If Republicans truly saw companies hiring illegal immigrants as an issue, they'd be able to easily crack down on business owners doing the hiring and make the punishment more than just a slap on the wrist.

No, the cruelty towards other humans is the point. They don't care about the non-existent issue.

The slippery slope here is that deciding who is "illegal" may vary wildly depending on who Trump empowers (legit or just some Nazis that want "safe streets") to decide this. He has had people saying just undocumented, but also people saying anyone that isn't a full citizen (so anyone here with a Visa/Green Card/work papers/migrant workers/refugees/etc.).

You also know that when the Nazis/KKK folks get to work they are just going to be grabbing people that "look illegal" or that run from them/their mob (because they look dangerous!).

This is also going to have a HUGE impact on food prices when farmers have nobody to pick crops.

Get out of here with your woke pronouns, it’s ’he/him mob’!

It is a civil offense to be in the US without permission (I.e no visa), so the Trump admin would likely have to change the law to deport these people.

It is a criminal offense to enter the US without permission. These people could be deported.

Trump has been busted for hiring illegals and faced no real consequences
