The former admin did nothing to fix the situation and folks are mad at the current admin's tactics. But maybe, just maybe Trump will piss enough people off, because he's Trump, that congress does something.
I'm not holding my breath. I'm simply expecting both sides to use them as their political pawns.
Pretty much. It's what happens when people care more about votes than they do people.

Show me several years of data that make your claim valid, also define "whiter" countries and show where they are allowed in a higher rate than normal. I am very curious to see how you can prove this.
I could if I still had the data. Immigration policy shifts in the points systems and things have resulted in a decrease in immigration from neighboring countries in favor of European and Asian countries. That being said, Mexico is still the largest source of our immigration in this country, but it has become much more difficult in the past 30-40 years, which is why there has been a rise in illegal immigration. Unfortunately, I don't have the data for this, it was presented by DHS at a forum I went to last year.
