    Based upon the poll that the Washington Times is citing it appears that a majority of the country agrees with Trump on the wall and the amount of illegal immigration into this country. They also want less legal immigration.

    This debate stems from the "Dreamers" and I have lived long enough to remember this talk before about the people that are already here. Until the amount of people streaming into this country is halted, there will always be "Dreamers".

    Take care of Americans in need.

    vs.

    Throw open the doors and inundate the nation with non-Americans who will take from those Americans in need.

    Thanks Democrats for another boomerang to the face.

    Trump told me I'd get tired of winning.

    Mmmm....not there yet. Keep it coming please.

    Let's not forget Crooked Donnie is about about Crooked Donnie and his fellow plutocratic socialists.

    Let's also not forget, if not for lawbreaking employers like Crooked Donnie, this country would not have a
    serious undocumented worker problem.

    The welfare is why there are so many illegal immigrants.

    Cut the welfare and the problem will solve itself. Take away the incentive.

    Interesting
    Not sure what a video about WHITE Christians from TYT of all places has anything. I also find it amusing that you pick on WHITE Christians when they are not even the largest ethnic group for Christians.
    http://www.pewforum.org/religious-l...ians/christian/racial-and-ethnic-composition/

    Based upon this information WHITES are the least in the age groups until they hit 50 and that's still not a lot given the other ethnic groups shown. We do have a race problem in America, but it doesn't appear it's coming from young WHITE Christians......if it is even a Christian problem.....which I doubt.

    Well now.....their anchor babies sure are......and those five kids make Juan and Maria eligible for mucho food stamps. Not to mention the U.S. taxpayer paid for the birth of those five little newly minted USCs. And now we get to pay for their free bi-lingual education and health care for the next 18 years. Meanwhile, when Juan and Maria get ill they trundle down to the local ER and get issued a 'temporary' Medicaid card for their illness. But you're probably right........'illegals' aren't eligible for any 'welfare'........LOL at the ignorance of the American voter on this issue

    Their kids are. In 10 years they'll be sucking us dry. And the process repeats over and over and over.

    “Anchor babies” are US citizens, thus eligible. Illegals are not.

    Their kids, if born on US soil, are US citizens, and thus eligible. Illegals are not.

    Okay. So, how'd illegal immigrants mama y papa pay doc to deliver the dear little dreamer? Is the doctor who got called in the hospital liable for the safety of the delivery? What happens if something goes wrong? Are the illegal immigrants entitled to legal representation? Can they sue? Who is paying for the hospital room? Who is paying for the medical services? Who is paying for the incubator? Who is paying for mom's medical care?

    But if the parents (or mothers at least) hadn't come here illegally to birth their anchor babies in the first place, we wouldn't even be having this conversation.

    Perhaps part of the immigration overhaul should deal with the anchor baby issue. No more automatic citizenship for anchor babies, and you remove one big incentive for illegals to come here.

    Ha. Dreamers. They're illegal immigrants looking for a free meal ticket. Tell it like it is.

    Dreamers go through the immigration line the right way and typically tend to want to earn their dream the right way.

    End of the day, subsidizing illegal immigration causes more of it.

    Consider this picture.
    Worth how many thousands of words
    :roflol:

    immigration200years.0.jpg

    Yes to less immigration.
    Yes to favoring "quality" immigrants vs social service parasites.


    The illegals, get over it.
    Americans do not at heart favor deportation when they know who is getting deported.
    Similar to the view of Congressman. Mine is one of the good ones, you need to replace yours.


    Build the Wall, physical, electronic, 360 degrees with rapid deployment intervention and immediate return to the other side. Strengthen visa enforcement and limit those special ones like for Silicon Valley while qualified American labor exists. etc. And create a proper program for those Agriculture workers from south of the border we depend on for apples, lettuce, etc.
    AND
    Reagan Amnesty everyone inside already.
    Just do it.
    I find it less distasteful than deportation of good, hard working, tax paying people with no police record.


    Too bad Reagan didn't accomplish better border security when his amnesty went into effect.

    The problem is lawbreaking employers like Crooked Donnie who hire undocumented workers.

    That was a subcontractor, like 20 years ago.

    According to the law, Crooked Donnie is still responsible. But as always with Crooked Donnie, the buck stops with everyone but him.

    It was 20 freaking years ago. What did you expect Trump to do, require his subcontractors use e-verify, LOL? Anyhow, this topic has already been beaten to death so I'm not going down the rabbit hole with you. I just get tired of lefties continuing to spread half-truths, spin, and propaganda. Either debate, or sit back and just read the thread. The dumb fluff is just a distraction.
