America is an island of relative sanity in a world devolving into chaos. The two natural responses to that situation are economic patriotism (decoupling from globalism) and taking a sober look at managing immigration. The American people are known for having common sense, and the reality of the situation is staring us right in the face. In his awkward manner, Trump is the only candidate to even acknowledge those truths.
Immigration is like rain. You need it in times of drought. In times of flood, it's the last thing you need. Immigration is what made the Roman Empire great. It's also partially what destroyed the Roman Empire, which in the end became too convoluted and unfocused and lost all sense of nationality and charter.
We are a nation OF immigrants...
You didn't read my post, or you just didn't agree with it. I acknowledge that this country rose to a super-power via immigration. But, there comes a time when too much of a good thing is too much of a good thing.
I think all the desperate people piling up in the queue on the Greece-Macedonia border attempting to get into Europe, and all the dinghies overflowing with M.E. and African refugees attempting to land on a Greek island are a cautionary tale for the USA..
Everyone wants to come to America. Ultimately, we have to draw a line.
