Is this a first?

In the past week, Trump has deported 7300 illegal immigrants. And per multiple other reports we're now seeing only 5-600 daily Border encounters. Does that mean that for the first time in recent memory, the US has net negative illegal immigration? I wonder how far back one would have to go to match that? I know Obama deported several million, but he also allowed several million in so I don't think we were net negative. And while Trump did more to secure the border in his first term, I'm not sure he put as much focus on deportations so not sure if he was ever net-negative. Obviously with 20M+ illegal aliens in the country, the net negative needs to get much larger, but the journey has to start somewhere.

If only California and New Mexico would do what's right. Cali is the dent in those numbers singlehandedly imo.

I truly think that ICE should let sanctuary cities have their policies, and broadcast loudly which cities are sanctuaries. That way the illegals will self-locate to those regions and those citizens can deal with the consequences of their votes. That's how you flip the map red. Saving Chicago from itself doesn't change voter behavior.

Does California deserve all them electoral votes?

Expect the number of illegals that self deport start to increase as well, especially if we can get Congress off it's ass to pass real immigration reform that includes forbidding people that have been deported the ability to legally immigrate.

Get rid of the "anchor" babies. Would be a helluva start. Cut out the confusion and misinterpretation.
