Sorry, but I respectfully disagree with your 84 Lumber commercial. The premise of the commercial is a heart rending tale of a mother and daughter's symbolic migrant journey towards becoming a legal American citizen.
Wrong. The process of becoming a legal American citizen does not involve taking a trip in the back of a truck with other people carrying chickens and whatever personal possessions you can carry on your back. You don't get dropped off at the edge of a desert, and walk for miles in the heat, begging for water from other migrants trying to cross a border (assumed to be Mexico) only to come across the (assumed to be constructed Trump Wall). It is a commercial with strong political overtones designed to elicit feeling of sympathy and support for migrants due to the hardship and perils of they face in their difficult journey.
Entering our country legally either as a citizen, green card holder, or work visa, does involve paperwork, and a presumably long waiting time. It does not involve some contractor sawing lumber and cutting two large doors into a wall that the mother and daughter walk through to enter our country illegally. But I guess doing it my way does not sell lumber..... but you get the point.
