MSNBC host Joy Reid admonished a Republican guest on Sunday for using a legally correct term to describe illegal immigration because she said the term feels old and she is trying to "change the conversation."
Anti-Trump Republican strategist Evan Siegfried was in the middle of a rant regarding President Trump's proposed border wall when he used the term "illegal alien," a term that apparently is not MSNBC-approved.
"Well, we're going with undocumented immigrants," Reid interjected. "I think we're going to go with that — it's definitely the right — I mean, we're trying to change the conversation around here, right?"
"There's certain terminology even — like 'chain migration' and 'illegal aliens,'" Reid continued. "It's a throwback conversation that does feel like — it feels almost like the '80s."
The legally correct term is "illegal alien," it is not "undocumented immigrant," which is a term that the political left created to "to obscure the illegal actions and conduct of those who violate our immigration laws," The Heritage Foundation notes.
Propagandist Joy Reid says MSNBC is not going to use the term "illegal alien" because it "feels" like a throwback term and they are going to say "undocumented immigrant" instead.

How about plain old "invaders?"
The throwback term is "wetback."
