It’s because they’re still butthurt from 2016.

No such thing as an undocumented worker they are illegal aliens. The problem is that illegal aliens present very authentic looking fake or stolen SS numbers to work so until e-verify is mandated across the board the employers can be fooled. It has been the Democrats that refuse to pass a mandated e-verify. Of course there are those who do know that they are hiring illegal aliens also but most of those pay them in cash. How do you stop that?

Let's deter as many as we can at the border in the meantime with good physical barriers that have already proven to stop 80% of them from getting into our country in the first place. They aren't all looking for jobs anyway. Give birth to an anchor or two and they don't have to work. Certainly criminals and those from known terrorist countries aren't looking for jobs.

But I'll tell you what baffles the mind. Trump actually seems to be THE WORST president on immigration we've had in a while, both legal and illegal. He can't stuff 'em in here fast enough. Gee, one would almost think he was a Trojan horse.

And let's not forget who set the stage for the current situation: The patron saint of Republicans, Ronald Reagan, with his "amnesty". Yeah, yeah, I know, Teddy Kennedy and all that, but Reagan didn't have to go along and sign it. But he did, and that should tell you something about where Republican politicians stand on immigration.

With that said, the real culprit over the years in terms of immigration is CONgress, on both sides of the aisle. They created the laws that have brought about this mess and have done nothing about it.

Question for Trump supporters: When you voted for Trump, did you realize you were voting for Jared and Ivanka? Did you? I sure didn't.
How in the world can you claim that Trump has been the worst on both legal and illegal immigration? What do you even mean by that? Unless you have been living under a rock you would know that Trump has been the strongest president when it comes to illegal immigration.

Reagan lived to regret signing that amnesty because the Democrat controlled congress promised to secure the border but they didn't and yes that did set the stage for millions more to come. It was a big mistake!

I agree, congress needs to work together to end this problem along with our stupid asylum policies but it has been the Democrats that have been sympathizers to both groups so they don't want to end these problems. They don't want to offend the ethnocentric Hispanic citizen voter and they want the flow of future voters to continue so they can stay in power forever.

Illegals should be caught and deported ASAP. No hearings, just plain deported. But since we can't do that, ICE should catch and then release them in sanctuary cities.

Trump never was going to allow Illegals to be released by ICE into cities. It was his way to make a statement about the utter hypocrisy of Sanctuary Cities, and Sanctuary States. It worked brilliantly. Trump is playing Chess, the Dems and Media are playing idiocy.

Fly 'em to Hawaii and dump them there. That way they can't easily migrate to non-sanctuary areas.

No. They should make them apply for asylum in their home country. But since that apparently goes against the law and we are forced to let them apply at a port of entry and we are not permitted to keep them in detention centers until their hearing I'm not sure what else we can do.

Are u in favor of ICE releasing 1000's of illegals into US cities?


No.

But since Democrat-supported laws and court cases make it necessary, I strongly agree with President Trump's new policy of releasing them only in cities that the Democrats have proudly proclaimed to be "Sanctuary Cities"... until the illegal aliens show up there.

Yes, President Reagan said his biggest regret as president was granting amnesty and then trusting Congress to deliver on border security. It didn’t happen then, and it’s not going to happen now if we do this in the wrong order.

We should be bussing these poor immigrants to every sanctuary city awaiting their "hearing".
