Trump Publicly Calls Out Immigrants Coming for Welfare As has been made abundantly clear over the past few years, orderly immigration of foreign nationals into the United States is an incredibly important topic for President Donald Trump. Despite the insistence to the contrary of the president’s detractors, Trump has shown no signs of hating all foreigners and immigrants, or wanting to close the nation’s borders entirely to all newcomers. He clearly understands the economic necessity of migrant workers for certain jobs, not to mention the longstanding American tradition of welcoming those who wish to contribute to this great nation. Those two points — the economic need for migrant workers and a desire for them to be self-sustaining and productive members of society — were addressed by Trump in a recent exclusive interview in the Oval Office with reporters for Breitbart News. “I don’t want to have anyone coming in that’s on welfare,” Trump told his interviewers at one point. “We have a problem, because we have politicians that are not strong, or they have bad intentions, or they want to get votes, because they think if they come in they’re going to vote Democrat, you know, for the most part,” the president added. Those remarks came in regard to a statistic provided in a recent report in December by the conservative Center for Immigration Studies that claimed that an estimated 63 percent of non-citizen households ended up enrolled in some sort of welfare program. These remarks from the president will no doubt cause a meltdown among elected Democrats and the liberal media, but only because what he said is fundamentally true and, in essence, called them out for supporting a situation that is illegal and unfair to American citizens. Our nation does need immigrants, but those individuals and families we allow to enter our nation should be capable of supporting themselves as much as possible and not rely on handouts from U.S. taxpayers to barely survive in poverty.
