    Lol. Tearing apart families and communities must be done, exacerbating the Central American gang problem is unavoidable, spending untold billions on something that can be most charitably described as a partial solution is the most important thing in the world -- but requiring businesses to use a free government service to make sure they are compliant with the law is too tough and not practical. What a joke.

    Damn, I’m actually with Trump on his want to facilitate infrastructure spending. Problem is, with the current spending deficit, pushing this now will never fly.

    If the left could stop lying... that would start for solving the crisis. Honest discussion is needed and exagerating everything is making things worse.

    Does the right lie too or is it just the left?

    He is rich and knows the right people?

    Who are you to question his qualifications? You haven’t been bred to lead and lack the proper experience and genetics.

    Seriously, don’t question. Just accept that you don’t understand how to lead. Let those made to rule, rule.

    The Trump administration on immigration reform isn’t sincere. It is a dog whistle.

    It is too bad, because I actually support merit based immigration being more of a priority and those illegals in the USA long term need a path to citizenship.

    Lol, we need some good, honest discussion, so let's kick things off by accusing others of being compulsive liars.

    1. Does Trump actually think Mexico can remedy illegal immigration?
    2. Does Trump actually think Mexico will be more inclined to remedy illegal immigration because of tariffs?
    3. Why should Mexico stay in the still-unratified USMCA when their counterparty doesn't respect the spirit of the free trade agreement?

    It's the art of the deal. You aren't thinking 10 steps ahead.

    Most of the things in that 2013 bill were things that Trump supports now. The big exception would be normalization of current illegal immigrants.

    Customs and Border Protection cannot hire enough agents to fill the slots currently allotted. They cannot fill 2,000 vacancies let alone 20,000.

    How many climate refugees will fit in Greenland once it melts? It could be the new world power by 2100.

    He doesn't need qualifications. Daddy bought a building to get him into Harvard. Jarret's daddy was shady/criminal enough and rich enough to be a match for Ivanka. . So perfect. Could it have been an arranged marriage between the families?
