That, Reyes, is definitely a matter of perspective.
Millions and millions of us emphatically agree with Trump.
As Rush points out, Harry Truman deported 3.5 million illegals. And Truman was a democrat.
Deporting people who are breaking our very liberal immigration laws is not a disgrace. It is a means of protecting the jobs and wages of our citizens.
And, so long as it is humanely handled (no beatings, abuse, etc.), then it is a positive even for those who have illegally entered this country.
This uncontrolled invasion of our nation by illegal aliens is the disgrace.
That opinion coming from someone named “Raul Reyes” is no surprise...
Someone needs to check HIS immigrant status!
Sorry Reyes, it shouldn't offend any American citizens, it should only offend illegal alien invaders and warn the would be invaders to only come here legally.
NBC/Reyes - re-writing history to meet their agenda.
Sanctuary cities are a national disgrace. Drug dealing criminals are a national disgrace.

Sorry, NBC news. You are often wrong. You fabricate information. You lie. You are lying again this time.
Cry me a rio.
Another Hispanic triumphalist using Alinskyite tactics against the only people who care. Screw him let him violate Mexico’s immigration law and see how much “humanity” he receives.
Are we going to have a country or not?
I like Trump on immigration.
Also look at what is happening in Europe. Germany is on the verge of a civil war over LEGAL refugees entering their country and that's only a fraction of what our country has taken on illegally.
Jose, why don’t you get together with a bunch of Guatemalans and demonstrate against deportations in front of the Mexican embassy? No, you won’t do that you g.d. hypocrite.
They should have thought about heat stroke before breaking into America illegally.
Also heard a commentator today opine something like, “several of them own homes!” They should have thought about that, too.

Gee, I wonder why Trump ‘doubles down’ on anti-illegal immigration rhetoric? To the extreme of bringing up a program that most Americans are oblivious to and heretofore unoffended by.
Perhaps he has discovered that an overwhelming majority of Americans (from both parties) agree with him 100 percent.
