It would turn out to be pro capitalism debate vs anti capitalism.

The most amusing thing about the Trump train-wreck and the chaos and damage it is causing for the Republican Party is that the GOP brought this all on themselves. They welcomed into the party the unhinged xenophobic nativists who are now enraptured with Trump. And they willfully associated themselves with Trump when he was engaged in his laughably idiotic birtherism and they fell all over themselves to get his support and endorsement in 2012, thereby indelibly linking the party with Trump.

He is Frankenstein's monster. They created him. Now they cannot figure out how to stop him as he rampages through the GOP village.

And the odds that they'll look in the mirror and learn anything from this sad, sordid, and self-damaging fiasco? The same as the odds of Trump actually winning - zero.

A xenophobe has a fear of strangers. Just who is a stranger to our country that isn't here legally?

I think it would be an interesting debate with each showing the weaknesses on both sides.

Lets face it, not everyone can be a CEO, sill need someone to do the grunt work.
Part of the problem with sending the criminals back is that their home countries won't keep them in jail. This has been a huge problem with criminals from El Salvador. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_El_Salvador

If you want gangbangers all over the USA, keep deporting them.
