Trump asylum changes: Is the president's crackdown on legal immigration, and will he really do it?

Donald Trump has the last days before a crucial midterm election hammering down to a singular point: his administration will do anything it takes to secure the US-Mexico border.

The President's Policy Ideas, White House Podium, 15,000 Active Diligent Military Troops – The Administration's apparent knowledge of a virtually non-existent threat level – to building "massive tent cities" to house detained migrants.

There's just one question: Is any of this legal?

For starters, there are several claims that can not be resumed immediately: no, it can not upend the US Constitution and remove birthright citizenship from the 14th Amendment with an executive order.

Despite proposing the military treats rocks, it is likely that they will be uninvited.

A massive influx of migrants will arrive imminently at the border, as the caravan draws attention to the country and the vast majority of migrants on their journeys.

Mark Hertling, retired Army General, wrote on Twitter after Trump's speech that no military officer would allow a soldier to shoot an individual throwing a rock. "It would be an unlawful order," he wrote, citing the Law of Land Warfare.

However, other aspects of the president 's plans for overhauling.

Mr Trump said that it was going to be in the process of being destroyed.

"We're going to catch, we're not going to release," he said.

Under current protocol, many asylum seekers are released through their backlogged courts – a process that can take years.

"He's really trying to scare the American public into dangerous thugs," said Greg Chen, of the American Immigration Lawyers Association. "It's a classic strategy that goes back to 19th century nativist thinking."

The president and other authorities have long been in the process of seeking legal assistance. But many migrants are unaware of that guidance, and they have grown increasingly clogged.

Immigration officials have turned away asylum-seekers at border crossings because of overcrowding, telling them to return at a later date. Meanwhile, California, Arizona and Texas, backlogs have become especially important in California, Arizona and Texas, with San Diego's hand in hand.

Migrants who cross illegally and often seek asylum or some other form of protection.

Claims are spiked in recent years, and there is currently a backlog of more than 800,000 cases pending in immigration court.

Whether or not they are prepared for implementation.

US immigration laws make sure that migrants seeking asylum may be so But the president said he would limit that to official crossing points.

Whether the president signs an executive order or the approach to halting asylum between the nation and the ports of entry, or the rapid expansion of immigration executive orders Mr Trump has attempted to sign into effect.

In one example, it would be easier to make it easier to fire federal employees. In another case, there are several Muslim-majority nations, before the administration.

The president 's latest actions would likely face that same legal uphill battle, along with numerous logistical obstacles as well.

Currently, the US does not have a space to manage the large-scale detention of migrants, with most facilities at capacity.

What's more, these broad plans could be more effective than ever before, and they could be more expensive than $ 25bn. The vast majority of Americans in the United States, providing the largest number of immigrants in the United States.

But it is not even clear the president intends to follow up on any of these broad immigration ideas.

Criticism of the case of the day of the hearing.

Administration officials have told the Associated Press That Trump intends to invoke the same authority, but it was not clear that it was doing with Thursday's speech.

Mr Trump brought up several times during a political rally Thursday night in Columbia, Missouri. He railed against "birth tourism," where they will automatically become US citizens. And he denounced "chain migration," where these new citizens then brought their extended families into the country.

"You're coming into the country – you're like two months old … and you're gonna bring 'em all – your aunts and uncles and grandfathers and lots of people," he said.
