No he probably does. Yall just can't seem to understand that immigration should be allowed, but spread out.
Yall just straight up don't want immigrants at all.
Who said they "don't want immigrants at all"? I haven't seen that argument made anywhere.
Then you don't know how to read between the lines.
That, and clearly you're uninformed:

From your source
It doesn't require reading between the lines but it seems like Trump is against illegal immigration. You do know there is a difference between immigration and illegal immigration don't you?
Again who has said they "don't want immigrants at all"?
Or maybe your DTS is so out of control you can't get past what was actually said.
If you're gonna insult someone, at least get the acronym correct you jackass
So angry do you need a hug?
No, I'm not angry. I'm laughing at your stupidity.
Angry and petty, I hope you find happiness some day.
I haven't demonized you, just observed that when you claim that Trump doesn't want any immigrants based on him saying he doesn't want illegal immigrants, your perception is off do to your TDS.
It's pretty obvious he did, I've always found that hurling insults is a concession. It's fun to get pizza to paint himself into corners though.
Sorry I'm too busy living in reality to believe that bullshit. Yall don't get to throw around insults and then claim to be the victim.
We think it should be allowed, but 2.4 million illegals in 2023 alone is a bit much. And thats just the ones we know about. The US is 340 million people, more than likely more than 1% is here illegally.

So yes, we agree. Probably just a matter of where to draw the line. Personally it should be strict, and the first instance of a crime, including illegally immigrating, should result in deportation.
No one is illegal, they are undocumented seeking asylum that is provided by US law.
Common myth. The way you're supposed to seek asylum is to apply at a border checkpoint or at an embassy. And asking for asylum after you get caught illegally immigrating is a separate act from illegally immigrating.
So in other words, what I said is true.
Are you advocating for immigration in general, or illegal immigration specifically?
My position is that the immigration system needs a gigantic overhaul to allow people to quickly, easily, and cheaply migrate and recieve asylum legally. The current system is the exact opposite in every way.
Modern republican policy instead says "fuck it, fuck them, just deport them all".
It's not just republicans. Obama deported more people than any other president before him.
Democrats are fuck ups on this issue too, don't get me wrong. But by and large the majority of the fault on this issue can be attributed to republicans.
We already have that system. The problem is we take in 19.1% of the worlds immigrants, thats over 50 million immigrants and thats simply too much. Those numbers were grabbed here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_to_the_United_States
The solution is not illegal immigration.
Immigration is one of our country's core strengths. Don't you remember that "melting pot" stuff from civics class?
Immigrants are a net positive for the economy, and for our country, so I don't have a problem taking in as many that come. When immigrants come here, they bring their businesses with them and/or start new ones. And I like that.
You can still screw up a melting pot by putting in the wrong stuff. Especially if you put in a lot of the wrong stuff.
That's effectively what people said about every single group in the U.S.
Catholics, italians, protestants, irish, etc. Doesn't matter, there will always be somebody around to be a bigot against some group. In the end it's dumb because the melting pot is too big to really be effected. Even at 2m/year that's a 0.6% change a year. Big whoop.
