I don’t see any campaign to promote Canadian border defense ? Oh no wait Trudeau is giving all of our tax money to immigration programs

Although i dont agree with Trumps policies it would be funny to see immigrants like her locked up in camps awaiting deportation \nMind you , they are so deluded they would probably still be supporting the idiot ?

Oh I love this. Go Trump Go! Maybe once you're done, you can come to Canada and clean out our swamps of fake 'asylum seekers' too. We all know that Selfie Boy only keeps them coming in for votes anyway. Once many of them come to Canada, they are no longer asylum seekers, but moochers/leeches/parasites. If they are coming in by Rodham Road, Quebec from the USA, how did they get in the USA in the first place. They had to have documentations, but amazingly, they have none coming into Canada? An asylum seeker comes into a safe country, and that's it, not entering a 2nd country, from the USA, which is in itself a safe country. Also, amazing, how many disposable cell phones were in the ditch before entering Canada by an unauthorized entry point. This is slapping the true immigrants and true asylum seekers coming in the correct way into Canada. But unfortunately, Selfie Boy doesn't see it that way.

I would deport a lot of people if I was U.S. president, but deporting Dreamers is a bad idea. There should be a bipartisan compromise: strict immigration enforcement combined with a path to citizenship for Dreamers (which is something that was unsuccessfully negotiated during Trump's first term). I'm not a Trump supporter, but I want to see Congress work together on immigration in a bipartisan manner.

Why do some people who go through hardships and overcome them, wish that others suffer too? Why not be a better person and work to make it easier for others? I see it everywhere: people who suffered from shitty bosses get promoted and make others suffer. People who had a hard time immigrating want it to be hard for others as well. Why not be a bigger person?

I can’t wait to see how this impacts the cost of everything in America. If all illegal immigrants would strike for 1 week they would all be granted citizenship after our economy collapses

We all want legal immigration, you guys sound like bots repeating his deceptive talking points. Guaranteed a racist person doesn’t see your legal status, they see an immigrant and will treat you the same way.\n\nShame on you!

ALOT of HOMELESS are American citizens, and yet look at them lol. A lot of AMERICANS get welfare, and where does this money come from!!??? US tax payers. And yet, there is a lot of IMMIGRANTS that do good and would love to trade places with them and have legal states?‍♀️ how much money has gone to the homeless and yet you don’t see progress or is even worst!!??‍♀️

Reap what you sow morons. Enjoy the recession Trump voters. It’s coming through his tariffs, mass deportations (inflationary as immigrants work in the food industry and housing) and enjoy giving a tax cut to the rich while you see your safety net cut (Medicare, Medicaid, social security etc).

How do you differentiate illegal immigrants? How do you know which country they belong to? DNA test?Action speaks louder than words. Let’s wait and see.

Option 1 we gonna SPEND a HUGE amount of money to deport millions of people. \nOption 2 we filter out high crime immigrants and filter those out, after we charge $20000 each illegal for a 2 year visa and work permit as a trial time, and see how they contribute to society. \n Do you have any idea how much money will come in?? It will close 1/4 of your countries deficit.\n Look I'm an immigrant myself, and I was brought in legally as a kid. However because of the difficulties or the bureaucracy I was left out of status. The company I worked for (a delaship) wants me back, customers reach out to me directly because they trusted me and were happy with my performance as their advisor. But guess what I can't work, but I also can't be deported because my country of birth is at war. And I dont want to go back quite frankly because it's back there I'm gonna be an alien more than I am here. I finished a degree and paid my way through collage here I grew up here, and even though because of the problems of the immigration system I was constantly limited with basic equal opportunities I still see this as my home, and actually appreciate this country more than some people I know that were born here. \n Now again - I suffered plenty with being limited as an immigrant here and I was forced to work shitty heavy labor for years and years, I worked overtime plenty with no overtime pay and such (y'all just have no idea what immigrants life is) and in my case - I got stuck in that status for 2 decades. Where I could have had a high degree by now, I instead have been just busting my ass for peanuts. I never asked for any help from the government here even when I could have, never filed unemployment. \nAnd after all this you gonna deport me? Great fucking plan. Land of brave and opportunity ??

She has no idea what’s really going to happen. Trump’s likely to ignore the existing laws and remove legal Hispanic immigrants or make it very very difficult for them to remain here. \n\nHe’s going to escalate existing ethnic bigotry, among a host of other divisive tactics, and she’ll see—along with other Latinos who voted for him, what’s she really voted for.\n\nThere are ways to handle this humanely, but think of how a certain German, his idol—per Ivana, his first wife—handled his power, and you’ll get some idea of how bad this can, and very likely will, really get. \n\nThe only possible saving grace may be his early signs of dementia, but he’s putting in place a group of likeminded friends, so not a good time to be different in the US.

Economic indicators say the economy was good. The economy and GDP grew, but the working class didn’t think so. Well, when the number of illegal immigrants per year far exceeds the number of new jobs per year, then the wages of the working class people will not keep up with inflation. Under Biden, the new jobs each year was an average of 1.2 million, but the number of illegal immigrants coming in looking for jobs was over 2 million people. For comparison, under Obama illegal immigration was just 300-400K per year. So as you can now see, the border crisis was a much bigger issue than the Democrats cared to admit.

Democrats don’t see the irony of being self described humanitarians and then crying “but we won’t be able to exploit illegal immigrant farm workers and prices are going to go up!” lol.

When the bill comes up for this wacko idea we'll see what tune everyone's singing. These morons will blow up the economy. I'm not encouraging illegal immigration, it's illegal. They will overreach, can't help themselves. They haven't got a plan, just another election promise to gin up the sheep. Their number one mandate is to improve the economy, this will do the exact opposite. 8 Trillion last time, it will be worse this time, clowns.

I see many of you are still struggling to understand how Trump won. It’s many fold, but I can some it up rather concisely.\n\nYour entire mantra was “Vote for us so we can have our way and do what I want or democracy dies”\n\nWhich is so ironic that the thing you think will happen is what that statement represents. \n\nAdd on that, you attacked your political opponent for 8 years with lies, rhetoric (which included degrading remarks about the general populace) and a weak economy and weak foreign policy with a severe influx of illegal immigration. \n\nYou did this to yourselves

See how stupid you are the the universe gave you a example down in Florida. When the Florida governor made laws against immigrants down there and they were all leaving his State all the employers begged the immigrants to stay

Let's see, $7K a month to support each illegal immigrant or a $500 plane ticket to send them back home! Buy the ticket!! DUH!

15 million illegal immigrants can into the US under joe biden? That's bullshit. That's like saying there was no illegal crossing under Trump. What even crazier is most Americans those that say cost was the biggest issue will be shocked when the chickens to factory have to pay $20 an hour and the cost is passed on. Must people ignore the workers in the hotels or in the back of the kitchens, landscaping etc and would not be happy working for those wages. These people live a life most Americans could not fathom. Let's see how that goes.

This is so mind-boggling. I'm not against immigrants coming legally, but being ok with someone being offensive to your ethnicity is crazy. That is your heritage and where you come from. Trump doesn't care ANYTHING about you or your family. \n\nWe're all buckling up for what's to come. So, get ready for what you all have asked for. When you have these racist Trump supporters who come in your direction, they're not going to see that you voted for Trump. Guess what? All they're going to see is an immigrant, even though you're a citizen. \n#Godisstillincontrol

Anytime something happens they want to blame immigrants. it happened in the great depression, we were blamed for taking jobs and they deported many mexican Americans that had to be later repatriated same crap again immigrants being blamed for stuff and again mass deportation, I want to see white children working the fields and the service jobs

These so called immigrants have NO idea how their decision will effect OTHER Latinos in America. They don’t see the bigger picture. \nAnd Trump in the White House will hit the finances. Just wait and see. Their taxes will go up. Gas will go up. Want to come which will NOT e good for ALL Americans. Time will tell people. Remember history DOES repeat itself.

Immigrants: our life is going to better. \nTrump: we’ll see once yall get deported.

They'll all see, they don't speak like Trump, and their color isn't as white as Trump's beautiful white skin. He also said, papers or not, immigrants all go ?. Good luck to you all, in the USA. You certainly are proving, how dumb you are. Now live with your decisions. I don't think the world is gonna give 2 shits about any of you that voted for Trump. He told you all what he and his goons have planned for you. Smh in disbelief ??

And still there is no actual problem with immigrants. They pay in more than they cost.\n\nWeird how people think they cost too much, but will happily cheer for wasting millions times that much on pointless walls and deportations.\n\nThen the labor market will collapse, Americans can't work as hard as immigrants! See that every single day, just no actual problems with immigrants as a whole.\n\nThe power of churches and television, folks.

They better hope they’re not part of the Immigrant round up that Trump said he would do. We’ll see.

It is quite crazy to see that immigrants themselves don't want to see other immigrants coming into the country to have a better life they once enjoyed when they came! What a hell is going on with people?

Let's see if he doesn't start immigration with them even if they are legal immigrants. They're all the same to him anyhow.

What you are seeing is \nLEGAL MIGRANTS rejecting \nIllegal immigration \nBut you all to thick to get it ?

If this is not controlled, as in, not allowing them in because we have no room, it's because Trudeau wants it to happen. The ones here already get more money a month in assistance than a Canadian who has paid taxes all their lives... and that right there should make you livid with the Liberals... how many homeless immigrants do we see in the thousands of encampments in Canada ??? If they come in Roxham Rd. put a legit facility there to turn them away instead of RCMP carrying their belongings into Canada..... SORRY >>>> NO VACANCIES

Trump will not fix anything, aside from deporting immigrants. Just wait and see! He will cause chaos and misery!

America needs immigration.... LEGAL immigration. \nFurthermore, the Oath of Allegiance to become a US citizen requires the new citizen to obey the laws of the United States: \nThe oath includes a commitment to support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States, and to obey the laws that result from the democratic process established by the Constitution.\nIllegal immigration equals breaking the law to get here. Do you see the irony.

Thanks cnn for exposing leftist racism on this thread. As a Hispanic I rarely see this done so openly. Illegal immigration doesn’t include just Hispanics. Saying all Hispanics including us citizens is not only completely false but a racist attack. CNN hosting these comments proves it is widespread. You can see it is. Hispanics are 43 percent Catholic and you guys choose abortion as your platform. It doesn’t take a genius to see it was a bad plan.

I fully agree with trump on his deportation policies thats money America couldve saved + billions in welfare democrats did alot of needless spending + the migrants come car thefts & home invasions go up by 8% i live in a area with alot of yemen immigrants ive see yemen families in the grocery stores & walmart all of them have ebt cards free medical bi weekly stipend of 2k + per family of four but if i lose my job today no medical & only $630 every 2 weeks & i have a family of 4 wtf something wrong with americas system

So let’s see immigrants walk into our country illegally not following the law of our land, Joe Biden and Camila Harris allow them to do it. They bus them to different cities to out the United States dump 30,000 at a time humans dump them in the small communities and the communities are suffering horribly And now the next president is going to come in put them all back on the bus and put them back over the border where they came from and somehow that’s a bad thing so it is a good thing breaking the law and it’s a bad thing in forcing the law I think you guys are really mixed up as to what you want for this country lawless or we’re all held accountable and have to operate under one set of rules except when you don’t like the rules, then we have to change the rules so that you don’t get sad and cry Sorry breaking the laws breaking the law and I think the Biden family is going to find that out because you guys have been hiding some really big secrets from your viewers did your viewers know that Biden was being impeached? Yep he is and it’s been going on now for three years so they have a pretty strong case you know with receipts meaning they have the evidence, not accusations not hearsay not basement hearing it was all open in public. If you want to you can actually go online and listen to the evidence America for yourself because this new station didn’t tell you about it it’s pretty good.

I cannot see anything wrong with not allowing illegal immigrants into the country.? What is the point of entering legally if it is OK to just hop across the border?

Ice officials????\nI doubt you will be involved with that. \nMore like Heavy Facist militia call up. \nZip ties chains and duck tapeing every immigrant they see ...\nGet ready for an influx of trumptards ....\nTo do your jobs folks ....\nAre you American? Prove it type bullshit. \nDont leave home with out Proper ID folks ....

Spoke like a true selfish immigrant. Let's see what happens when he comes knocking on your door to deport you.

I can see services and consumer products going up and of course you will have another liar in the WH press secretary room blaming the Biden administration for it. Same old story. It will probably be a story similar to the border wall, Mexico will pay for it. Where's the wall and when did Mexico pay for the part that was built? Ah, let's not mention that all those privately owned jails and detention centers (many owned by wealthy reps) will be ripping off the federal government/you the taxpayer. They will overcharge for lodging, food, blankets, you name it.  \nRemember, you might want deport all the illegal immigrants, but there are international laws as well. The countries that you might want to deport those immigrants might say, no. we don't want them. So, then, they become the responsibility of the US Government. Those people will be in limbo, meanwhile, we the taxpayers will paying for housing, feeding, clothing, them and their health care. \n\nOh, we haven't talked about climate change.... migration to the northern wealthier countries won't stop due to climate change. It won't stop here or in Europe. But, no many people are talking about it or preparing for it. \n\nNow the Reps have control of the executive branch, the congress (both chambers), and the Supreme Court is in his pocket. So, there will be no one to blame but themselves if they don't fix what they say they will fix: Immigration, ACA, the Economy, and more.

The sulver lining in this, itd be super hilarious to see Marco Rubio get deported since his parents are 2 illegal cuban immigrants. Can you imagine his pikachu face? ????

What they should do is hit pause on immigration. I believe they should grandfather in those who arrived prior to a specified year.\n\nI’m sure the majority is ok with immigration. JUST DO IT LEGALLY and for the gov to stop over extending our taxes and money. \n\nAmerica should come first. Americans have been put on the back burner while illegal immigrants get way more help which in turn hurts the very people who were born and raised here. We got people and children starving in this very country yet have a helping hand for those who don’t live here, came illegally or even like us. \n\nSo put the pause on and help Americans then help others. Other countries have stricter policies than we do and they’re thriving. and I believe don’t have as many issues as we do. \n\nAmerica leaders need to look into how other successful countries are running things and see how they can implement or improve on those.

I know how we go about this send the immigrants to Democratic controlled areas see how long they last. Like Martha's vinyard they will all be gone the next day.

This woman has no idea how messed up our current immigration system is. The fact that she thinks her deported cousins could successfully reapply or that she said “I stood in line for hours and days to get my green card” just shows how out of touch she is. She thinks that Trump sees her as an equal when he doesn’t. He doesn’t care about the difference between “illegal” or “legal” immigrants… he said non white immigrants are “poisoning the blood of America.” \nAnd as a Mexican born immigrant, she should never forget that the only thing protecting her is a green card, which can be revoked at any time. She is selfish and deluded. I am a daughter of a Taiwanese immigrant who watches Fox News every night and it drives me crazy. Y’all are no better than any illegal immigrant. We need more of them to sustain our low birth rate. Immigrants are awesome and there’s absolutely no good reason to inhumanely and violently deport immigrants. I have heard stories from friends of how inhumane the ICE detention centers are. They treat you like animals, worse than they treat US citizens who are murderers.

See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men., Canada , immigration is a benefit not a burden

So here is how things will move on going from here, and this goes for people reading the comments. And full disclaimer I live in Victoria, BC so I can share my POV from the Canadian side:\n\nThere's toomuch of low skilled cheap labour coming in from Punjab and other countries like Nigeria, Philippines, etc. Its gotten sooo bad now that even Indians living in Canada are feeling like this is not what we came for.\n\nI can't even start with how bad the immigration has gotten, people can barely and I mean barely speak English and they are working for all possible low skilled jobs. Tim Hortons, Uber delivery, Uber Cabs, Petrol pumps I mean what is going on.\n\nRight now its getting to Canadians, and you need to understand that Canadians need these low skilled jobs for themselves too but employers are finding extremely cheap labour from other places to replace Canadians.\n\nSo if you ask me this move is good, it will surely hurt the skilled labour class too but its needed. Imagine have a million immigrants coming in with a country that has a population of 40 million.\n\nThe infrastructure comes to a stand still, housing is ruined, food inflation begins. \n\nHonestly thanks to Diploma mills, Asylum seekers and gangs from Punjab, its honestly gotten bad from the Indian perspective. Now add to this others coming in from Africa and South East Asia and you can see this country get worse honestly.\n\nThis isn't hate against anyone, its just facts.

It’s coming..let’s an inevitable consequence of over immigration..l can see UK becoming Islamic by the mid century..

Let's talk about Canadian colleges and immigration have been milking and exploiting international students. These students bring a hell lot of money to the Canadian economy and yet they are treated as third class citizens.\nTry shutting down international students and see how the economy goes into a down spiral

I am an American so the only place I can be deported to is my mother Va-jay-jay but I have many immigrants friends and I wooden like to see them deported this lady is crazy

On the other hand, American community, which seems more aware & evolved, has a different view on indinn community. They like us (See Nate Friedman's video on Indian voters in Jersey n the comments section). \nEven Donald Trump has praised indian community. I think Canada lacks visionary & powerful leader thst can bring reforms in immigration. While i acknowledge thst some of us are embarrassing the entire community, an ignorant n narrow minded society generalize the entire community which is very sad & heartbreaking.

No one should make comments until actually VISIT Canada and see how many Canadian towns have been destroyed by Trudeau's open immigration policy. This is a REAL immigration problem!!! Its not a racism issue. I just traveled across the entire country from Quebec to Vancouver. It felt like a 3rd world country!!
