Wants to bar anyone in the country illegally from buying a house or renting an apartment, arguing undocumented immigrants compete with American citizens for scarce housing and drive up prices. Says those properties should belong to American citizens instead.

Warns of an impending socialist revolution, arguing the appeal of "free food, free rent, free housing, free education, free healthcare" is dangerously attractive, and names Bernie Sanders, AOC and Zohran Mamdani as the model to defeat. Says American business runs on free markets and capitalism, not government handouts.
