Oh lordy. Do you understand the process and expense involved in becoming a U.S. Citizen? Do you honestly believe that illegals will be naturalized in 4 years? No way. Research how long it takes someone doing it the right way and how much money it costs. I have friends from India that have been working towards getting a green card that have been here around 8 years. They have been waiting for a green card for over two years now and have spent thousands of dollars on attorney fees. You tell me how an illegal is going to do that? After my friends get a green card it takes an additional year or so to become a citizen, and it could take longer than that.
Once again low information is you enemy.
The left is championing for the rights of illegals because it's in direct opposition to what Trump is trying to do? Again read! Here's something for you to research instead of blindly following spoon fed rhetoric. Did you know that illegal migrants are sent to for profit prisons? Did you know that the first stop for many migrant children is in the only for profit detention center in the U.S.? Did you know that the only for profit migrant detention center in the U.S. is run by Comprehensive Health Services and is owned by Caliburn International? Guess who sits on the board, go ahead take a wild guess. Give up? It's John Kelly, remember him from Trump's administration? Guess how many lobby dollars are spent on behalf of for profit prisons spent on campaign donations.
Look. Trump had two years of Republican controlled Congress and Senate. Why wasn't illegal immigration reform discussed then? Could it be that big business wants them here as well as private prisons and detention centers? Could it be that there's a lot of money to be made from exploiting them?
Trump is our last chance to hold on to the country we love? Do you mean an all white country? Well that's not going to happen. There are many citizens of all colors that are here to stay.
Maybe just maybe we should be following the big money that owns this country that has eroded "we the people" instead of focusing on bigotry and hate, buy hey, fear mongering and hate works great for the look over there president.
Then the legislature should work to make it easier for people in good standing to become legal citizens and adjust the legal immigration amount. This is a legislature issue, not an issue for illegal immigration. I suspect the reason why Congress, regardless of political party, hasn’t addressed the issues is many of them are lawyers. Law firms make money off this and the law industry has strong influence in Congress.
Obviously yes. There’s how many millions voting? Of course somewhere there are people voting multiple times or illegals voting. When I lived in Australia I had American friends who illegally voted in the elections there and it’s markedly harder to do it there than it is here. Now is it ever enough to impact the result? Probably not
Do enough do it to make a difference in any election decided by less than 100 votes?
No
Part of being an illegal is keeping off radar.
Bingo. If you’re here illegally, you try to stay in the shadows. You don’t do something stupid like illegally voting to bring attention on yourself. Also, your legal relatives tend to undervote as well. That’s a big reason why legal Latinos undervote. They are reluctant to do anything that can bring more heat on their relatives here illegally.
you bet they are along with dead people and snowbirds
But are snowbirds predominantly Democrat? If they’re primarily older white voters, they’re more likely to be Republicans. And while there may more be dead people on the rolls than there should be ( there will always be some) due to shoddy follow up, there’s little to no evidence of dead voters being a systemic problem.
