The hardest part about this situation is that Americans are supporting this politician and these actions, but they're fundamentally un-American. Our national identity is a melting-pot and welcoming open-arms to the immigrants of the world. Our history prides itself with Ellis Island and the mix of languages, cultures, and backgrounds coming together to build a new world. Now, we want to construct a physical barrier and a legal barrier to keep people out -- the same people who contribute to our human capital with some of the best doctors, scientists, engineers, academics, leaders and often some of the greatest real patriots.
We'll just become an ugly, stupid, in-bred bunch of white trash who bitterly complain about manufacturing jobs being stolen by robots, while wealthy CEOs piss on the nation and laugh.
