New asylum rules approved by GOP and Democrats would give right to migrate to US to a population at least half the size of the American Midwest

Trump is not the enemy, he is currently our only hope as real “republicans” are already paid off, as are all democrats.

Trump does need to trust his gut, listen to some of his campaign speeches, and remind himself why he said he was running to be President in the first place, and the actions he would take.

Swamp has not been drained, but its population has been multiplied.

Trump is not our enemy, but that doesn’t mean he is beyond being called out when he falls short of the campaign promises he made. He ran as the ultimate deal maker who was going to win so much we’d be tired of winning, as he stated. Yes, he has done many great things, but there is still much to be accomplished.

You are correct. One of those principals to be accomplished remains the issue of what constitutes appropriate immigration policy. The dogma of “open borders” and “giving me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore,” of the 19th century are concepts that may not be applicable to living in the 21st century. We are today living in a world where many people on this planet are saddled with beliefs that disable them from assimilating into our society, as was not the case with the immigrants who came here in the 19th century and early in the 1900’s and after WWII. We may no longer be able to afford the costs of allowing in immigrants who cannot carry their own weight, or lack the industry to even try to do so. While I recognize that the immigration law will likely still allow those who are in danger in their own lands to emigrate here, I respectfully believe that we no longer can allow an open ended policy that is without taking into consideration not only why these people come here, and why they have not considered alternative places to emigrate too, and to simultaneously consider whether they can assimilate and are not influenced by any belief system that might promote or prompt violent conduct. We must all tell these things to our reps in congress and see that they present a comprehensive legal system that involves immigration, that makes sense in these difficult times.

From my perspective they all mean the same thing, and that is entry into the U.S.A. My point was that we need laws that will cover the why they want to come here, whether there are other places that might be better as their new homes, whether factors such as what they can contribute to society ought to be considered, and whether their culture will allow them to safely participate in what being an American is all about, and whether, like prior immigrants, they can responsibly assimilate into our free world societies. All those things, and possibly others need to be contained in any laws that are passed. I recognize that this might be a monumental task, but from what I see happening in Europe, I truly believe that our immigration system needs to be fixed and that those type of factors must be considered.

Refugee resettling should be off the table entirely. Asylum should be severely limited and thoroughly vetted, and immigration should be “individually considered, legal, and merit based ONLY”. We have enough garbage here already, and enough poverty, low skill, and those who just plain want to live off the gov’t. Non-assimilators and those wanting Sharia law, should be promptly deported. Enough is enough. If the politicians want a Civil War, they may just get one.

Yeah, and what did that POS Obama do? “Scandal-Free” admin, my foot!!!

Thank you!!! Too many people think Trump can do no wrong and are unwilling to hold Trump accountable. If we want him to be the president he claimed he’d be during the campaign, we must hold him accountable and call him out, not make excuses, when he strays!

He can use executive orders like Obama did. Yes, wall funding is difficult. On the other hand, or example, Trump has on numerous occasions talked about ending the immigrant diversity lottery program, which is a very bad and dangerous program, but it is still in effect. That, for example, is something that he could easily end by way of executive order.

Working for a travel company, I spend a lot of times at airports and I see the same shenanigans I saw under Obama and Bush. The more Islamo-3rd World the “travelers” (as in invaders), the more bags and boxes they have. I just don’t believe the Muslim family of 10 with at least 18 large boxes and bags is really here for a 7-day trip to Disney World. I talk to the guys who work immigration, and it is a sham.
