It would be a lot cheaper for the government to start prosecuting employers who hire them...and Trump could start that tomorrow without any new Congressional actions.
Not all of them come here for jobs.
Best to prosecute the employers who hire them and regulate the border.
I've said many times before, no administration is actually going to "solve" the Mexican illegal immigrant problem because for Big Business it's not a problem at all, it's a goldmine.
All politicians are going to do is to spend taxpayer money on efforts they intend to be futile, and point fingers at the other party.
Trump will be no different, particularly because he hires such labor himself.
Where is your proof that Trump hired any illegals himself or that there were any that were working for him or that he had any knowledge of it?
Then the figures went down. It was higher years ago.
No, it's actually been fairly consistent.

Only the really stupid ones are risking their lives. Some of these people have been deported multiple times and are back up here the same day. In many cases it's simply a trunk ride or walk across to the 8 freeway.
I think you understood the point I was making. Whether it is risking your life, or your freedom people do not illegally cross a border for trivial reasons
