“stop all medical, food stamp and free money freebies” That and criminals and DUI drivers is where the focus should be.
It has been a tactical mistake to focus on those who work and don’t cause problems. Conservatives have always been for people who work. Conservatives have always been for upward mobility, which is what most illegals are about.
It is not practical to focus on 11 (or 50) million. That is no focus at all.
Focus on the 10% (1.1 to 5 million) who are undesireables.
The reality is that the 10% of bad apples account for 99% of the problems with illegals. That is a winning tactical focus that a majority of Americans support.
But 70% of Americans want to keep the 90% of illegals who cause no problem.
(Incidentally, immigrants from Russia, Georgia, Ukraine, Chechnya, Serbia, and a few other ex-commie countries have a much higher percentage of undesireables than Mexicans.)
Okay. But I would still like to see the scumbags we send to the District of Corruption chosen by Americans and not foreigners.

The 70% you quote is likely the result of a poll sampling of the opinions of a small group of who-knows-who. Be that as it may, the 70% are apparently ignorant of the need for allegiance to this nation as a qualifier for entry and citizenship to ensure this nation continues as one. Those illegal entrants would have no qualms allowing those following them to commit the same illegal act by entering. Border? What border? No border and no enforcement of the black letter of the law and there is no nation! Continue along your current line of thinking and you might as well remove the “No Trespassing” signs from your property as well as leaving your doors and windows open to all comers. Limits have a purpose.
