President Trump on Sunday called for deportations to be carried out “with no judges or court cases” in his latest tirade against undocumented immigrants. The president took his rhetoric up a notch despite ongoing backlash over his administration’s zero-tolerance policy at the border, saying undocumented immigrants—many of whom are seeking asylum—must not be allowed to “invade our country.” “When somebody comes in, we must immediately, with no Judges or Court Cases, bring them back from where they came. Our system is a mockery to good immigration policy and Law and Order,” he tweeted. He went on to insist that America’s immigration policy is “laughed at all over the world." On the contrary, the United Nations recently warned that the Trump administration was bordering on “torture” with the family separations carried out under its zero-tolerance policy.
We cannot allow all of these people to invade our Country. When somebody comes in, we must immediately, with no Judges or Court Cases, bring them back from where they came. Our system is a mockery to good immigration policy and Law and Order. Most children come without parents...

....Our Immigration policy, laughed at all over the world, is very unfair to all of those people who have gone through the system legally and are waiting on line for years! Immigration must be based on merit - we need people who will help to Make America Great Again!
