Both Donald Trump and Joe Biden have come out in support of an amnesty for some number of illegal aliens in the United States — although neither has admitted as much.

Biden, on the other hand, has promised to work with Congress on an amnesty leading to citizenship for nearly 11 million aliens unlawfully present in the United States on his campaign website, with few strings attached.

The number is closer to 20 million. Once these 20 million receive resident alien status (green card) they will petition for family reunification. They will bring in the kids, mom and dad, grandpa and grandma so the number will be closer to 80 million Then they will all go on Obamacare.

Obamacare costs money. They will all apply for Medicaid or , most likely, just use the emergency rooms as free clinics and never pay.

When Biden openly called for amnesty for all these illegals I d=couldn’t help thinking “Is he trying to lose?” Surely, he didn’t think that was a winning position to take.

Rents are falling in areas with great affordability problems due to decreased demand.

We need to stop immigration until every city is affordable.

Those whose parents and relatives cheated need to learn cheating should not pay off.

My mother and her siblings were all fluent in her parents’ language.

[Brian Griffin]

Biden is told what are the politically winning positions. Those become his positions.

“path to citizenship”

Biden clearly wants needy Democratic voters.

Biden’s “Dreamers” are the group of illegals mostly likely to vote Democratic if given amnesty and citizenship.

I never saw Baltimore before my mom drove me down to attend college there.

[Bishop_Malachi]

I’d be surprised if that is a winning position among people who can actually vote.

[Lurkinanloomin]

The number is likely over 30 million.
I will never support amnesty of any kind.

President Trump still needs to commit to the following -

The Deplorables want a Comprehensive Immigration Enforcement bill, missing since 1986 ONE TIME amnesty. Since that amnesty was granted already, a second amnesty is off the table. What remains is the enforcement the Democrats have disallowed since then.

The List of Comprehensive Immigration Enforcement, missing since 1986 goes like this -
1) southern barrier;
2) require eVerify to hire;
3) end all chain migration;
4) birthright per Minor v. Happersett (plural parents);
5) end work visas;
6) 10-year moratorium on all new applications for citizenship (40 years to allow workplace automation effects on downsizing population);
7) Set up an illegal aliens’ victim restitution fund.

Enactment of these provisions will motivate illegal aliens to SELF-deport, and remove colonizadors from our welfare rolls.

My hope: Deport all illegals. No exceptions. I don’t think I’ll get my way, but that is the humane answer. Let’s end illegal immigration and then fix our legal immigration system.
