Even the Failing NYT has to give it up:

President Trump’s immigration policies — like travel bans and visa restrictions or refugee caps and asylum changes — have begun to deliver on a longstanding goal: Legal immigration has fallen more than 11 percent and a steeper drop is looming.

While Mr. Trump highlights the construction of a border wall to stress his war on illegal immigration, it is through policy changes, not physical barriers, that his administration has been able to seal the United States. Two more measures were to take effect by Monday, an expansion of his travel ban and strict wealth tests on green card applicants.

“He’s really ticking off all the boxes. It’s kind of amazing,” said Sarah Pierce, a policy analyst with the Migration Policy Institute, a nonpartisan research group. “In an administration that’s been perceived to be haphazard, on immigration they’ve been extremely consistent and barreling forward.”

WGAF?

Not all Americans agree on anything. Only the biggest loon socialists think that unchecked illegal immigration won’t destroy America

Trump is doing or actually trying to do what he promised. This is a foreign concept to career politicians, but people actually like not being lied too. Crazy right?

"Ticking off all the boxes." "Haphazard." "Barreling forward." Some real red meat for the regular liberals. That was very well crafted for maximum trigger.

kinda sucks that this:

travel bans and visa restrictions or refugee caps and asylum changes


is considered legal immigration.. wish there were another term for it, so people who actually go through the citizenship process don't get lumped in with a bunch of Soros-funded "asylum seekers"

Because it's all a show. Everyone is paying attention to Trump and screaming about Trump. Meanwhile in the shadows, his appointees have been free to push forward his agenda unimpeded because no one is paying attention to them.

It has to cause all of the Fake News outlets physical pain to be forced to admit that DJT's policies are working.

Much like when they had to clarify that last week's #MuhRussia3.0 was a bust.

These dumbfricks were the ones perceiving Trump to be haphazard. He's been nothing but methodical and consistent in delivering what he promised.
