Latin American migrants eager to enter the United States but held in Mexico are praying for President Trump’s election defeat in 2020, believing that a Democratic president will open the borders again.
“I want Trump out,” said Honduran Katherine Cabrera, who is being held in Tapachula, Mexico, with her baby.
“Once Trump is defeated, and the Democrats take over, things are going to get better,” added El Salvadoran Brenda Ramos.
The comments from Ramos and Cabrera and others were included in a Center for Immigration Studies border report on the attitudes held by migrants under the U.S.-Mexico initiative to stop unchecked illegal immigration.
The report found that instead of staying home, thousands of immigrants are “gambling” that it is worth staying in Mexican migrant camps in hopes Trump and his policies will go away.
Todd Bensman, the center’s senior national security fellow, wrote, “Dozens of politically woke migrants, like Honduran Wilson Valladaras, recently told CIS their decisions to stay in Mexico were predicated on the Trump-defeat gamble. Valladaras said he would wait for his Mexican asylum approval, move to Tijuana ‘until Trump leaves,’ and then cross over the U.S. border when the Democrats undo his policies because ‘right now, the Americans will throw you back’ to Mexico.”
One of the reasons illegal crossings and apprehensions are down is because of the administration’s “remain in Mexico” program, part of the “Migrant Protection Protocols” that requires asylum seekers to wait in Mexico for a green light from the U.S.
Bensman talked to the official heading the program and said that some immigrants her department is processing will still try to enter the U.S. even if Trump stays.
“None want to stay in Mexico; this is just their first chance to get into the United States, of course,” said Alma Delia Cruz, the head Comision Mexicana de Ayuda a Refugiados. She added to Bensman, “I don't know what's on the minds of these people exactly, but the threats from Trump can't deter them from eventually getting into the U.S.”
To bad,so sad.....NOT!
This stuff would make great campaign ads...
For Trump.
These people are a disease. They invade the host, destroy the host...and move on to the next host.
Duh..... well of course!
I want illegals out.
anyone care to bet against the fact that
democrats will opt ... to give each invader
10 (or more) votes in the next election.
But, Chica, stop and think...with President Trump out of office, the US will go back to NO GROWTH, NO EXPANSION, NO JOBS, AND NO WELFARE...with no money to finance it.
So, come on in, get a Dim president and live in “Detroit all over the Country.”
You will be praying to get back to Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvadore.
And nobody to save you.
This woman is the perfect example of weaponized immigration. Her only goal is to extract wealth from the US and return it to her family and country of origin.
JoMa
Cabrona.
And stupid people continue to believe that unchecked illegal immigration is about compassion for the poor brown people and concern that they have a chance for a better life.
Dumbasses. It's about exploitative labor and changing the demographic to voting all Democrat, which gives them more electoral votes and more Reps in Congress.
And the memories of people who remember what you took from them. The future is gonna be racist as hell.
“I want to live in America”
Home of the freebee
Land of the brave illegal
I want illegals OUT!
I pray illegals are out.
Don’t worry, he’s not YOUR President!
I want them out.
I want illegal aliens to stay in their sh*thole of origin.
It’s about long term population replacement.
It’s about a communist Pope acting to regain what was lost by Spain
