The media and Democratic politicians are trying to ignore Donald Trump’s promise that immigration reform will help Americans — including African-Americans and America Latinos — find jobs in a revived economy.

“The fundamental problem with the immigration system in our country is that it serves the needs of wealthy donors, political activists and powerful, powerful politicians … It does not serve you, the American people,” Trump said on Aug. 31, while shifting the debate away from the establishment’s concern for migrants.

Trump’s speech was immediately derided as “hardline … inflammatory … nativism…. bombast” by Politico, which also printed a claim by an advisor to Hillary Clinton that the speech was Hitlerian. The Hill called the speech “hardline” in the lede, despite the focus on jobs for lower-income American minorities, and it then demoted Trump’s comments about jobs and wages to the tail end of the article. The New York Times called it “incendiary,” and complained he did not say what would happen to foreign migrants after they went home.

“Fact-checkers” for the Washington Post and the Associated Press just ignored Trump’s focus on jobs and wages, and instead nitpicked at subsidiary pieces of Trump’s speech.

The New York Times’s chief immigration reporter didn’t even use the words “wages” or jobs” in her report on the speech.

Numerous aides to Hillary Clinton also lashed at the speech, while avoiding Trump’s promise of support for lower-income, lower-skilled Americans workers, such as the African-Americans in riot-scarred Milwaukee. The social-media director of the Clinton campaign, Emmy Bengtson, for example, just shook with horror:

As a non-immigrant, I'm absolutely horrified and shaking right now. This isn't who we are. https://t.co/UbNSciaSyb — Emmy Bengtson (@EmmyA2) September 1, 2016

Unlike the Democrats and the establishment media, Trump led his speech with a renewed focus on jobs and wages for ordinary Americans — not on payoffs for politicians, employers and investors, nor on promised benefits for migrants.

“When politicians talk about immigration reform, they usually mean the following, amnesty, open borders, lower wages … [but] it should mean improvements to our laws and policies to make life better for American citizens,” Trump said.
