Look at the facts, in the USA it is causing more and more discontent, even among the traditional poor ethnic democrat voters. They are the ones who suffer. Perhaps another youtube video will help? You may watch one someday and see it for yourself.
How important is immigration and the border to Americans?
According to February polling from Gallup, more American adults thought immigration is the most important problem facing the country than other issues -- but that concern was driven mostly by Republicans.
Gallup found that 28% of Americans overall said immigration is the United States' most important problem, up from 20% in January and 9% last August in their polling.
But there has been little movement among Democrats, only 10% of whom cited immigration as the most important problem in February and 9% in January.
By contrast, 57% of Republicans did, up from 37% in Gallup's January polling.
Independents were in the middle: 22% said immigration was the most important problem facing the nation in February, up from 16% in January.

A separate poll by Quinnipiac University released in February found that immigration was the third-ranked most important problem among registered voters -- with 17% of those polled saying it was the most urgent issue -- behind "preserving democracy in the United States" (21% of registered voters) and the economy (20% of registered voters).
When broken down by party, Republicans were more likely than Democrats to say immigration was their choice of top issue. Among Republicans, 35% called it their most urgent issue but only 4% of Democrats did the same, while 16% of independents felt that way.
