it is literally a fake issue, republicans love to say obama cared about it so let me be clear, it was also a fake issue then, but even if it wasn’t the republican narrative falls apart since somehow obama built cages and deported sm people but immigration was also the worst it ever was in 2016 (until now ofc, funny how fake issues work)

Me when the work visa program is actively screwing over American workers and illegal immigration is causing further crime with drug crises, rapes and murders. Yes, yes. It’s okay if these things happen as long as the person who is doing them isn’t American or white. (Sarcasm.)

Obama did deport people but he followed the law about it. He offered immigrants safe travel out of the country. Donald trump is not following the law about it and instead sending his new gestapo to take them to a maximum security prison in El Salvador. THATS what we’re upset about dumbass

You are lying. Trump and his administration have said view crime as simply coming over illegally, which is why they are targeting the entire undocumented population regardless of genuine crimes committed. Obamas administration went after violent offenders and people who newly entered the country. Both did separate kids which is extremely fucked, however no they did not have the same mission. One went after violent criminals the other went after workers who had been here for 20+ years

okay here: the Judical system said it’s unconstitutional and to bring them back and trump said NO which he legally cannot do.

No need, here’s the solution: document them. The immigration system is not doing its job to help immigrants become naturalized it takes many people years to gain citizenship. So if we document undocumented immigrants, we can have a plan to naturalize them, we can see where they are, their history, criminal record, and all of this is cheaper than mass deportation :))

So him managing to deport 7 million people less than in 2000 somehow means he continued to break the system?

You realize that the immigrant flow into the country from 2010-2019 led to a 2% increase in wages right? “From 1980 to 2019, the researchers estimated that an increase of 10% in immigration was associated with wage increases of 0.2% for full-time U.S.-born workers and 0.3% for all U.S.-born workers. From 2000 to 2019, a 10% increase in immigration corresponded to wage increases of 0.1% for full-time U.S.-born workers and 0.2% for all U.S.-born workers.” Per American Immigration Council research

Yeah I’m sorry but I’m gonna need to see some sort of source if that is your claim.

I’m talking about legal workers under the work visa program. Illegal immigrant workers are just taking the worst positions and are exploited under the table. This isn’t the case with the work visa program where 70% of visas are going to someone who is Indian or Chinese, incredibly disproportionate representation of those applying for visas.
