  To do maximum harm to Hispanics. We have totally legal Americans who are Hispanic leaving the country, they can afford to, and it’s all because of this ethnic clensing, which is 100% what anti immigration hate is about its that Hispanics aren’t white enough, and they want us all out now.

  There’s already talk from Trump’s goverment that they are considering special IDs being required. You know. Exactly what the Nazi did gearing up for the holocaust. This is ethnic clensing, it’s disregarding the rights of any Hispanic people and attacking them legally and illegally and daring anyone to stop them. So far, no one in particular cares.

      From what I am to understand it will be finally requiring the Real ID be implemented everywhere, and everyone needs to carry that, or a passport.

    In this case, however, it is a white British national. It doesn’t seem to fit into the racist rhetoric that normally comes out of this administration, instead being a broader targeting of foreigners in general. (This of course not being the only case of Europeans facing problems)

    Racism is a huge factor, but it seems the end goal goes further towards complete isolationism.

    This is incorrect. Canada discovered she had an incorrect visa to enter Canada, as she had a tourist visa and they determined she’d need a work visa - so they sent her back to the USA, where she had come from, to reapply for her Canadian visa and then re-enter - but the USA border agents, on seeing her getting rejected, questioned her about her stay in the USA and determined she had broken the terms of the visa she was in the USA under, and thus detained her.

  Catering to your idiotic voters is the reason.
