That is one accurate term. Migrant is also accurate and it doesn’t feel like a punch in the gut to a lot of people I want to reach. — PolitiTweet.org

@brandondarby The accurate term is illegal alien.

No, not misleading. I’d agree that “undocumented” is inaccurate and I’d also agree that using “migrant” for smugglers is inaccurate, but using “migrant” for people coming illegally to live or work? It’s an appropriate usage just as is “illegal.” I choose “migrant” here. https://t.co/umxF2GV0Jj — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll use “migrant” when I think it’s appropriate and I don’t really care if you like it or not. — PolitiTweet.org

@brandondarby So you want to obfuscate the truth like the rest of the media. Good to know.
