"Isn't this the point?"
President Donald Trump has systematically engineered a major
crackdown on immigration during his first 100 days in office — even as
courts reject his executive orders and Congress nears a spending deal
that will deny him funding for a wall along the southern border.
The number of arrests on the U.S.-Mexico border plummeted in March
to its lowest level in 17 years — a strong suggestion that Trump’s
anti-immigration rhetoric is scaring away foreigners who might otherwise
try to enter the United States illegally. In addition, part of a
lesser-known
executive order
that Trump signed in January gave federal immigration agents broad
leeway to arrest virtually any undocumented immigrant they encounter.
