"Replacement theory" is bafflegab

 I've never understood the racist "replacement theory" being used by the GOP to attack refugees. Apart from being overtly racist, it doesn't make sense mathematically:

" . . . let's say the U.S. allowed every one of those Haitians to apply for asylum, you wouldn't get kicked out of the country. It's not the way it works. America is not a night club where people have to come out before other people can come in. It's actually a really big country with nearly 330 million people. So a few thousand people are not replacing anyone." Also too: "These people have done one of the most difficult, ambitious things a human being can do. They left their homes at great personal cost and risk. They crossed thousands of miles to a completely foreign land where most don't know anyone and don't speak the language in the slim hope of a better life. Whatever you want to call that, that's the opposite of obedient. Whatever you want to say about the folks showing up in these conditions, these are go getters by definition."
