Hello Robo,
I would just like to comment about one little thing you said, if I might:

That's a cop out term. You know darn well that most of the refugees seeking asylum on our southern border would never be allowed in as legal immigrants.
President Trump has said the same thing. That if people want to emigrate here that they should do it legally. And he has also said that he wants more legal immigrants than ever before to do so. And that was a lie:
"Trump: “I want people to come into our country in the largest numbers ever, but they have to come in legally.”
"Last fall Trump set the lowest cap in the history of the refugee admission program -- permitting just 30,000 a year. In former President Barack Obama's last year in office he proposed a cap of 110,000 amid the height of the crisis in Syria. In fiscal year 2017, the Trump administration allowed the second fewest refugees ever.
Trump also won a battle in the Supreme Court to restrict all forms of travel and immigration from seven countries, five of which have Muslim majority populations. Just last week, the administration began selectively enforcing a new policy at the southern border that requires migrants seeking asylum to wait in Mexico while their applications are processed. He has also called for the elimination of the diversity visa program, which typically awards up to 50,000 immigration visas each year. "

Which Trump do you support?
The one that lies and says they should come in legally?
Or the one doing his best to just keep as many as possible OUT.
(I think we know the answer)
You're good with the 30K, right?
And you're good with telling people to apply for legal immigration, but knowing it is a waste of their time. Most of them could get in line and start waiting; and they would die before 'waiting for their turn' was complete. Most of them, really, will never GET A TURN.
That's what you really want, isn't it?
And if so, why not simply be honest about it and own up to it?
Why pretend that there is some other 'legal option' for them when there really is not?
