Soooo, everybody.

Soooo, everybody.

Pretty much, unless you think we’re a majority criminal nation.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Kind of selective, considering 250 years of American history.

I know. It worked very well.
And then Ted Kennedy fucked it up in 1965.
And then Biden really fucked it up in 2021.

Can you prove that’s a good thing for a country defined by immigration?

There's good immigration and there's bad immigration. Stopping bad immigration is a good thing. If you're in a pack of wolves ... it's good when other wolves immigrate into the pack. It's bad when Chihuahuas try to sneak in.

Trump/MAGA isn’t making the distinction between good and bad.

Demographics are destiny. Immigration had a storied past when we were a fledgling nation. As such it has secured a place in history. But times change. The Nation is established. Not trying to find its footing. The people wanting into the country now, are seeking something very different than those of the past...

Some truth to that. Kick Mexican out while letting the Communist Chinese and East Indians in. Admittedly ... a bit schizophrenic.

Third time’s the charm? Trump doesn’t seem to be doing any better.

If you're here illegally, you're bad.

Fixing Biden's massive **** up is going to take some hard work.

The U.S. experienced negative net migration in 2025 for the first time in at least half a century as a result of the Trump administration's immigration crackdown, according to a report released Tuesday by the Brookings Institution.

Although the administration has undertaken aggressive removal efforts, the negative number is mostly due to a significant drop in entries into the U.S., the report said.

Remember when Biden said it would take an act of Congress?

No, it just took someone like Trump with the will to stop it.

Um the source is MSN, you might hold your fire until a legitimate source confirms.
If this plays out, it is at best a nice start.

Not sure why you think people not coming here legally is a good thing. That just tells me that this country is no longer a place people want to go..

Negative net migration is a good thing when it’s the result of illegals aliens getting deported.

I imagine 1930's Germans saying something similar.
