Trump doesn't go nearly far enough. The borders should be 100% closed to immigration for a decade or so, and many deportations need to happen during that time.
After a decade, then start merit based immigration only. That is the only fair and equitable immigration, when it is based on intellectual or job-related ability only. No "refugee" junk.

I'm a teacher. Do you honestly think a class in which 75% or more of the students are learning English as a second language doesn't impact the instructional pace? That's not a racist comment. It's a big challenge for the teachers and students.

I’m still appalled that teachers are supposed to deal with this. I subbed a few times in a school like this and was completely overwhelmed. No one was learning anything at all. It is so incredibly unfair to both teachers and students.

Notice all the hand-wringing about "immigrants are flooding our schools and making our kids dumb" bullshit never gets into detail. It's all noise with no evidence.

What? You must not have school age kids. The huge surge in ESOL kids in recent years is a major drain on most public schools in the area. It is driving how districts handle curriculum, how much funds there are for other kids, and in FCPS now considerations of redistricting. Schools are where the big negative impact of illegal immigration are shouldered.

My wife is a school nurse.

They need to give combat pay for title one schools but there is no salary adjustment so everyone runs away from These schools .

But the liberal elites never show up. Or help. They just yell RACIST!

Umm what voting demographic do you think a majority of teachers are. Most of us have a lot more empathy than your wife and the PP

1) this was 30 years ago. It’s ancient.

I grew up in CA and they have been complaining about immigration for 45 years, even through GOP leadership. It’s a refrain there to be sure.

You likely fall into one or more of these categories:
-- a college student
-- have no children
-- live in the northeast in a non-diverse area
--live in an expensive area with excellent public schools
--send your kids to private schools

Can you let us know how Trump made your wife’s job easier? Did her salary decrease under Biden? Also, which GOP elites showed up to the school? Just curious.
