When Donald Trump talks about illegal immigration, ending birthright citizenship, and uses the term "anchor babies," it gets a lot of attention from the media and from the Democratic Party, who like the portray the GOP front-runner as racist for his comments. Yet, it was not long ago when some leading Democrats shared the same views about illegal immigrants.

In fact, in 1993, former U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid stood on the Senate floor and bemoaned the fact that the United States was offering social services to children of illegal immigrants because they are granted birthright citizenship.

"If making it easy to be an illegal alien isn't enough, how about offering a reward for being an illegal immigrant? No sane country would do that, right? Guess again. If you break our laws by entering this country without permission and give birth to a child, we reward that child with U.S. citizenship, and guarantee full access to all public and social services this society provides -- and that's a lot of services." - U.S. Sen. Harry Reid

What would today's Democratic Party say about Harry Reid then?
