Huh??? We've had illegal immigration for centuries. Their kids and grandkids are citizens, however, and have every right to vote.

...and soon it will be great grandkids.

Now several 10's of millions are likely affected directly by illegal immigration with family members that were once illegal, or currently illegal. That number grows by the day, and it won't be all that long before it is 60-70 or 100 million. It is crazy to think any significant portion of them will ever be deported. Soon the numbers will truly force Republican into compromise. For their interests it would best to make that compromise now...without compromise on Republican side more and more people will be directly affected by the issue and very few of them will voting Republican. Best chance is to ignore the extremists in the party and to get it over with asap. Drive the hardest bargain reasonably possible because bargaining position weakens the longer it goes.

The census doesn’t differentiate based on legal status however. More illegals=more Congressional representation.

So far-left Dems ignore the Constitution, break the law regarding immigration, bring decay and violence from a lawless border, and your answer is "get over it and compromise and reward the Dems for their treason"

You do understand that half the nation doesn't agree with you and this?, how much longer do you think all those people are just going to sit back and take it?, when the law doesn't apply to one side then it applies to no sides. At some point it will become like Bosnia/Serbia/Croatia. You do understand that millions upon millions are not going accept the nation becoming a one party ruled nation by the Dems as the nation turned into Venezuela 2.0? You do understand that when Dems have the numbers and then end the electoral college, add DC as a state, stack the SCOTUS, allow illegal immigrants to vote, and re-arrange the Constitution if not outright ending it millions upon millions are going to say no?

How are immigrants from third-world counties vetted?

Do we date them a while to really get to know them?

Bill Clinton had it right, as did most moderate Democrats back not that long ago;

No patriots among the democrats or their voters. Time to begin exiling democrats and taking away citizenship when opportunities present.

Always like how those on the far right are ready to take away someone's rights because they don't think the same as them.

Seems more trustworthy and credible than Haggerty and his secret program theory.
