There is a specific definition of asylum seekers, and that is the designation I am referring to. People fleeing terrorism and death squads, etc. who come to the border, turn themselves over to authorities and ask for asylum. That's legal. The courts can deal with it, I don't really care.

A very different thing than foreigners who illegally sneak in or overstay visas. I thought that was clear. Please do not conflate the two.

Not since that racist Bill Clinton was President .

PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON: “All Americans, not only in the States most heavily affected but in every place in this country, are rightly disturbed by the large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country.

The jobs they hold might otherwise be held by citizens or legal immigrants. The public service they use impose burdens on our taxpayers.

That's why our administration has moved aggressively to secure our borders more by hiring a record number of new border guards, by deporting twice as many criminal aliens as ever before, by cracking down on illegal hiring, by barring welfare benefits to illegal aliens....

I don't have to Conflate the 2, as almost everyone coming here is going to claim asylum whether they are legitimate or not. Why would they not claim Asylum? Wouldn't you? Either way under Obama the number of Asylum seekers went up 1,700 percent, because he encouraged it, as Reported true by the Left leaning Politifact.

Yep. They are pure politicians and would do Anything to stay in power. I'm sure most politicians would, but I would like to think they are the worse.

If she really cared, she would be in favor of enforcement. As long as Latin American countries can pawn off their people to the United States, there is no pressure to reform. They’re second world countries rich in natural resources. There is no reason for them to be in the state they’re in.

I think we all know by now that the S̶o̶c̶a̶l̶i̶s̶t̶ Democrat Party is now the Anti-American party.



They prefer the rights of illegals over that of American citizens.
