He seemed sharp and fully ready to expound upon his points. It seems, to me, like a case of "when bothsiderism goes wrong". It's as if he was trying to make the case that it's wrong for white folks to want to hold onto their status as the country's majority culture and it's also wrong for immigrants to "not be more white"? WTH, Tom? IDK, Cattledog.
