In an op-ed appearing on the leading opinion site, Townhall.com, I note the logical inconsistency between Bernie Sanders’ positions on free trade and immigration. While Sanders steadfastly opposes trade agreements like NAFTA and the proposed TPP pact because he believes they cost Americans jobs, he supports mass immigration and blanket amnesty for illegal aliens. “However, if that exact same worker from another country shows up illegally in this country and fills the exact same job, displacing the exact same American worker, Sen. Sanders seemingly has no problem with that,” notes the op-ed.
