SEAN HANNITY (HOST): I think ultimately -- I think Democrats -- and a lot of people would say this is the “great replacement" theory. No, it's not. What it is I think ultimately of Democrats and it's already been proposed by a number of them.

If they offer something of great value, it doesn't --- they're coming from all over the world, so we're not -- what we're talking about here is a plan to ultimately provide a path to citizenship, and you know that many other countries sell citizenship.

I mean, you could pay a fortune and become a citizen of Portugal or Malta or Belize or Antigua or any of these other countries, very hard to become a citizen of New Zealand or Australia, but you can pay for it. It's millions of dollars and in some cases, you can pay $150,000 and be a citizen, get a passport, the whole bit, and have joint or dual citizenship in other countries.

But if they become the party that offers this, the most highly coveted passport that the world can offer and they give it away free -- "Well, I hope you'll vote for us after we gave you that." I mean, to me, it's something of great value.
