So as long as the father stays in Mexico, it's good?

Yes, we do! Alienate Mexico? Why are they allowing their poor, unskilled and uneducated to invade our country taking our jobs, taxes and resources? You have it a** backwards they are alienating us not the other way around. Their citizens here illegally are costing us over $100 billion a year but we should be concerned about alienating them?

Don Jr, Ivanka, and Eric were born to a noncitizen mother.
LOL! So because it's on the Internet this is supposed to be right, even though it's at odds with how most living, breathing Americans use the term when discussing this topic. It is illegal aliens who fear deportation the most and have the most incentive to drop an anchor. In the case of Ivana Trump, why would a legal immigrant--who was a business woman in her own right--have to drop an anchor?

Dictionary.com has their own definition as well, and it includes being illegal. Anchor baby | Define Anchor baby at Dictionary.com

a term used to refer to a baby born to an undocumented mother in a country where the baby becomes a citizen at birth, especially when the birth is planned to facilitate eventual legal residency for the family.

DACA recipients don't vote because they aren't US Citizens.

You keep repeating this same old BS even though I have addressed this error? Again, illegal aliens don't come here skilled. WTH is wrong with you? Again, just what are these unfilled jobs that Americans lack skills in?

True, but the Democrats see them and their parents as being future citizens that will vote Democrat.

Let me ask you, how many americans are willing to mow lawns, do landscaping, shovel snow and other manual labor jobs. There are plenty of these jobs out there for them. But these aren't skilled jobs.

Who do you think were doing all those jobs before millions of cheap illegals flooded our border?

They can return to their homelands and apply to come back legally as legal immigrants do. If we need them we can allow them to come back by following the legal channels. No jumping ahead of the line or bypassing the legal process. The process doesn't begin on our soil.
