Won't sign or even offer an e-verify bill.

How can you possibly deny that the Democrats aren't pro-illegal immigration with the list above?
That is priceless. Democrats are in the minority in congress and can't even introduce legislation and Republicans can't get the votes for their own e-verify bill. I swear to God I am not sure how you can say this stuff with a straight face.

I started this thread and I'm not just talking about the last couple years, even when Democrats were in control of both houses of Congress they made no effort to pass e-verify laws or anything even close to that. They did however push DACA and push for blanket amnesty for illegal aliens already in the country.

The congress doesn’t work that way at all. The current majority can’t pass any legislation unless they have near zero defectors. That’s a very hard sell.

On the other hand, did any Democraps vote for the wall in exchange for legalizing the dreamers?

They didn’t.

The very reason that Americans have lost their jobs to illegal aliens is due to the fact that they work cheaper. How is that fair or lawful to hire someone who has no right to be here or work in this country to undercut Americans that way?


How do you know who's working in a restaurant? If you think these greedy restaurant owners are passing any savings on to you by a lower cost meal you are badly mistaken. What they and the rest of the employers who hire illegal aliens do is pass their enormous social costs on to the rest of us.


We can't experience different cultures from those here legally? There is no diversity in illegal immigration anyway as most of them are from only one culture.


Where are you getting the idea that being opposed to illegal immigration while embracing legal immigration is being afraid of someone different? Aren't legal immigrants someone different? You make no sense at all! Hate has nothing to do with opposing illegal immigration it's about our laws and the negative impact they have on Americans. Why don't you stop with your BS as you're looking like a total fool in here!!



You sound....triggered. Stop being a snowflake.

It's real easy when the majority loads a bill with poison pills. Schumer gave Trump the whole wall in exchange for the Dreamers, Trump turned it down.

Trump has nothing positive to run on. Trump needs to have something to yell about to hide the fact he wants to get rid of protections for people with pre-existing conditions.

He scares all his base with nonsense about some Hondurans invading. Give me a break you guys are afraid of family's.

The fact that you would tell us who have experienced our communities and schools destroyed by illegal immigration that it is "hogwash" is plain vile and despicable.

Unless you answer question #1 with links to your own research, you have nothing, therefore you have no business insulting those of us who have had to deal with this problem up close and personal
I am not the one who is claiming that illegal immigrants have “destroyed” literally “hundreds” of communities across the nation. The onus is not on me to support that claim. You, on the other hand, have been totally unable to support it. But at least you have developed some weird obsession over where I live.

So obsessively stalkerish, yet not obsessive enough to rely on tangible statistics. What an unusual combination.

No, they didn't vote for it because that bill was a joke. And by the way, you really make yourself look silly when you feel the need to resort to saying things like: "democraps"

That goes along with Trump's claim of riots in California. All a bunch of alt-right garbage. Made up by the guys picked up for starting the riot in Charlottesville last year.
