My heartiest congratulations go out to all those typically stoopid Republicans for their typically stoopid policies - this one centering around Immigration.
Republicans took a giant shit on the people who come here to help us, while doing nothing to stop the people they claim are trying to come here to hurt us.
CATO Institute tries to spin it as even-steven - a win and a loss - it isn't. It's a FUBAR wrapped in a SNAFU with big bold labels - CLUSTER FUCK - on every side of the package.
President Trump entered the White House with the goal of reducing legal immigration by 63 percent. Trump was wildly successful in reducing legal immigration. By November 2020, the Trump administration reduced the number of green cards issued to people abroad by at least 418,453 and the number of non‐immigrant visas by at least 11,178,668 during his first term through November 2020. President Trump also entered the White House with the goal of eliminating illegal immigration but Trump oversaw a virtual collapse in interior immigration enforcement and the stabilization of the illegal immigrant population. Thus, Trump succeeded in reducing legal immigration and failed to eliminate illegal immigration.
BTW, if 45* had understood anything but his need to fondle himself, he could've peddled his stoopid immigration shit in terms of COVID-19, which would've given him a real chance.
But he didn't, because it was never about immigration. And it was only "about the economics" in the sense that he always does whatever is necessary to put money in his pocket.
We have to stop thinking "a little common sense is all we need". We have to get back to where we know it's more complicated than it seems it should be, but we're going to need qualified professionals to run this place because it is, in fact, pretty fucking complicated.
Can we try that for a while - again?
