Montana Republican Congressional Candidate: If Immigration Isn't Halted, GOP Faces Extinction-Level
On Wednesday evening, candidates for Montana’s lone seat in the House of Representatives gathered to debate the nation’s “hot topics” one last time before next Tuesday’s vote.
One of the candidates, Drew Turiano, spoke candidly about the dangers he believes immigration poses to the future of conservatism, generally, and the Republican Party specifically.
“We should have a moratorium on all immigration to this country or — according to all the data — it will be the end of the Republican party and conservatism in ten years or less,” he began.
“Most immigrants who come to America,” he said, “are big government people, so they’re going to support the party of big government — the Democrats. They’re not going to support the party of small government — the Republicans.”

Last year, Turiano called for “another Operation Wetback,” referring to an Eisenhower-era program that deported over 1.4 million illegal immigrants. President Eisenhower, Turiano said, “repatriated them along with their American-born children. President Eisenhower did that, it was called Operation Wetback. I think America needs another Operation Wetback.”
