I think that Trump and his party are driven purely by personal benefit and greed. The policies of Trump and his cronies reflect this and show how they want to control all the wealth among a ruling class. However, I don’t see how deporting immigrants (employees) would help this cause

Are they doing this for popular support? Why would they prioritize xenophobia over capital? Is it simply that they’re hateful and scared?

    Yes, but if you deport those you only have legal migrants, who are limited by the law and also already in the US for other work and won’t do your hard backbreaking labor for you since they’re mostly skilled workers.

      So instead of raising wages and treating them fairly, you’re advocating for cheap abusable labor?

      Some things never change.

        Nope. What I want to happen is for the government to make all those illegal workers legal. You’ll need migrants anyway, so might as well use the ones already there and just give them, you know, human rights and all that.
