Trump sees the danger of allowing masses of unskilled immigrants into the country, and for the life of me I don’t know how a rational person can disagree with him.
Send us hordes of Indian mathematicians and chemists instead. Race has nothing to do with it.

Sure, let's import mathematicians and chemists to take our more highly-paid jobs. That's idiotic.

As for that "unskilled labor" -- do you know a single white American who wants to work in the orchards and fields, doing minimum wage gopher work on construction sites, changing soiled linens in hotels, etc.?

And you’re ignorant of the current job market lol.

This isn’t 1920 when hordes of Europeans immigrated to the steel mills in Pittsburgh or the coal fields of WV. The country needed mass immigration of unskilled or low skilled workers at the time. There is no living wage to be had for someone of that job-caliber today. For every one of them that makes something of himself there’s going to be 8 or 10 that lag behind.

It’s going to overload our already stressed entitlement programs.

Please. Owlwoman said it best: "do you know a single white American who wants to work in the orchards and fields, doing minimum wage gopher work on construction sites, changing soiled linens in hotels, etc.? "

These people who are doing the jobs Americans don't want to do, and are HIRED BY PEOPLE LIKE TRUMP who want cheap labor, wouldn't be getting entitlements.

Furthermore, didn't trump claim he's going to bring back the steel industry and "beautiful clean coal", believe me? :rofl2:

After an initial wave of immigration from China following the California Gold Rush, Congress passed a series of laws culminating in the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, banning virtually all immigration from China until the law's repeal in 1943. In the late 1800s, immigration from other Asian countries, especially to the West Coast, became more common.

The peak year of European immigration was in 1907, when 1,285,349 persons entered the country.[SUP][21][/SUP] By 1910, 13.5 million immigrants were living in the United States.[SUP][22][/SUP] In 1921, the Congress passed the Emergency Quota Act, followed by the Immigration Act of 1924. The 1924 Act was aimed at further restricting immigrants from Southern and Eastern Europe, particularly Jews, Italians, and Slavs, who had begun to enter the country in large numbers beginning in the 1890s, and consolidated the prohibition of Asian immigration.[SUP][23][/SUP]

There’s only X amount of those kind of jobs and families can’t survive on them without government assistance.

Who’s going to pay for all of this? You can only tax the rich so much before you drive them out of the country.

On January 2, 1892, the Immigration Service opened the U.S.’s best known immigration station on Ellis Island in New York Harbor. The enormous station housed inspection facilities, hearing and detention rooms, hospitals, cafeterias, administrative offices, railroad ticket offices, and representatives of many immigrant aid societies. America’s largest and busiest port of entry for decades, Ellis Island station employed 119 of the Immigration Service's entire staff of 180 in 1893.

The Service built additional immigrant stations at other principal ports of entry through the early 20th century. At New York, Boston, Philadelphia, and other traditional ports of entry, the Immigration Service hired many Immigrant Inspectors who previously worked for state agencies. Between 1900 and 1920 the nation admitted over 14.5 million immigrants.

Concerns over mass immigration and its impact on the country began to change Americans’ historically open attitude toward immigration. Congress strengthened national immigration law with new legislation in 1903 and 1907. Meanwhile, a Presidential Commission investigated the causes of massive emigration out of Southern and Eastern Europe and the Congressional Dillingham Commission studied conditions among immigrants in the United States. These commissions’ reports influenced the writing and passage of the Immigration Act of 1917.

Among its other provisions, the 1917 Act required that immigrants be able to read and write in their native language, obligating the Immigration Service to begin administering literacy tests. Another change, the introduction of pre-inspection and more-rigorous medical examinations at the point of departure saved time for people passing through some American ports of entry and reduced the number of excluded immigrants.
