Illegals simply have to go for law & order + security.
Legal immigration is a more nuanced issue. Economically speaking, we need legal immigration restrictions to protect American workers. This is the most expedient messaging. Buy American, Hire American. We can train Americans to become engineers or work in other STEM fields, and after all we must continue to affirm that this is an actual country where an actual group of people live - not just a giant shopping mall for the world.
Trump was saying much better things about H1B’s and legal immigration in 2016 and 2020, and has weakened his stance on these issues likely because of his coalition with many in the Tech Industry who rely on H1B’s for cheap foreign indentured servants.
He wants to be remembered as a great president, and he can’t get reelected again. He’s 80 something years old. His constituency decides his legacy, not a few people in Silicon Valley. We need to set the bar high.
Shove this and everything DJT has said about Mass Deportations in the face of everyone who supports him.
We won’t get everything but we would be stupid to squander the opportunity for the removal of millions of foreign aliens and the prevention of millions of more coming in. Anyone who disagrees is suspect or stupid TBH.

Official government accounts have also spread fake fact checks. An official Twitter account for the Russia diplomatic mission in Geneva shared a fake debunking video claiming without evidence that "Western and Ukrainian media are creating thousands of fake news on Russia every day." The video, which has amassed almost 30,000 views, offered a "how-to" spot misinformation. At the start of 2018, the company attempted to launch an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) which would enable it to enable payments (and earn the cash that comes from doing so). The initial signals were promising, especially given Telegram’s user base is already fairly crypto-savvy. It raised an initial tranche of cash – worth more than a billion dollars – to help develop the coin before opening sales to the public. Unfortunately, third-party sales of coins bought in those initial fundraising rounds raised the ire of the SEC, which brought the hammer down on the whole operation. In 2020, officials ordered Telegram to pay a fine of $18.5 million and hand back much of the cash that it had raised. Apparently upbeat developments in Russia's discussions with Ukraine helped at least temporarily send investors back into risk assets. Russian President Vladimir Putin said during a meeting with his Belarusian counterpart Alexander Lukashenko that there were "certain positive developments" occurring in the talks with Ukraine, according to a transcript of their meeting. Putin added that discussions were happening "almost on a daily basis." The next bit isn’t clear, but Durov reportedly claimed that his resignation, dated March 21st, was an April Fools’ prank. TechCrunch implies that it was a matter of principle, but it’s hard to be clear on the wheres, whos and whys. Similarly, on April 17th, the Moscow Times quoted Durov as saying that he quit the company after being pressured to reveal account details about Ukrainians protesting the then-president Viktor Yanukovych. At its heart, Telegram is little more than a messaging app like WhatsApp or Signal. But it also offers open channels that enable a single user, or a group of users, to communicate with large numbers in a method similar to a Twitter account. This has proven to be both a blessing and a curse for Telegram and its users, since these channels can be used for both good and ill. Right now, as Wired reports, the app is a key way for Ukrainians to receive updates from the government during the invasion.
