The move effectively achieves one of Trump’s long-term policy goals of curbing immigration, making use of the health and economic crisis brought by the virus

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump said on Monday he will suspend all immigration into the United States temporarily through an executive order in response to the coronavirus outbreak and to protect U.S. jobs.

The White House declined to offer further details about the reasoning behind the decision, its timing, or its legal basis. The development comes as the U.S. death toll from the virus topped 42,000 on Monday, according to a Reuters tally. In light of the attack from the Invisible Enemy, as well as the need to protect the jobs of our GREAT American Citizens, I will be signing an Executive Order to temporarily suspend immigration into the United States!

Too bad Canada doesnt have a leader like him.

The moves of a man desperate to hold onto political power. politicizingCOVID19

Then you have Blackface the groping cottage coward using the RCMP as porters still carrying the bags for illegals crossing at Roxham RD.

This will devastate their farming industry..immigrants, many undocumented or without working visas, keep crops planted, tended and harvested..

Derp.

That’s fine

Good for him and them.

red meat for the racist base and nothing more CPC demanding it in 3 ..2..1

They should do that in Canada.

Who would want to go there 🦠

Awesome, to bad Canada's so called leader can't be that smart!

First he closes the borders, and now this.

Well that took a longer than I thought it would.

Wish we could do the same in Canada. And also deport the Chinese nationals

As a proud legal immigrant to the US and ultimately, a naturalized US citizen, all I can say is 'Thank-you President Trump'. Real leaders lead, fake leaders like PMJT emerge from a cave daily like Punxsutawney Phil and recite gibberish and empty platitudes. 💪🏽RealLeadership

That's President Trump to you National Post.

It’ll be interesting to see how much activity the closed Roxham road gets now...

C19...serious enough to shut down immigration, but not serious enough to stop the potential spread within the USA population. Which is it?

Will go down as Greatest President ever. Love watching the destruction of globalism and everyone who thought it was a great idea. Will be re-elected in landslide.

A real leader
