NATIVISM

SYSTEM IS

BROKEN

Immigrants take jobs away from real Americans

More and more, I don't identify with what America has become

When jobs are scarce, employers should prioritize hiring people of this country over immigrants

To fix America, we need a strong leader willing to break the rules

Traditional parties and politicians don't care about people like me

In America today, the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer
