Garry Johnson Persuasive Speech

Improved Essays
I’m writing to you today about Donald Trump and Garry Johnson and their views on immigration. The two candidates have very valid points. Before I did any research about their views on this problem I sided with Trump by just saying get them all out. Then I read more about Garry Johnson, he changed my whole outlook on the problem of having illegal immigrants in our country.

Trump wants to get all illegal immigrants out of the country. But one may ask “How do you expect to get every single illegal to go back to their home country?” His only response to this could be is to build the 10-foot wall. Johnson said “A 10-foot wall just requires an 11-foot ladder.” this does say a lot because people will do anything to be in the United States. Trump wants people to come into our country, he wants to bring people in but all he wants is to be able to do it legally.

He wants them to come into our country if they are willing to get a work visa and in order to do that it would include a background check and a Social Security Number in order to get the taxes paid. However anyone can go buy a Social Security Number off of the streets, this is why we would do a background check on them first. Everything Johnson wants to do he has a backup plan if it does not succeed. He states that 50 years ago Mexican families illegally immigrated over to New Mexico to make better living or just to work which is not bad, however when their children having children and those children having children and for the most part they work hard to provide for their family. Trump only thinks about the immigrants that are “working” here for an example the

    In an interview, Donald John Trump, an American businessperson and a Republican candidate running for president, specified: “ The immigrants are bringing drugs, they’re bringing crime, and they’re rapists. It’s coming from Mexico. It’s coming from the south and Latin America and it’s coming, probably, from the Middle East, but we don’t know because we have no protection.” As a result of the immigrants coming into America, Trump wants to create the immigration plan. If Trump’s plan is carried out, the Mexicans would be unauthorized to enter America because of the “great great wall,” possible recessions and riots would take place, and all illegal immigrants including the birthright citizens will be forced to leave America.…

    Trump believes that illegal immigration is destroying U.S. taxpayers, and he believes that neither Republicans nor Democrats are helping the situation. Republicans don’t do anything about illegal immigration because some of their business supporters want cheap labor. Democrats look at illegal immigrants as potential Democratic voters (135-136). Both Democrats and Republicans may have their reasons for illegal immigrants to stay, but Donald Trump thinks that the parties need to put America’s interests first and that illegal immigrants need to return from whence they came. Trump then continues to discuss that illegal immigrants are by definition, lawbreakers, and refers to them as “illegal aliens” due to the fact that illegal immigrants are often members or violent gangs.…

    This shows the purpose of Trump’s side of the argument, which is that he wants to improve America by reducing illegal immigration rates by having a permanent border wall and increase fees on all border crossings. Following up on his belief, Trump wants to construct the new immigration policy that will, in his opinion, return the safety of laws for the American people. The immigration policy also proposes the mandatory return of all criminal aliens currently subsiding in the United States. Trump recognized the Obama Administration for releasing 76,000 aliens from custody of committing criminal convictions since 2013, but still wants to continue on that action by having all criminal aliens to be deported to their home countries by cancelling visas and adding an additional committed crime to being in a country illegally (Trump 3). This further contributes to Trump’s purpose to reduce illegal immigration in the United States and putting all American citizens as a priority in this country.…

    It is not about deporting a group of immigrants (http://www.chicagotribune.com/bs-ed-immigration-letter-20160831-story.html). Trump plans to promote a system of legal immigration that serves the well-being of the American (peoplehttps://www.donaldjtrump.com/policies/immigration). He is not even considering that if an illegal immigrant started a family in the United States that father or mother would be taken away from their children. This will cause the percentage of foster children and orphan increase, and most likely that increase will be…

    Even though we are willing to help, we should be stricter about the immigrants that are in this country, and Donald Trump has good ideas to do that.

He uses the fears of illegal immigration and terrorism as means of getting people to go vote for him.

    A controversial topic is the highlight of today’s news- Donald trump’s ideas to lengthen the U.S.-Mexico border, to deport “anchor babies” to Mexico, and the fact that the U.S. wouldn’t be economically stable without these immigrants. Now although Donald Trump is not yet president, many claim that he has a chance of winning the 2016 presidential election. Many fear this idea may be true because the U.S. population, of people who can vote, is for Trump. Theoretically speaking, Mr. Trump’s ideas would not only cause conflict with Mexico but he would also cause massive human rights violations.…

    Johnson also stated in his speech that he had his own immigration reform idea called the Comprehensive, Common Sense reform; this reform is like the S.744 bill, granting 11.5 million people citizenship and making changes to secure the border further. He believes that putting more money into border security will help lower the percentage of illegal immigrant’s crossing over into the country. Both Conservatives and Liberals want to have a secure border and to protect our country, but the problem is whether putting more money into border security will actually make a difference. In a debate over border security, Melysa Sperber stated her opinion about it saying, “Border controls have not proven effective at discouraging unauthorized flows. New efforts to enhance the border fence and to implement other barriers along the border would be costly, ineffective, and increase the vulnerability and victimization of border crossers” (Sperber 144).…
