“The U.S. cannot treat Colombian migrants as criminals,” Petro wrote. Petro said even though there were 15,660 Americans without legal immigration status in Colombia, he would never carry out a raid to return handcuffed Americans to the United States. “We are the opposite of the Nazis,” he wrote, in a jab at Trump. Mexico also refused a request last week to let a U.S. military aircraft land with migrants.

    They were prior to the law change. There is no law change here. The people being deported from the US were never us citizens.

      Even if you could prove that those people aren’t here legally, Trump is changing the laws. He wants to end Birth Right citizenship.

              I think Trump has a long history of racism and it will either bake it into law that Europeans get preferred treatment or it will be selectively enforced.

              Btw, why are you using two questions marks? Do you think doing it makes you look more expressive?

          The shit he signed into law says NOTHING about birther tourism or any other kind of tourism. Just delete the fourteenth amendment. Cause fuck the constitution right. Is that what you support.
