I'm not sure why that would be interesting I know that my relatives in Norway would never move here, they don't even want to come to the US to visit anymore.

I don't know about that. We have Norwegian relatives reasonably often and my wife's sister and cousins visit Norway repeatedly. The Sister has even learned to speak the language. Last year had a crew come who went off on the sundown Grand Canyon Helicopter tour. My wife could actually qualify as a Norwegian with a parent and all 4 grandparents Norwegians. She is already dual and does not want to go for 3.

No one is motivated to return to Norway however. Fun to visit but too far north and too cold.

Americans are wishing for Norwegian immigrants. You guys don't even get immigrants from Poland haha. Nobody wants to come here anymore besides people from 3rd world countries that still believe lives shown on movies are american reality.

Interesting excerpt from the above...

*********************************
The fast-paced growth of the Latino electorate and the slow or negative growth among non-Hispanic whites will change the voter makeup in the United States by 2020. By then, eligible Latino voters are predicted to make up 14 percent of the electorate, up from 12 percent in 2014. Eligible white voters are projected to decline from 70 percent of the electorate in 2014 to 66 percent in 2020.54
*********************************

think about the effect that will have on the right.

Not much. Since many of those people stick around in blue states that are heavily blue anyway, and whites are exiting those areas, the red areas will get whiter and the blue areas will get bluer.

Right now, the Democrat senators already represent something like 60,000,000 more people than GOP senators, but that's why the concept of a Republic is so beautiful. Even small, less populous states get a say.

Also, as a side note, Trump actually got more votes from people of color than Romney, so demographics do change as well.

Make no mistake: This DACA crisis is Trump's creation, and Trump's fault

That's silly, just look at Nevada, it turned from red to purple to blue primarily because of out migration from California. It's happening all over the west, people trying to escape California politics don't land in Nevada or Colorado mainly because very few people actually sell their house, quit their job and move to another state solely for partisan politics. https://www.npr.org/sections/itsallp...-the-west-blue
