How about policies that facilitate illegal immigration like, say, issuing illegal immigrants driver's licenses? In some cities, there are proposals to allow them to vote.
nobody did that
Do you live in the US?
then you have no idea what it would take and the damage it would cause.
SoCal, and no one ever ignored the border.
There we differ.
If we're not ignoring immigration law enforcement, why are there over 11 million undocumented immigrants in the country and why are there people -- like you -- who say "i see no benefit to deporting people?" You are literally arguing that we should not enforce immigration law while also arguing no one advocates for ignoring immigration law.
I'll certainly give way to your expertise in that area.S
So much easier to make up stuff that way.
Because without a real plan to replace these workers all this will do is crush the economy. Why does MAGA not want to address this part?
Right wing logic=every grey issue is black and white until Trump changes his mind again.
And, as we've seen, that's over several decades with LOTS of them who were students or tourists or workers who overstayed their visa.
You're conflating an objective with the plan to achieve that objective, they are two different things.
Enforcing the rule of law helps everyone who does not break the law.
I agree. Overstaying a visa is, or so I've read, the leading cause of illegal immigration.
A plan with out a way to deal with the consequences is just a stupid idea.
Trump has a plan. It's not always optimal, but at least he's making a determined effort to deal with the problem. For the most part, I support what he's done thus far, and the gnashing of teeth from the left was going to happen even if Trump's plan were perfect.
A plan without dealing with the consequences is the plan of an idiot.
I notice that these policies have nothing whatsoever to do with the actual border itself.
What "plan" would you find acceptable?
You should to expand your thinking and not be so literal. When you hear conservatives say "open border policies" you can read "open immigration policies."
So they didn't force their way in and followed the legal protocol, eh?
So much for all of those fake claims that ICE isn't following the law!
