The immigration issue has not been around for a couple weeks. This issue has been around for decades. We are talking since - at least - the Clinton Era, but did not increase rapidly until the Obama Era.
The issue has increased with every administration with different administration agendas, different priorities, different people in individual offices and different elected officials representing different border states.
For those who are not aware which border states this issue is affecting directly, let me clear that up for you - Texas, Arizona, New Mexico and California.... as of right now. The two biggest states involved in the eye of the storm is Texas and California. Texas because of the Rio Grande Valley, and California because they have different laws than the rest of America when it comes to illegal immigrants.
The reason this problem has become such a big deal is because the Trump administration had a 'zero tolerance' policy, which pretty clearly meant there will be zero tolerance for those who come into this country without papers.
This becomes more controversial every day because the Democrats in office go back to the idea of compassion and "being there for other countries." Why do they want this? The American people who identify as Democrats believe it really is compassion.
However, the truth - or at least what conservative media explains what "the truth" is is that the Democrats in office just want votes. That's the only reason they want open borders. So that those who come in - who ever they are - will vote democratically. The illegal immigrants will vote for the elected official who gives the immigrant what they want regardless of the effect it has on this country.
Stay tuned for more explanation soon to come....
