Congressional candidate Justin Pearson (D-TN) just delivered a masterclass in political cowardice when asked a simple question: name one illegal alien he would support deporting. Spoiler alert - he couldn't do it.
Instead of giving a straight answer that might upset his radical base, Pearson launched into a predictable attack on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), claiming that no one in President Trump's administration could be "trusted" to handle immigration enforcement. Because apparently, enforcing our nation's laws is somehow untrustworthy now.
This verbal tightrope act perfectly encapsulates everything wrong with today's Democrat Party. They'll twist themselves into pretzels rather than admit the obvious truth: some people are here illegally and need to be sent home. It's not complicated, folks.
"We're watching a politician who knows his position is so radical that he can't even say it out loud," one immigration expert noted.
Pearson's refusal to name even one category of illegal aliens he'd support deporting - not violent criminals, not gang members, not drug dealers - reveals the Democrats' true agenda. They want unlimited, unchecked immigration regardless of the consequences for American families.
While President Trump is delivering on his promise of mass deportations to secure our borders and protect American workers, Democrats like Pearson are busy playing word games and attacking the brave ICE agents who risk their lives to enforce our laws.
The Real Question Patriots Should Ask
Here's what Tennessee voters need to understand: Pearson's non-answer IS the answer. When a politician can't bring themselves to say that violent criminals should be deported, they're telling you exactly where they stand.
This is the same crowd that spent four years under Biden turning our border into a welcome mat for cartels, human traffickers, and anyone else who wanted to waltz into America illegally. Now they're shocked - SHOCKED - that Americans voted for someone who actually believes in enforcing immigration law.
Tennessee deserves better than politicians who put illegal aliens ahead of American citizens. The question is: will voters remember this pathetic display come election day?
