Because then they WILL be American citizens. And in twisted way, should amnesty pass, all the currently “undocumented” jobs become legal... they can then claim that they ‘created’ all those jobs and gave them to ‘Americans.’

I don't believe by EO can make these 30+ million be “citizens” - he may be able to issue an EO giving them amnesty for breaking the law - doesn't make them citizens and in AZ they still have to be “legal” to take a job. The employer stands to loose his business license if he knowingly hires someone illegally in the country - so what would the newly amnestized person offer up as his ID? He won't have a green card, he won't have a SS card (unless he is committing fraud which hasn't been forgiven). I just don't get what boy king thinks he will accomplish with this other than to make everyone angrier than ever.
