the south and Central American countries that we helped create crisis in with our policies?
