All the money China is feeding Mexico and these people are still trying to come to America should tell you something. Gangs and corrupt Politicians stealing money and not taking care of their people...

This woman is awesome and I really respect her. All she is saying is do it the right way if you really wanna be in America and pledge allegiance to America then fill out the paperwork and come into America and be a part of the culture.

America is basically made up of immigrants, but in the past they were willing to do it legally, and if they want to come over, continue to do it legally or not at sll

Coming into America illegally is a felony! Trump still hasn’t deported as many illegal immigrants as Obama has. But only trump is bad? Find something else to cry about!

Like a pinata exploded? oh I'm sure they love America just look how they act coming over here to benefit our country

America is closed ! Stay in your own country and fix it. If you want to come here do it legally.

Most Americans don't know that the trouble in Venezuela like most other countries south of our border, was more than likely caused by US interference. For decades our government has financed regime changes at the request of American corporations. Us companies take advantage of natural resources and cheap labor to get maximum profits at the expense of the other countries. Anytime politicians tried to look out for the best interest of their country and people, we financed any opposition that would disrupt their government from enacting change. Our tax dollars. Then, when immigrants come up because of poverty and violence, who can blame them? We all would do the same. Decades of under-funding immigration services and courts make it a years long process that most can't afford to wait for. America is a huge country. We have room. They aren't talking your job. And the vast majority are not criminals. But, the wealthy and powerful people need you to be distracted and have a scapegoat for you to blame for everything. Quit idolizing the wealthy. That includes either party.

There own country is a shit hol. Coming to America is not the solution

These People come to America for free housing,food, education, welfare check,healthcare that’s why they’re here unlike in other countries ?they don’t allow it. Only in America eh.

As one of the world leaders, President Trump should also order the deportation of White land thieves in South Africa & Australia back to Europe (they stole the land from Blacks), & for Christopher Columbus, who supposedly 'discovered' America in 1492, though he found 112 MILLION BLACKS & RED INDIANS living in peace, but MASSACRED 106 MILLION of them in order to settle Whites from Europe (these people r so heartless), to be charged posthumously for GENOCIDE & ROBBERY WITH VIOLENCE, & for DECEIVING billions of people for more than 500 years regarding the fake 'discovery'. This should duely be followed by RETURNING the land of America back to its owners; Blacks & Red Indians. Meaning that Trump too, should be deported back to Germany or Scotland, where his ancestors came from. No double standards. If one's history is fake, it sure has to change when TRUTH comes out.

They come here with high expectations , but not everyone can succeed. There’s an unnatural amount of migrants, and they have been overpopulated. It took generations for those who came in legally to succeed, and some still struggle. It looks like they’re trying to empty out there country to take over America. Open your eyes and see the truth.

Take it as a sign. Go back home. Fix your own country and problems. Tired of paying for everyone’s freebies. I am beyond frustrated. You come to the United States illegally. Majority want to wave your own country’s flag. Disrespect our way of life. Don’t conform. Nope. Be proud of where you come from. And fix it. We are Not here to fix your issues. Still overcoming ours. But I love my America!! God Bless Her

I don’t care where you come from or what race you are. If you’re here illegally, you’d have to be deported. Actually, quite a lot of people that come through the southern border or overstay their visas come from Africa. A lot of come from China, the Philippines, Vietnam they’re not all from South America or Mexico.

They need to get under control. All these can't ppl come into America. It will get bad really fast. It's sad that the Mexico president is not trying to better their ppl and country. Eliminate the cartel and restore Mexico. \n\nWhat I hate about this is why Mexicans don't seek refuge in other countries. Why America, especially when you're trying to bring everyone you know with you. I agree they need to band together and fix their own country not come to America..

Coming to America ??- born in East LA move there wow

What I don’t get is America isn’t against immigrants coming to America (the legal way) but people want to protest coming here illegally and are upset people are getting deported because they didn’t come the legal way. I work with a ton of guys that came to America the legal way and are all for deporting the illegals back to where they came from. The legal immigrants work hard and pay taxes and illegals don’t pay taxes they get benefits and haven’t paid their dues like the legal immigrants had to do to get in. Taking care of illegals takes away from Americans getting the help they need and we have to pay taxes. They protest and wave the Mexico flag holding signs saying “Immigrants built America” and $hit on the things America has done for them. If they built America and are so proud to be from Mexico then why don’t you build Mexico up like you say you did in America. If it’s so great why are you coming to America illegally and running from your country. Do you think protesting and blocking streets and highways is going to get you anywhere with Trump and do you think your going to win the American people over by pissing them off doing stupid things like blocking highways and Streets. You don’t win people over by pissing them off and you don’t win Americans over Shitting on America waving your flag when this country has done more for you then your own country. If you came here illegally and broke the law then you should’ve thought about that before doing it and being put on the ICE list.Go back and by all means come back when your legally allowed and while you wait for that to happen and the papers to go through build up your own Country!

They're clearly coming to America from their successful countries to be oppressed with every other democrat and trans freak that experience oppression in America.

Asylum is mean't for fleeing government persecution and you are supposed to claim asylum at the first safe country. It was never mean't for people to shop around and decide which country they want to live in. Now these other countries have helped their own citizens leave and taught them what to say at the port of entry. We have seen the pamphlets they passed out to their own citizens. You can't tell me that there is some leader in south or central america trying to murder all 20 million people that have come here illegally. I am fairly certain that the world would know about it by now. These people are lying and were taught to lie by the same people they claim are trying to kill them. We are 36 trillion dollars in debt. We are not rich and we have more homeless Americans than we have ever had in history

They should not blame America for the problems that they’re having in their own countries. America is just protecting their own citizens and if you break the law, you will be arrested. If you wanna come in to America, you need to come in through customs and then if they fit that you’re right, they will let you in.That is the law of America!

Crazy that these people are soooo emboldened from the last 4 years that they feel entitled to just come into America.

CNN said Trump ruined America, so why do they want to come?

Amazing how America brought Africans over in shackles and chains but when they come voluntarily it’s a problem. Africans are indigenous to every continent. Perplexing how America steals land then dictates who can reside on it. Hilarious.

I know this is insensitive, but at least there in Canada you don't have to fear for your life, you don't have to worry about possible sex slavery, servitude slavery or people coming after you just for you existing like me in America. I'm willing to live in Canada and live in the same economic state as in America if it means I dont have to worry for my rights and freedom.

It’s funny they want to leave Mexico come to America to fly their Mexican flag there is no limit to stupidity

Why don’t the government look and see how many days a week how many years we work and so you know what let’s give this family since they’re not making as much as a rich family and let’s go to this upper class Rich family at work hard let’s give them a break where they need it see People can’t spend money or throw money at certain things and expect people to get by but if you wanna come somewhere, why do they do it like this because they see the blacks act crazy in America that’s why they thought they could come to America and do the same thing. It’s common damn sense manjust like a white collar criminal he’ll look in the face and tell you that there’s nothing he can do and there’s a lot he could’ve done and did and do.? but the problem is we need to stick together as people and not let our jobs dictate who we are and make us think we’re better than the average person that only makes $30,000 a year and can’t buy their children the nicest things that they would like because the most important thing to them is having a roof over their head and paying the bills and that’s what upsets me with people in this world they got all this help to fight drugs they got all in the world to fight this, but what about the little guy? What about the little woman the little family guy look out for them?? can’t just say oh here’s church food that shit ain’t good enough. I’m very thankful to the churches that help people with some of them food banks even a church knows it doesn’t help it gets them bye and if you think getting by is healthy when you can’t work a good day because your stomach‘s so low because your children are more important to eat than you? this is why America can’t take care of their own because they’re too busy taking care of the fake

Well they left india to come to America and are rude and nasty to Americans.

They come to America wanting free Healthcare..jobs. housing..and yet we have US veterans in the streets without any help..and even homelessness..go back to your country and make it better ...we had enough with ilegal aliens..its time to clean house...

Why the fake jews not going back to where they come from cause they not from america or israel so when are they leaving

America’s message to the world… Either come here via a legal pathway… Or don’t come at all!

Okay if Trump the Imports everyone that's a immigrant there won't be nobody left to run the country who is he going to have run it robot Elon Musk Facebook inventor the rich he's going to put them in there with him to run the country and take care of the United States of America because Trump is going to send everybody back to their countries so who's going to run America because half of America is all immigrants their Heritage their families are all here without them America can't survive Aldi's American white uneducated hillbilly people that you're trying to put into the capital the White House the government are all losers sex offenders alcoholics crime criminals you release half of the criminals in prison so is that going to run the country maybe they might get mad and come up there and attack you have you ever thought about that for what you did to them with your lies you lied about winning the election and you lied about it and they all went to prison for you because you lied Mr President Trump you are you using Revenge well guess what Revenge will come back to you one day the criminals you left out are going to visit you surprise surprise????????????

Personally, I understand where Trump is coming from in the context of deportation. However, there is a slight error in the entire scenario.\n\nThe law enforcements are picking up both documented, and undocumented immigrants, and that basically translates to something sinister attached to the whole thing.\n\nI would do it differently (Treat Each Case Separately) because not every foreigner in America is undocumented, and illegal. The records are there. America is good at keeping records.

Africans have no respect for black people in America. They come here thinking they're better than us. Go be better than us in Africa and if you make it back here, come with some respect for the people who were forced to build this country for free. Now gtfoh

Why don’t they seek peace in their country? Why should America ope her boarders to immigrants? The wall should be build. God knows how many criminals are among these people. Every country has the right to protect its boarder. Apply for asylum and come. God protect America.

Good, both Canada and Mexico have been doing whatever they want when it comes to America. Everything America needs can be produced within America. This also could help both Canada and Mexico to create their own economy.

? Harris should be ashamed....it was reported, that she had literature handed out, all over the latin countries to come to America.

Wow! These illegals are entitled and violent!. They think We the Peole owe them something!\nThey have all heard they can come to America and social security disability and 10 grand a yr in food stamps. And government housing. Plus they can work under the table.\nThey are so violent and entitled. Its disgusting. Americans are soooo taken advantage of.

Come on America, forget Mexico and Canada, you have enough resources, just put up there tariffs 1000 percent

80% of good come in from Canada. Go ahead. How about leaving America and Americans alone. America is Americans not Europe. Sorry

Keep noticing in the news. That it keeps coming from the angle how it's going to hurt American citizens. Never what it's going to do to Mexico or Canada. Just how bad it is for America. What about the other side? What will Canada and Mexico feel? What goods? Always from the angle of be scared America this sucks for you and only you.

I don't think the average viewer knows why the US is doing this. They're trying to combat illegal immigration and fentanyl as well as Mexican compliance with the drug cartels.\n\nThe reason tariffs are being used is because America is in a very powerful position when it comes to trade. The american economy doesn't rely on trade like Canada (67%), Mexico (73%) and China (37%). American trade accounts for only 24% of its massive GDP. if you removed all trade from america, it would still have larger economical output than china, mexico and canada COMBINED. yes. Combined. \n\nFurthermore, Canadian trade with america account for almost 80% of all trade in canada. A 25% increase would be absolutely devastating to canada. In america its about 13% so a 25% increase would cost more but it wont have any significant impact.\n\nNo doubt this tarrif war will cause far more problems for canada mexico and china than america. By a LOT. \n\nI dont think america is being selfish either. China does nothing to protect america from sending precursor chemicals to america to manufacture fentanyl. Canada facilitates illegal immigration and fentanyl into america with no accountability. And mexico is illegal immigrants by the MILLIONS and is literally working with the drug cartels. If they sort out those issues the trade war ends. \n\nI think america has every right to go to war to protect its sovereignty and its people.

Illegal is illegal. Send them back ALL and let them come in the legal way. Americans are tired of being drained by these people who have not contributed to our economy. They are taking bread out of our family's mouths. That includes the criminals and non-criminals alike. They are all criminals if they came in illegally. America is waking up. That is one of the reasons we voted for President Trump. Send them back.

Soon lots of more people will try to come in there will be lots of people dying there but then america will be the worse country to live in due to its law

Most don’t get it. Sure, it’s gonna hurt, at first. Growing pains. America doesn’t need anyone. We will be stronger being self sufficient. It’ll take a bit but we will come out stronger and better.

I think that the UK, EU and Canada, if they play their cards right, can come out of this car crash presidency stronger and more independent from America. They’re shooting themselves in the foot.

Trump really doesn't get it that a significant portion of America's prosperity comes from the longest undefended border in the world.

America is cracking down on crime. Coming to America illegally is a crime. Criminals should be afraid. They were walking proudly around before because there were no consequences. Thank God for Trump

Russian economy coming soon to America.

Justin Trudeau's border plan of 1.3 billion over six to ten years is a joke! Tariffs on America after several US administrations tried to work with Canadian governments to stop provocations in trade, border security, immigration, and many other issues, only to fall on deaf ears or passive responses, not to mention Trudeau's derogatory comments about Trump being a racist. At the same time, Trudeau was caught having a history of wearing racist blackface. Not wise! \n\nFor some odd reason, Trudeau thought it was also wise to mock the American President, Donald Trump, with other European leaders while attending a meeting in the UK at Buckingham Palace, which clearly invited bad blood between the two. Not to mention his missteps while traveling in Europe and meeting with Kamala. He also increasingly chose to snuggle up to China. However, America has provided Canada with favorable trading relations and high-cost subsidies in the form of military and territorial security for decades. That clearly was a slap in the face and wasn't very smart! You had to figure some American president would ultimately say enough!\n\nAmerica has supported, defended, and offset the national defense costs of European nations for over seventy years, while EU countries and their leaders have routinely mocked and ridiculed Americans. Is it really classy to slap the face of someone who protects and supports you and your quality of life? No, it's not! Tariffs on EU products are likely coming soon, and reduced defensive support for Europe means they will have to pay more taxes for their defense and goods.

As a European I am so sorry to hear this. I love America, but this is going to cause so much harm in the relationship between the countries of the west. It is only a matter of time before Trump does the same for goods coming from the EU.

Honestly everyone is to blame. Canada and Mexico have both been riding the American gravy train for decades and never got slapped by any of the former presidents. And now that a president who puts the US first comes along everyone acts like America and our president is in the wrong. Just because something wrong was allowed to happen for so long that doesn't mean it was right. So two things these tariffs will do to Canada. One your economy isn't exactly stellar right now. Two Trump just has to pump up the pressure further and Canada will fold. It's that simple. As for Mexico they are squarely attached to America's teet. They need us WAY more than we need them. They will fold. And during negotiations we will make them ok US military operations on the Cartels. All people see is the word tariffs and don't think about the strategy behind them. Tariffs are a tool to apply pressure and gain leverage. Canada and Mexico would do the same if they could. So lets stop with the pearl clutching.
