I completely agree that legal immigration needs to be cut back to what it was before the Kennedy immigration bill of 1965.

First things first.
We have to stop the inundation of illegal aliens and stop our government from assisting them.

No the first we need to do is lower the legal immigration numbers. We could stop all illegal immigration tomorrow and the result will be the same electorally. Eventually, the Dems will be the permanent majority party. Legal immigrants can vote. They are entitled to all the benefits of the welfare state. You don't bring in 30 million legal immigrants since 1990 and not expect some consequences.

Legal immigration is a much bigger problem than illegal aliens. Yes, we need to stop the flood of lawbreakers, but we can walk and chew gum at the same time. We must curtail legal immigration. The Brits achieved a political consensus of reducing legal immigration when the slogan, "British jobs for British workers" started to resonate among the voters. We must do the same thing. It is a matter of jobs, which resonate among all Americans including Dem constituencies.
