Can we just help people get jobs who live here? We have so many problems in our country. To me, this is so basic. We obviously should be taking care of our own. We’re Americans. Like, why can’t we take care of Americans? And how did that get to be bad? Like, I’m trying to figure it out? How did it get to be bad that we should be thinking about the people who were here first before we start worrying about the people coming in?
