Mexican Immigrants: College Student and Toddler Others

mexican immigrants: You look at the track of others things he's said and you don't feel like he's a genuine person to want to welcome new citizens, said Kevin Alvarado, a 21-year-old college student who arrived in the U.S. from Nicaragua as a toddler, according to Metro News. Others, however, appreciated Trump's message of unity especially at a time of political division. For them, the president's remarks welcoming them into the American family and urging them to help newcomers assimilate felt insincere after he previously ordered a travel ban, moved to end a program shielding nearly 800,000 young immigrants from deportation, and referred to Mexican immigrants as rapists. I thought the video was great, said Moises Rodriguez, a 28-year-old wedding disc jockey who came from Mexico and supports Trump's tough stance on illegal immigration. Such messages are a key part of naturalization ceremonies. The fact that it was very important that we educate the people that are coming here to assimilate to what is the American dream I thought that was very important. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
