That\u2019s why. Their message to you was, \u2018I\u2019m an American now. I\u2019m here. Be my lawyer, not the lawyer for the migrants showing up in my backyard.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Maher went on to criticize the Democrats\u2019 continued use of the term \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/ive-never-met-a-latinx-van-jones-says-the-way-liberals-talk-is-just-weird\/\">Latinx<\/a>\u201d despite polls indicating that the vast majority of Hispanic voters dislike the term. \u201cAOC keeps defending it, saying, \u2018Gender is fluid.
