The ones he cut benefits to. The guys coming home with PTSD and no real support. The aliens that were promised citizenship, and then deported after doing their stint. He’s also a draft dodging dude who threw our own government service workers under the bus so he could be nice to Mr. Putin, whom he owes money or something.
He’s not a good man. He just sometimes says what people want to hear.
Where was your "He's not a nice man" about Obama when his admin cut VA funding and let that place run wild with scandal after scandal as vets wait on suicide hotlines to eventually just kill themselves? Your faux outrage fools nobody but yourself.
Call your reps and demand they pass E-Verify. What do you want Trump to do, put out another EO demanding it with penalties?
It was the Dems that blocked e-verify the last time. Under another topic a poster gave many examples of ICE cracking down on the employers lately. Maybe the person you are replying to practices selective reading?
The US is a rich country it should just grant citizenship to those willing to live work and pay taxes. The USA was built by immigrants and slaves not rich capitalists I say grant them citizenship as long as they are willing to work pay taxes.
What will be the environmental effects of having 1 billion people in the United States by the end of the century, particularly when most will live in the part of the country that is already running out of water?
What will be the economic effects on native-born poor Americans who must compete with low-skilled immigrants for work?
I agree with Trump on his immigration policy, including the wall, except for the lottery.
We would be just like Canada if we went to a totally merit-based system. There would be no hope for poor people in the world. And it keeps the pressure for illegal immigration.
So I would actually keep the lottery at a low level, just eliminate the diversity aspect, and of course, they still have to meet other requirements.
It took our family 12 years of waiting to immigrate from Latin America. My parents being refugees lived in four countries and never learned to read or write in any language. He worked constantly as a carpenter....and all the three kids graduated from elite public universities. So there should be some room in America for people like me.
But there is no doubt that immigration today is way to high and does need to be limited.
Why is that our problem? That is what im having a hard time reading from everyones post. Why do we WANT poor people who have no skills or anything to offer? You bring in enough, you will bring the rest of us down to help cover their living and medical. Must be nice to be poor and be given everything, and expected to do so from the wealthier individuals. Thats right?

It's the liberal left that want all these poor immigrants in our country. They are looking at future Democrat voters so they can stay in power forever. As for illegal aliens the same applies as they want amnesty and citizenship for them and are pandering to their ethnocentric citizen voters also.
They are also just as guilty of wanting the cheap labor as the GOP is.

Aside from putting children in cages, losing track of hundreds of children, making 6-year-old children sign documents they cannot read or understand, sending small children into a courtroom on their own, separating families, deporting people who have lived in the US for up to 30 years and have businesses, pay taxes and employ people, no border issues at all. But that wall is dog whistle that will most likely not be built.
And Trump has to make some decisions about where he is getting all this money from after massively decreasing tax revenues and bribing the farmers.
Choice between the wall and the US infrastructure--I'll go for the infrastructure which our country desperately needs.
What about penalties for the companies that HIRE the illegals?
Both parties are owned by said companies, so it will never happen. Privatize the profits from cheap illegal labor, and let the taxpayers bear all the costs.
Wait, there's a plethora of unfilled jobs in our impoverished cities for unskilled workers? Where is that happening?
BTW, what effect does bringing in hundreds of thousands of unskilled workers have on wages for unskilled workers already here?
BTW, from where are we going to get all of the water for the 1 billion people who will be here by the end of the century?
