During a discussion about the sheer volume of illegal aliens who have raped and killed Americans since arriving in the country, an MSNBC host appeared more offended by the use of the term “illegal” than by the crimes themselves.
The discussion was taking place between former RNC chairman Michael Steele, who somehow has sidestepped into being an MSNBC co-host, and Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts.
The pair were talking about Donald Trump’s vow to instigate mass deportations, with the justification that many who have come to the country illegally are committing crimes.
The other co-host, Symone Sanders-Townsend, attempted to downplay that reality by quoting some study or other from three years ago.
After Sanders-Townsend insisted she was “just giving the numbers,” Roberts countered “Well, what do you tell the parents of those people, those young girls that are being killed? This is absurd. The preponderance of these folks, Michael, are male…”
Steele interjected and asked, “What is the difference between an illegal immigrant who, unfortunately, engages in that activity…” with Sanders-Townsend then interrupting and stating “we don’t like that, I want to be clear, we don’t use the term ‘illegal’ for undocumented indviduals.”
Steele then pathetically corrected himself, “yes, undocumented individuals,” while Roberts asserted “they’re illegal aliens.”
Watch:
We wouldn’t want to hurt the feelings of the ‘undocumented individuals’ who are raping and killing people, including children now would we.
Gotta be sensitive to those criminal aliens, who are r*ping and m*rdering American mothers and little girls every day.

This ridiculous use of semantics to deflect from the horrible truth is a Democrat talking point. Recall when doddery Biden used the term ‘illegal’ to describe Laken Riley’s killer and leftists got offended.
Biden had to go on an apology spree, and the story became about that, rather than the fact that an illegal alien murdered an innocent young American woman.
This is the demented mentality of leftism.
God forbid we insult all the illegal alien child rap*sts out there

Notice how they’re trying to change the language to soften the blow? Don’t give in. They’re illegal aliens of illegal immigrants. Whichever floats your boat.

Nope.
Symone is wrong.
They are illegal aliens. That is the legal term.
They are not immigrants of ANY kind.
They are not undocumented – that’s asinine. They are criminal illegal alien invaders and every single one needs to be deported.— Morgana Le Faye *Patriot *America 1st* (@Keltic_Witch) June 23, 2024
Michael Steele is such an embarrassment. He’ll say literally anything for a paycheck.
The difference is they shouldn’t be here in the first place, Mike. All of the murder victims of illegal aliens should still be alive.

Don’t let them continue owning language. Use illegal, because that’s way they are.
There’s no amount of shaming or gaslighting you can do to prevent you from using it or to disprove that reality.
