most of the legal ones - they come with skills or with jobs lined up or both


not so much the refugees or illegals though

Most of these jobs are low paying, they may need welfare assistance. How's the Trump witch-hunt distingush between them?

This is the central issue. If the government plans on to cut taxes, then higher social expenses would not be possible.

Not saying it is the Christian thing to do; however, it is why many wealthy persons who voted for him.

How do you square that circle with your faith?
Just fine.
My faith comes in all shapes.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 KJV
(1) To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
(2) A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
(3) A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
(4) A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
(5) A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
(6) A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
(7) A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
(8) A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

It is against the law in the US. The President is only enforcing the law. What a concept.

Legal immigrants on aid is against the law?

Culling the poor immigration prospects from the rich ones is "enforcing the law"?

And what of Matthew 25:40-46? That seems a lot more relevant and authoritative.

Agree - benefits from taxes should be for citizens.
