We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.
A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

A big problem, from what I can tell, is that there's a massive backlog of asylum cases and the asylum seekers are allowed to remain in the country until they're tried. The estimated wait time at this point is 6 years. Meanwhile, the various legal processes for permanent residence are years long and they have a million strings attached. Some of the legal routes don't even allow you to be in the country until you're approved. That's one of the reasons Hispanic voters turned out for Trump - they felt as though people taking this backdoor route were cheating the system and giving them a bad name.
I can understand a grace period for people who have already been here for some time, but we've already given incredible amnesty. How many more times will we push out the deadline, as it were?
