So someone trying to escape a country full of crime, violence, government corruption and doesnt want to wait years to do it should automatically labled a rapist? Especially by someone who's been on record bragging about sexual assualt. Hmmmm okay... 

If you want to call asylum seekers rapists, then you're a pretty shitty person.

Asylum Seekers can claim for asylum.  So far over 14,000 people in 2019 have been successful in this respect.  You may check these numbers yourself: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asylum_in_the_United_States#Refugee_quotas

However no one mentioned asylum seekers.  This topic is about illegal migrants.  People trying to enter the country illegally.  It seems you don't understand what this term actually means.

  • It's not people who file for a permit to live/work in a different country.  That's Immigration.
  • It's not people who approach Immigration control as they are trying to escape awful situations.  That's Asylum.

Illegal migration is when people try to cross into another country without alerting authorities, and in fact try to evade them.  Now why would someone choose this instead of going through migration controls?  The most common reason by far is to hide previous convictions that would otherwise prevent them from entering.

It's sad that these differences need to be explained.  But the bottom line is this.  If you're not crossing the border via the authorities, you're are trying to evade them, and you're trying to evade them for a reason.

Yeah, you people give too much credit to Trump for being cryptic. You may differentiate between asylum seekers and illigal immigrants but I assure you Trump does not. 

The same asylum seekers Trump doesn't want in the country to begin with https://time.com/5604189/donald-trump-mexico-deal-safe-third-country/

And you're fabricaring the notion the sole reason someone would enter the country illegally is the evade the law. Oy vey
