Yeah, and they compete for different jobs because the immigrants take jobs that otherwise would require higher pay to get workers to do.

Legal immigrants must be paid more than prevailing wage.
People like to parrot Disney at this point but USCIS is closing that loophole.

That is correct, which is why Trump is just trying to get rid of illegal immigration.
Trump criticized an American-born judge for his Mexican heritage - he's not just against illegal immigration.

He didn't criticize him for his heritage. He said being mexican makes him biased on certain topics. Stop pretending tribal solidarity doesn't exist.

That's factually wrong. Documented workers’ wages rise with increases in the share of undocumented workers in a worker’s county and employed by their employers.
Why? The law of comparative advantage says we get more productive when we have more trading partners, and the arrival of undocumented workers with limited English skills frees up low-skill American workers who can then specialize in tasks that require better English.
