Trump recently had a meeting on immigration where he said some not so nice things but countries such as Haiti, El Salvador, and the continent of Africa as a whole as "shithole countries." Hearing this I honestly wasn't surprised because it is something that would come out of Trump's mouth, but it is still unbelievable that this man is the President.

At the end of the day can we be completely shocked by what he said? It's disheartening to know that this man is in office, making decisions that are going to tear families apart.

Many people really don't know exactly what chain migration is, " The misconception is that any immigrant can bring as many family members as they would like when they come to the United States. In actuality, the process is much lengthier, in some cases taking up to 23 years, and is limited to certain family members." The article goes into detail to discuss the breakdown of chain migration, #1 is the benefactors. "United States citizens or lawful permanent residents (green card holders) have the ability to sponsor a family member to come to the United States."
