Yep, sounds about right.
If immigrants come for the jobs, they are evil. If the poor or middle class fight for living wages or strong unions or anything for themselves, they are lazy and engaging in class warfare.
But if a company exploits illegals for cheap labor below what they could legally get and uses them to lower the wages, benefits, unions, and other worker protections across the board that is just wholesome, all american, good business sense. Same as when they or their owners lobby to make sure they pay insanely low tax rates proportionally lower than their workers while taking him the lions share of the profits.
But heaven forbid the poor and working class try to protect medicare, medicaid, social security, food stamps or any of that stuff. Only moocher need that, even if they are working full time jobs but the employers are legally allowed to pay below living wages, that automatically makes that worker a lazy mooch.

Apparently, geography isn't a strong suit.
The Wall simply CANNOT run from the Pacific to the Gulf of Mexico. Why?
Well, there's this little thing that runs along the Texas border with Mexico called the Rio Grande.
Now, the border technically runs down the middle of the river. It becomes very technical when the river changes a bit WHERE in the river the border is, but essentially Mexico and the US jointly own the river.
So... there's no way in hell Mexico would put the border wall up on their side and lose access to the water.
And... there's now way in hell the wall will be built on the US side so that American farmers/ranchers lose access to the water.
So... even if a wall was put up from CA to NM, there will always be a river that runs the entire southwestern length of Texas where the sole border is? A river.
No wall...nothing. Just a river.
And it will always be that way.
Moreover, where the are walls...there are tunnels...and ladders...and ways to cut through (even concrete). The border is way, way, way too long to constantly monitor.
Maybe if we stopped disrupting Central American governments that continue to allow murderous regimes and/or corrupt government to rise, the people would remain in their home countries and not make the very arduous journey to America that so many don't want.
I dunno why we even have the Statue of Liberty, anymore.
New Colossus aka the statue of liberty poem
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
I know I'm older, I visited the Statue of Liberty as a young person and took my children there when they were young.
I'm a vet who joined solely to serve and do my duty as a multi-generation military family member. Grandfather, dad, two uncles and several cousins all served.
I don't recognize this nationalism.
When Ronald Reagan and George Bush debated in 1980 prior to the convention, both spoke about how important it was to respect the dignity of human life and the struggles of the refugee and immigrant.
I was a Republican then (well, young Republican, but still) and it never ocurred to me to demonize, demean or make less human those who sought to come to the best place on earth.
Nope, I don't recognize any of this. I remember all of us, from every part of this great nation being PROUD that we were THE GREAT AMERICAN MELTING POT. We not only were the grand experiment, but the great success, not only of real democracy, but we could embrace peoples from anywhere...THAT'S how great we were. That's what gave us the moral standing to call out other nations.
It surely wasn't perfect, but the goal was always to be better, to get better, to more and more every day be a nation that truly lived up to our lofty ideals.
I'll close with a few Ronald Reagan quotes:
"America is a shining city upon a hill whose beacon light guides freedom-loving people everywhere."
and from Reagan's farewell address: "I've spoken of the Shining City all my political life. …In my mind it was a tall, proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, windswept, God-blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace; a city with free ports that hummed with commerce and creativity. And if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here. That's how I saw it, and see it still."
Don't forget those migrants from a dangerous religion (''catholic'' must sounds dangerously muslim for Hysterical-Vermin-In-Chief Jones and half of the bible thumpers in the US are likely thinking that ''Khristian'' is a ''Kode Word for whites'') that, at the same time, take STEM jobs, take low level jobs and ''mooch on welfare''.
Seeing as how there is no way of telling who voted, let alone whether they were legal or not, it's anyone's guess. All I know for sure is that proof of citizenship is not required to vote in 40+ states and a judge in Kansas just prevented them from requiring proof of citizenship to vote so the very fabric of American democracy is under assault. The system has been primed for collapse.
"He who lives without discipline dies without honor" - Viking proverb
They can check pretty decent at it as they can just look for who voted twice to see if any voted under an assumed name and they kinda have to be a US citizen to register to vote if they don't want to get caught.
For someone to illegally vote and not have a strong chance of getting caught, it would require them to find someone else registered to vote and not voting and then impersonating them. As you can't vote twice and you can't vote if you aren't registered in that district.
And I do agree that our system has major issues, but illegals voting isn't one of them. Our system has issues with Gerrymandering and our first past the post system collectively shutting out 3rd parties and disenfranchising voters along lobbiest and donors having too much power in the system where it should be the voters that matter.
But illegals aren't an issue and ID Laws are a solution to a problem that doesn't exist and actually creates more problems in the process with how easily it can and has been proven to be abused.

First, I find the idea of calling a subgroup of people "illegals" incredibly degrading.
Second, perhaps there's a reason why so many people flee Mexico. It's a mess, Drug cartels own the government through and through.
These people need refuge and we (North America, IE Canada and US) refuse to grant them that refuge for whatever reason.
What's going on right now in the US is shameful. Yes, illegal immigration is an issue. No, rounding them up the way they're doing right now is not the answer.

[...] we have an intolerance for ideas and evidence that don’t fit a certain ideology. I’m also not saying that we should restrict people to certain gender roles; I’m advocating for quite the opposite: treat people as individuals, not as just another member of their group (tribalism)..
mostly the analfabetism and the lack of good(normal) paying jobs
most the mexican who goes to the US only think on send that money to their families on México, so to sen the highest amount possible they live in that kind of conditions to save some money and its easier to them to handle the cops; but they doesnt take in count the amount of money they need to spend to live there and the risk of it
my country is not the best but still a good place to live
I'm not PC. But to call them illegals is the first step in dehumanizing a group. It is "Us" versus "Them". They're human beings and most of them lack the required education to even know where to go to apply for a US visa. Again, not saying that illegal immigration isn't an issue - but we cannot possibly find a good solution if we act as if they were just an annoying group of mayflies.
I suspect that a good bunch of people moving borders are people who wish something better for their families or for themselves. I never lived in Mexico - in fact I am incredibly lucky to live in Canada. But I still know that Mexico is not necessarily the best place - or the safest - if you want to achieve more than average.

What a giant mess.
After so many years of doing almost nothing to tackle illegal immigration they need to work overtime now to even make a dent in the problem.
