But notice the FACT: " We've arrested fewer illegals, therefore we claim there are fewer illegals coming into the country."

Total southwest border apprehensions declined about 63 percent from November 2016 to February 2017. DHS defined total apprehensions as those made by border patrol between ports of entry and inadmissibility at ports of entry determined by U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Office of Field Operations.

And you know that how?

That's my point: just because there are fewer arrests does not mean there are fewer illegals coming in. This should be obvious.

And the refugees? More now than under Obama????

We need to hit the breaks on entry altogether.

To be fair, Trump did issue a travel ban from certain countries, but the courts keep overreaching and blocking it.

Im not talking about a travel ban, I mean we need to put a stop to all immigration whatsoever, then deport the illegals, start phasing out the guest workers, etc. Once we have Americans employed, THEN we can start thinking about importing additional workers - if they are needed.

As for immigration for citizenship purposes, it's high time we take a long hard look at just who we want coming to our country and becoming citizens.

So, yeah, BREAKS, as in break the current immigration system into pieces, grind it into dust, and start over with some common sense Americanism.

Alas, it will never happen until there has been a massive catharsis of the "liberal-progressive-neoconservative" treason infecting the nation, so every man to his tent.

I believe President Trump has done tremendous work in his
first year in office! I am glad I voted for him and will do so
again in 2020!
