Donald trump is the United states current presidential elect. Throughout his campaign he pushed for strong change on immigration into the country. Mr. Trump has three main objectives that he wishes to see through during his presidential term. The first goal is to address the eleven million undocumented immigrants residing in the country today.

He believes that in doing so many illegal immigrants would be kept out. He has also stated that Mexico will pay for the development and construction of the wall. This may prove difficult to achieve but can be done in several ways. The first option would occur through an increase of tariffs on imports and exports. The second option would be to restrict or increase the cost of Visas as they are a privilege and not a right. The third and most viable option would be to sever Mexico’s remittances. Each year Mexican Nationals many of whom are illegal send $24 billion in remittances back to their home country.

During his political campaign Donald had different stance on how he was going to prevent potential threats from entering into the country. His first stance was to bar immigrants based on their religion. Muslim’s were the main target of Mr. Trump’s remarks. However, he gave no statement as to how he would be able to do this as religion is not easily identified. If America was to ban countries with a Muslim population over fifty percent, then 46 countries would be marked. The result would be nearly one million immigrants prevented each year. Later into his political campaign the president elect changed his stance to focus on countries with a proven history of terrorism against the United States. This method would prevent nearly 5.5 million immigrants from coming into the country each year. The regions barred would consist of mainly middle eastern lands but Britain would also be crossed
