Immigration issue all about controlling votes

Stewart B. Epstein, Rochester, N.Y.
Could it be that ultra-conservative author Ann Coulter has unwittingly told us the real reason why President Trump and the conservative Republicans in the media and Congress are so against accepting legal and illegal immigrants into the country and don’t want to offer citizenship to them and even want them to be deported?
Coulter has argued that the real reason why Democrats are so concerned about the plight of immigrants is that they believe that if they can get most of their votes one day, that they will probably always win the presidency and control the Congress. Thus, the Republicans simply want to prevent this from happening. If so, then it’s really all about votes and who will control the presidency and the Congress.
