if previous administrations thought like that, then you would be living in whatever country your ancestors came from with no hope of coming to america, and america would be populated exclusively by Native Americans.

Which "theirs" are you asking about?
I'm all for allowing immigration to our country. Legal immigration. And in reasonable numbers.
There are law abiding people from all over the world with skill sets that we desire that would like to come here. And I say let them come. But if they have no regard for the law when they come, I don't see them having much respect for the law later.
So if we get enough of the BAD, that's the way our country will go. We have every right to be selective with our immigration policies. Other countries do and don't apologize for it.

I imagine people asked that when there was an influx of Irish, Italians, Germans, Poles, Jews, Hmong and any other nationality you can think of. In early American history, the French, English, Spanish and Natives didn't like the idea, either. BUT the Mexicans are the first to come into our country and insist that we speak Spanish, change our laws, and accomodate their reluctance to become Americans. That is intolerable and an insult to all the peoples who came and worked hard to be citizens of this country.

When we get another Great Depression, we will blame someone. Unemployment is a great motivator. Perhaps we will torpedo refugee boats seeking asylum. Vietnam did it to a boatload of Bangledesh boat people.

"Keep ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
Which phase or words do you not hold true as an American, as they are incised on the inside of the Statue of Liberty?
Be true to the words, or erase them.
It's your call to honor...
