Nope, none. There are problems caused by authoritarian and heavy-handed immigration law (this is what the H1B and exploited farm workers stuff falls under), but illegal immigration itself? Absolutely not. There's a reason the first two laws restricting immigration to the US were the Page Act and the Chinese Exclusion Act, both targeting East Asians specifically; this shit has always been about racism.
Yeah no, plenty of people did. He literally promised to deport millions of them.
Well, maybe the fact you can't see how other people have different lives and live under different systems, makes it hard for you to see other perspectives.
I'm perfectly willing to see other perspectives when they're not bullshit. It just happens that this particular perspective is bullshit. In the words of many a rightwinger, facts don't care about your feelings. Or mine, or anybody's. If you want more proof, Democrats, which tend to be city dwellers and therefore more likely to interact with immigrants, are overwhelmingly pro-immigration.
Yes, people who are around immigrants and find a social benefit tend to promote immigration, while those who are around immigrants and see a social detriment will be against immigration.
Not sure what point you are making though.
Because you (I suspect intentionally) misread my reply. The people most likely to be around immigrants in the first place overwhelming support immigration.
There's a lot of these
And not many of these.
No there's not many, but it does exist and when a country is as big as America, even minority groups are in the millions.
