Trump’s Immigration Plan The 2016 election year has been very eventful due to many point of views given by the presidential candidates. One candidate who managed to catch America’s attention is Donald Trump. In Trump’s speech, “Immigration Reform That Will Make America Great Again”, he states his plans on improving restrictions against illegal immigrants in the United States. Contrasting Trump’s ideas are Julia Preston, Alan Rappeport and Matt Richtel’s article from the New York Times, “What Would It Take For Donald Trump to Deport 11 Million and Build a Wall?”, which explains how Trump’s ideas are not possible and how Trump does not follow up on his statements.

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.

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.

His referral to an official organization betters his background knowledge on immigration in the United States, which shows his audience that he understands what his words mean. Donald Trump also uses statistics to back up his information, such as explaining how today, nearly 40 percent of black teenagers and 30 percent of Hispanic teenagers are unemployed, which proves that America’s immigration policies have ruined the middle class, even though they are the major backbone of America itself. Opposing Trump’s speech, the New York Times article also provides strong, credible sources to provide their own
