You didn't have to do a poll to know that most Americans wanted the Federal Government to crack down on the unrestricted river of illegal aliens who were entering this country, mainly from the Southern border with Mexico but also through Hawaii from Asia.

But the issue of Immigration quickly was turned into a partisan political football by the news media during the first term of former President Donald Trump.

I say "first term" because there is a very good chance, despite his political conviction, that he will be re-elected in November.

The media has changed over the years from reporting to editorializing in their alleged news reporting. There is no professional news reporting from the mainstream news media. It has been replaced by political partisan commentary nuanced inside the so-called news reports.

The media addresses it as an issue of human rights. But the reality is that a dysfunctional or broken immigration system results of higher crimes in America.

Trump was slammed for imposing a "Muslim Ban" when he restricted and stopped the immigration from six predominantly Muslim countries and several other non-Muslim countries.
