Immigration has been the centerpiece of Trump's Presidency, with his ongoing battle for border wall funding, which he won when the Supreme Court allowed Trump to divert $2.5 billion in Pentagon funds for border wall construction.
Looks like its paying off politically....
Quote:
At one point in the speech, Trump said Democrats’ greatest “betrayal” was supporting “open borders’ and Democratic lawmakers “care more about illegal aliens than they care more about their own constituents."
Carter, president of communications consulting firm Maslansky + Partners, said the voter-reaction analysis showed independents tracking closer to Republicans than Democrats in response to those statements.
She said Republicans graded those comments with an A+ and Democrats rated them with an F, but independents graded them with a B-.
This is true in my case. I typically haven't been a red side fan, but seeing illegals sucking up the freebies first hand along with Trumps attack on our lopsided trade situation with China has me choosing them as the least-worst at this time.
I'm not seeing a lot of support among indies I know for the Democrats bending over backwards for illegals. To me the behavior seems disloyal and self-serving. Then again I'm not overly fond of the Republicans for separating families either. Both sides suck on this issue. It's time for the two parties to work out a compromise on immigration. Not that I'm expecting that to happen any time soon; they both gain by perpetuating the status quo.

Where do you see illegals sucking up the freebies.
I have lived in Georgia with lots of illegals and they run from the freebies. They do not want to be put into any system -- even if it is for a hand out.

Nobody has ever disputed that coming with out approval is a crime. But for Gods sake work on fixing the right way to come in! The policies are antique. 2 stop employers from hiring !!! 3 stop getting high! And last stop trying to be slave owners ! ( human trafficking )
Usually 55% or so oppose Trump with approvals around 35 to 40%.
Quinnipiac currently has 35% approval 58% opposed
Maybe less, but I haven’t seen a legitimate poll yet (and I don’t consider this to be legit) where Indy’s backed Trump.
