Why the problem isn't hispanic immigrants..

It never was. It was about getting votes from all the scared shitless white racists so you could be president and admired and stroked and praised and on TV for 4 straight years like a big fat petulant manbaby. The real problem is that Americans are still too mindless and chickshit and gullible to take charge of their own country and build towards a better future, instead preferring to be jerked around like dumb sheep by their own basest instincts of hate and fear.

Lies from people who don't know reality. And not "Hispanic immigrants," "illegal immigrants."

You mean using stolen identities to pay taxes, a crime on top of illegal entry.
You mean taking US jobs and driving down wages. I haven't seen anyone claim they weren't working.
You mean showing up at courthouses when they've been arrested for a completely unrelated crime.
You mean women can break our immigration laws just like men do. Assuming they can't would be misogynist.
You mean there is no dispute if you entered the country illegally, thus minimal necessary due process. Don't conflate legal-entry asylum seekers.
You mean Obama kept illegal aliens in cages and we detain criminals all the time. Nothing new here.
You mean spending money now to help the economy later, which has been every bipartisan stimulus bill for decades.
You mean Trump faced no penalties for that weaponized conviction, which is still under appeal.

“Alexa and the other guests, and perhaps even Georgina, all understood the fleeing from war, from the kind of poverty that crushed human souls, but they would not understand the need to escape from the oppressive lethargy of choicelessness. They would not understand why people like him who were raised well fed and watered but mired in dissatisfaction, conditioned from birth to look towards somewhere else, eternally convinced that real lives happened in that somewhere else, were now resolved to do dangerous things, illegal things, so as to leave, none of them starving, or raped, or from burned villages, but merely hungry for for choice and certainty.”― Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Americanah

Then come legally. Over 1 million people do it every year.

Easier said than done:

"some immigrants may wait for 9 years or even longer to obtain a green card, particularly in certain family-based preference categories. These extended wait times are often due to annual quotas and backlogs within the immigration system, particularly for those seeking to sponsor family members like adult children or siblings."

And? The US doesn't owe the world anything.
