"SAY GOODBYE REPUBLICANS" if you pull this shit, might as well eliminate the party...

Immigration divides the Republican Party the way civil rights and the War in Vietnam divided the Democratic Party during the late 1960's and early 1970's. I do not see how the GOP can handle this issue without losing Republican voters and campaign contributors.

The business community, which has always dominated the GOP, wants more immigrants so employers can lower wages. White blue collar Republicans want fewer or no immigrants for the same reason.

The Democrat Party has different constituencies with different concerns, but they are not divided by a critical issue.

The ideal solution from the standpoint of the country club Republicans is to allow more immigrants, without allowing the immigrants to become citizens. That way the immigrants lower wages without voting Democrat. The blue collar wing of the GOP will not accept that however. Joe Sixpack does not want Hispanics applying for his job.
