No democrats are proposing open borders to say so is a bald faced lie. What the nation has needed for years is a revamped immigration system that is fair and available enough that it incourages immigration by the book. We also need to respect our legal and treaty obligations to accept and protect legitimate political refugees. If you think your illustrious Pumpkinfuhrer is going to end immigration you are dead wrong. His bluster about the matter is nothing but red meat thrown to his xenophobic supporters in the hope that their support will keep him in office and out of prison, something less likely with each passing day. Trump dosn’t have the support or the legal basis or authority to end immigration and he won’t.

As usual, Kevyn, you're way off base. President Trump, nor I, are against "immigrants." Yes, we are a nation of "immigrants." There is nothing wrong with "immigrants." "Immigrants" for the most part are legal, and are a great asset to the Nation. I have no problem with "by the book immigration," and I doubt that President Trump does either, and it should be revised to take out some of the discrepancies to efficiency; but until it is revised, it should be adhered to verbatim. I realize that you hate President Trump, and the USA, but he is your president, and you live in the USA, so get over yourself! President Trump is not, nor has he been, trying to end legal "immigration!"
Where you go off the rails is mixing up "immigrants" with "migrants," and "migrants" coming across the border and not through "immigration" portals are illegal aliens, and "immigrants" for the most part, are quite legal. The only illegal "immigrants" I can think of would be Muslims who had to lie when taking the oath of allegiance to the USA because of their strict ideological faith requiring them to swear allegiance only to Allah or Muhammad. "Migrants" on the other hand have not been through our "immigration" procedures having jumped the border illegally, have no rights as citizens of the USA, and should be receiving no benefits from the Federal, State, County, or City governments in spite of what the Progressive Democrats would have you believe.
Sanctuary cities, being illegal, should be receiving no aid or assistance from the Federal, State, or County governments. Churches found harboring fugitive illegal "migrants" should also be shuttered. The victims of any illegal "migrant" or illegal alien criminal, such as the Police Officer that was shot on Christmas day in California, should be suing the City, State, and/or County governments, as well as any Officers in charge of the City, County, or State for allowing known wanted felons loose on the public rather than turning them in to the Federal authorities, for funds in excess of a million dollars or more to compensate them for the loss of a loved one and breadwinner of the family. There should be lots of lawyers who would be happy to take the case all the way to the Supreme Court if necessary.
As far as what President Trump is doing, he is simply draining the Establishment Swamp and he's doing a fine job of it in spite of Progressives with loud mouths and minuscule brains that continually harass and obstruct him while tries to perform his elected duties. The draining is taking a little longer than expected because a lot of the RINOs are pretty covert, entrenched, and difficult to detect right away, but they eventually reveal their colors and go down the drain. James Mattis is an example of this. President Trump does things a bit differently than most liberals can understand, but his goals favor and promote the USA, they don't try to tear it down. Maybe one day you will mature to the point of understanding his philosophy, and maybe not, but I wish you well.
