    Who said it’s bad? I’m responding to the idea that blacks like trumps immigration policies. Doesn’t seem they’d also like more illegals dumped in their cities would they?

    Maybe you should go back and read what I originally quoted. You seem to be arguing against the wrong person.

    I’ll start over.
    Won’t this policy piss off the black voters who liked his old immigration policy?

    I did say drop them right off at the welfare office right? Savings on deportation courts, housing, and enforcement in California might do more than just offset costs in welfare. I'll be dead & buried before achor babies are old enought to vote. And if an illegal has the money to buy a home in my neighborhood, he's pretty affluent. << Look ... turns out I'm a progressive elitist! ::):

    A couple of boot lickers don't speak for most black folks.

    I have no clue. I guess it depends on the individual. I would think it would have more local ramifications because this policy would literally give these city govts what they want, more illegals.

    No, they'll support him to get rid of illegals. See - if he can get rid of them, they won't be dumped in their cities.

    I don't see boot lickers.

    I see patriotic Americans who aren't bound to the democrat party chains.

    Start by forgetting cities. California ... OK? Trump got ZERO electoral votes in California. Even if 100% of black Ca. voters are either happy or sad ... makes ZERO difference. ICE needs to dump every illegal they catch in California. South central, Napa ... makes no difference.

    Black Jobs Matter
    [​IMG]

    Evidence adduced before the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights shows that immigration accounts for 40% of the 18-percentage-point decline in black employment rates over the last several decades--the bulk of the decline occurring among black males. That’s hundreds of thousands of blacks thrown out of work, hundreds of thousands who can’t support their families without taxpayer assistance.

    The evidence adduced by the Commission shows that not only does illegal immigration depress the employment levels of low-skilled Americans, it drives down the wages for available jobs. For example, an economist for the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta estimated that as a result of the growth of undocumented workers, the annual earnings of an actual documented worker in Georgia in 2007 were $960 lower than they were in 2000. In the leisure hospitality sectors of the economy, the wages were $1,520 lower.

    A $960 annual decrease in wages may not seem like much to some members of Congress, but as President Obama observed when he signed the extension of the payroll tax cut in 2012, an extra $80 a month makes a big difference to many families. It means $80 more towards rent, groceries and the cost of gasoline. Besides, why should American workers suffer any decline in their wages because of illegal immigration?

    Obama had a lot more black voters, when you say racist things like Trump has and then get black voters.... it makes the news

    be like calling Mexicans rapists and then getting a Mexican-American voter to support you

    a Jew supporting Hitler woudl make news too

    a Jew supporting a man who said people chanting "blood and soil, jews will not replace us" are "fine people" would make news too

    It's making those responsible for attracting illegal immigrants pay the price for it, rather than cities who do not want them. Why should the rest of the country suffer the effects of illegal immigration?

    1. Do you think they’ll be locked in these cities? Unable to leave?
    2. According to the OP it’s going to hurt trump with black voters.

    It will hurt the city leadership, not Trump.

    We of course should not. But that is frustrating news to apologists like elected democrats.

    Here, in Florida, I've noticed firsthand a gradual shift in low-skill jobs from blacks to Hispanics, especially in the hotel industry (maids) and groundskeeping (lawn services.)
