How the hell is it undeniable? I don't want say you are gullible, but try to find some additional "evidence" if you can. I'll bet you can't, except for right wing MAGA propaganda websites. Maybe cite a real news organization? Heck, I'll even accept something from Fox News to verify the 14% claim from the video.
Hello??? Chris??? You say the video is undeniable. To who? The MAGA faithful already believes this nonsense.
Well, I guess it's not important to get substantiated evidence if you agree with that video. It's what you want to hear and no other facts will move you from the "facts" you've been fed.
This immigration issue is bullshit, but not the fact that there is a problem. Yes, something needs to be done. A bipartisan bill, your so called common ground, was negotiated in the Senate, but then killed by Trump so he could use it as a campaign issue.

"Last October, Senate Republicans insisted additional aid for Ukraine must be tied to a bill addressing security at the U.S.-Mexico border.
The border legislation, negotiated by a
bipartisan group of senators, was rejected by most Senate Republicans and some Democrats in February when Republican presidential candidate and former President Donald Trump objected to it.
Shortly after the February vote, Senator Chris Murphy initiated talks with other senators to draft a bill that could receive sufficient
bipartisan support, hoping to overcome opposition from both Democrats and Republicans.
The resulting new bill, similar to the bill proposed in February, failed less than four days after it was introduced.
"Cornell University immigration law professor Stephen Yale-Loehr says immigration reform is dead for 2024."
“For a variety of reasons,” he said, adding “immigration reform has always been hard to get through Congress. …
Donald Trump wants to make immigration one of his key pillars of his campaign. So he basically killed the efforts in the Senate and the House earlier this year.”
So, we could have had substantial immigration reform, but your presidential candidate needs to issue to get folks like you all riled up getting your panties all in a bunch to bitch and moan about illegal immigration.
If elected maybe Trump will get something signed into law, but if it's anything like his effort for getting an infrastructure deal passed don't count on it.
