House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Monday blasted President Trump’s push for a citizenship question on the 2020 census as an effort to “Make America White Again” — claiming, “it’s not what our founders had in mind.” “They want to make sure that people, certain people, are counted,” Pelosi said at a press conference in San Francisco that focused on election security. “Just their people vote and not the general population,” said the Democratic lawmaker. “That’s why they’re fighting the census.” White House officials did not immediately return requests for comment from The Post on the statements. Pelosi, who was visiting her home district Monday, repeatedly called the idea of adding a citizenship question to next year’s survey “disgraceful.” “This is about keeping — you know … his hat — Make America White Again,” she said. The Trump administration has said the proposed citizenship question would help the government enforce the Voting Rights Act, which protects minority voters’ access to the ballot box. 2020 Census may have citizenship question after all According to Pelosi, what they really want to do “is put a chilling effect so certain populations will not answer the form.” It's really disgraceful. And it’s not what our founders had in mind,” Pelosi said. The president has vowed to continue his efforts to get the citizenship question added to next year’s census. The Supreme Court recently rejected the idea, saying the Trump administration needs to provide a further explanation of why it should be included.

Poster Comment: What's disgraceful is larding up America with disease-ridden illiterate trash unwanted from the nations they're fleeing. What's disgraceful is allowing Democrat-Communists and their Republicrat buddies to trash the Constitution making it irrelevant to today's treason. They're paving the way for a benevolent despot to take charge and toss their sorry asses in front of a firing squad or a life at hard labor.

My current theory is that Trump took a dive on the House in '18 and let the 'Rats have it - now they've got a head of steam and are drunk on impotent "power", so they're showing their butts and allowing truly-dumb assholes to drive the bus. In their impotent rage, the 'Rats somehow think this will attract support. This will bring about the demise of the 'Rat party, God willing.

Hopefully they're committing political suicide and perhaps some will recognize their failures and literally kill themselves.
