Reality show will be ‘Hunger Games’ for immigration

A reality show producer says he’s pitched a show to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) based on immigrants competing for expedited legal status.
Worsoff said contestants will already be in the immigration system but would only compete for earlier processing.
“All I’m offering is to jump to the front of the line,” he added.
The producer said he pitched the idea to the Obama, Biden and Trump administrations and that all three were receptive to the idea, but it didn’t come to fruition.
Contestants will start at New York’s Ellis Island and then take a train to a different location on every episode and complete various challenges that are all quintessentially American, such as working on a car assembly line in Detroit.
“We’re going to put a face to all these people who are on this journey and want nothing more than to be a part of this country, and we’re going to humanize them, and we’re going to celebrate them,” he told Vargas. LINK

That doesn't sound anything like Hunger Games for immigration. Hunger games would be having them fight to the death for their spot

I’m cool with it as long as one winner jumps the line and all other contestants are immediately deported.
Would be more fun to have a Runniing Man style game show.

I’d be more likely to watch if it was really this

They're in this country illegally.
They already jumped the line

Shocking but twitter is under the assumption Trump will be overseeing it like commodus in the coliseum as Guatemalan immigrants fight to the death
When in reality this producer pitched the idea and it isn’t for trumps amusement

I'd rather see a Cannonball race to southern Mexico, winners get 1,000 pesos and losers go to Bukele's B&B. Run the race every Monday with a 1,000 invaders.

What an idiotic idea.

I'd much rather watch a COPS version of ICE raids.
