You are complete nonsense.
Illegal immigrants do not qualify for foodstamps, SNAP, or WIC. So your comment about "Mexicans" is completely false.
With that said.... Part of the job of the FDA and other branches of the government is to educate the public on how to get such benefits. There is a little loop hole where illegal immigrants can indirectly receive such benefits. Do you know how that is possible? Of course you don't.

Your statement doesn't make any sense. Of course people who were caught within 100 miles from the border were counted. That is where the vast majority of illegals are caught.
You always say this - "they changed the rules". You said the same thing about unemployment, and you wanted to debate the "real unemployment" rate. Odd how you no longer want to do that.

This is a brilliant idea. And it would fix our problem quickly. However.... That's illegal. That's now how the law works. It would be a massive change to our asylum laws. In order for this to happen it would have to become law, meaning it would have to go through Congress. If Trump had enough intelligence to pay words with friends with my Black Lab, he would be trying to work with Congress on this. But being as Trump has done nothing by call them names, insult them, and now accuse them of treason..... That's not going to happen. He's never worked with Congress so why start now?
He has zero negotiation skills.

You have been listening to the idiots that say there isn't a problem at the border

Again, he cannot do that. Trump cannot violate US Federal law.
There wasn't a problem at the border until Trump took a hard line and promised to lock up illegals - giving them housing, food, clothing, and healthcare, and a chance to become a US citizen. At the same time, our immigration department is understaffed. Under Trump the immigration offices are understaffed (plus he closed over twenty foreign offices), Border Patrol is understaffed, as is customs.
This problem didn't exist under Obama. This problem didn't exist in Trump's first year. This problem was directly caused by Trump and his policies. Trump created this problem. Trump owns this problem.
And Trump's solution to the problem is to fire the Director of Homeland Security because she refused to break the law.
After three years in office Trump has zero political capital in Washington. So much for his negotiation skills.
This is an unmitigated disaster. Trump has been in office three years and accomplished nothing. Nothing at all. He hasn't fixed healthcare, the drug crisis, the middle east, the VA.... Not a single damn thing. After three years in office he STILL hasn't built a single section of wall. Instead, he claims a section of replacement wall funded by Obama is his wall. (And it's not even a wall, it's a fence.)
No worries. Just blame the Democrats.
