Which funny definition of illegal alien are you using that adds up to 30 million?

I did some idle googling and neither “no legal status” nor “no lawful presence” amount to that many.



Probably remove status to people who had a legal status. Which they did already quite a bit in that administration.

If legal people are suddenly illegal, that sure helps their rhetoric.


Yes, that occurred to me, but the full number of foreign-born residents is in the 50-60mill range. I assumed if that was the goal they would have gone with the larger number cause it looks scarier, but no. There must be some weird middle ground where they only want to denaturalize some people, and I kinda want to know where they draw that line.
