Trump concerned about Illegal immigrants being counted yet he has no problem with them working in meat packing plants.
Since when? There have been several employers caught hiring illegal aliens since Trump took office. He reinstated the workplace raids that Obama ended. Stop the lies!
Too bad there isn't a Cesar Chavez around to talk some sense into people, especially liberals, about how damaging illegal immigration is to American workers.
No one wants to stand up for American workers anymore.

The raids were on the workers did they shut down the plant put the owner in prison. Those owners pay their lobbyist to avoid that. They have billboards in Mexico advertising work in the US.
The reason these companies want illegal labor so they can bust unions out of the industry.
I don't want undocumented (ILLEGAL) people counted in the census or giving states more representation. That's UnAmerican. You can't justify it logically, only politically.
It is in the constitution, the founders intended it to be that way.
What 'you don't want' doesn't matter at that point. You are un-American.
Suddenly The Left is just all about what is, and is not, the law. They lecture the rest of the country, informing us of the founders intent and pointing at what is right and wrong.
But that's just on this one issue. When discussing the second amendment they want to "modernize" the founders intent.
They are mum on the "founders intent" with regard to who should vote, and what qualifications he should have.
They loudly proclaim that "no person should be on the Presidential Ballot unless his tax returns have been submitted", even though no such law exists.
They decry immorality, but only as it applies to the current President. That was not an issue in 1998, when Clinton was President.
"LIAR!" they shriek, but they watched silently as Hillary Clinton and Susan Rice lied about events of national interest.
They were stupidly silent when invaders climbed over a fence illegally to enter the country. But now that they are here, The Left finds those same scofflaws useful in their quest to install a Left Person in The White House.
TDS, it is called.
It makes no sense.

I’m certain some segment of the populace don’t want women to have suffrage, or equal protection, but this isn’t a question of what they want or what their peculiar political fetish may be. The law is clear: count the number of persons and report to Congress for the apportionment process.

This is the perfect example on why Judges should NOT interpret the law
Ummm, that's what judges do, interpret the law. It's their job. It's made harder when other branches either write laws that are incomprehensible, or try to assert that the law says one thing, and people who disagree then have to ask a judge to interpret the law.

Trump doesn't get to do that. The Constitution says the census will be carried out as directed by Congress. It's also pretty clear that everyone in the country is to be counted, and that count is to be used for apportionment of representatives, excluding Indians(that's Native Americans these days) not taxed.
