I would bet you have no explanation for why the Right didn't take action when it controlled both Congress and the White House but now attempts blaming the Left for its own lack of action.
It's called "Never Trumpers" who got in the way. We got rid of one them, unfortunately too late. It wasn't for the lack of Trump trying. And now, it would be nice if the Dems would quit playing butthurt in Congress and do the job that people want them to do - get rid of illegal aliens in this country.
Every one on this forum has immigrant relatives in their present or past, isnt it convenient your forefathers were allowed to immigrate to the USA without vilification,
It wasn't "the USA" when people started coming over. It was not a country. How many times must this be explained to the left?
I would bet the majority of these migrants are on some type of government assistance. This is unsustainable it will eventually bankrupt us financially. But we don’t have an immigration emergence.

It was quite a lot of different nations at the time, but still it didn't stop people arriving there, i don't think they asked permission most of the time either.
Why? Because the left is 100% on board with unchecked mass immigration...illegal or otherwise. Granted, the Republican party historically and until very recently shared some of the blame. There are still plenty of globalist, establishment RINOs in the party that have no problem with illegal immigration and the cheap labor it provides them.
The Tea Party movement tried desperately tried to raise the issue of illegal immigration, out of control government spending, the federal debt, etc but were vilified and written off in the media as racist, xenophobic, white nationalist, etc rabble rousers. They sprang up at the end Bush's presidency as a direct result of his disastrously expensive Iraq war and financial crisis and ramped up even more when it became Obama was going to continue spending on new government program after new government program like there was no tomorrow.
The more pertinent question is why did Democrats who are now mostly supportive of new proposals (GND and Medicare for All) that will add TRILLIONS of dollars in new annual spending to the federal budget draw a line in the sand over a relatively tiny spending request of $5.7 billion for wall construction?
They're say they support the gamble of spending $4 trillion (with a T) extra a year on the GND that isn't guaranteed to work or solve the climate problem but claimed a $5.7 billion for a wall "won't work" or is a "waste of money". Talk about ironic

I am not an immigrant, but my wife and a lot of my family are. None receive nor ever received any of the welfare/social assistance, all came here legally.
