A quote from Teddy Roosevelt, back when we had unlimited immigration:

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language ... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Surrendering to the PC people that we can't assimilate mexicans, so the only answer is to send them back to mexico is nonsense (because it won't happen). We did assimilation before, and we can do it again. We just need to agree that we have no other good options.

The real enemy are the liberals. As usual.

True, but this two-time Reagan voter, four-time Bush voter is finally beginning to understand that the Country Club Republican, who has secretly despised conservatives like me and my values all along while using the liberal boogey man to push his Country Club Republican Candidates and 'moderate' values on me time after time, is just as much my enemy.
