    Who do you hold responsible for America's 11,000,000+ illegal immigrants? [3.5% of the population]

    For a significant number of them, I blame the 30 years of democrat reign in California. There a number of sanctuary cities in Ca, and just recently they gave driver's licenses to :Illegals". They also give out a substantial welfare package, free medical and free education among their freebies.

    There is no incentive for the illegals to go, but a big incentive for them to keep coming here.

      I agree. Furthermore, California is dependent upon the cheap labor immigrants offer the wealthy class, much like the Antebellum South of the 1860's. Maybe that's why they want open borders.

      And what would the rich Repubicans do without their alien maids and gardeners? BTW, U.S. officials do not reign". Kings and emperors reign, we don't have kings here, although Trump thinks he can reign like one.

      MizBejabbers. Their are probably more rich democrats than republicans. HRC, Bill Clinton and the Clinton Foundation were not funded by Republicans. No one but u mentioned Reign. Trump spoke nicely of u?

    Democrats who promised to build a wall after the Ronald Reagan amnesty and never did.
    The ones who promised to build a wall in 2006 and deport illegal immigrants.
    This is why it is immoral to compromise with Democrats on their issue - they've repeatedly broken all promises about ending or reforming immigration after every amnesty or compromise by Republicans.

      You can't just blame the Dems. Look at the Repubs who hire illegal maids and gardeners. Jeb Bush's wife is from Mexico,and became a U.S. citizen in 1979m but it made the Bushes soft on aliens to have a Mexican daughter-in-law.

    Maybe you should be asking what the USA would do without them? They work for minimum wage. Lots do jobs nobody else wants to do. Where would the rich get their cheap labour from? I also question how you come up with that number. If they are illegal how does anyone know how many there are? Some only want a better life for their family.

      There are enough legal immigrants doing the same jobs. The indirect costs for welfare, free education, free medical and food stamps adds up to a big number. What it may benefit the people that employ them it dn for the taxpayer. Also crimes $$$

      Here you can't get any of those things without I'd and birth records. Why did the USA ever allow that. I think I just answered your question. Obama sent the most illegals back home when he was in office. Then all the other governments are to blame.

      Terrie, so how come there are still 11 million here, and sanctuary cities. Obama added potential terrorists along with the millions of refugees and immigrants that jumped to the head of the immigration line. What ? did you think u answered?

      Democrats are working feverishly to persuade state legislatures and governors to pass laws giving such states' electoral votes to the winner (nationally) of the popular vote.  Imagine the 2016 happiness of Montana voters 60% of whom voted for Trump!

      It should actually go in the other direction for the elector college. The winner take all is bad it eradicates millions of votes. And in CA 55 electoral votes. So Trump have over 4 million, and HRC over 7 million. She won 55 votes HRC shb 7 div by 11

    I'm just taking a guess and saying the government. I feel this way because American-born citizen's, pay taxes in order to ensure they can work and make a decent life for themselves and their families. It seems as if America has been looted of all her resources and meanwhile, taxes are  high, inflation is increasing, and it's becoming harder for the struggling American to survive.
