John Fugelsang: If the Trump Admin. Wanted to Stop Border Crossings, ‘They Would Go After the Employers’

FUGELSANG: “I mean, the only thing Donald Trump hates more than immigrants is the Constitution and the Bible that protects them. And it‘s worth pointing out he‘s our only president who have hired undocumented immigrants in two different centuries to avoid paying a living wage to an American worker.

There‘s a gigantic ‘help wanted’ sign at our border, and the Republican Party will never take that ‘help wanted’ signs down.”

PHILLIP: “The point he‘s making is about whether Trump is going to go after the employers. And, I mean, the answer is no, he‘s not. But — hold on. But look, right now — right now — okay, okay.”
JENNINGS: “Is the border effectively closed there?”
PHILLIP: “There are very few border crossings. It‘s not zero, but it‘s very few. So let‘s — but let me — let me — right now, in the state of Los Angeles — “
MICHAELS: “They‘re not going after the employers.
FLUGELSANG: “The majority overstay their visas.”
PHILLIP: “Not anymore, or at least it was not in the last surge.”
