Trump estimates that immigrant welfare cost is about $300 billion a year. Illegal immigrants welfare cost is estimated at $100 billion a year, not counting access to US healthcare and education. The total immigrant subsidy is estimated at $384 billion a year.

Obama gave all 1.7 million minimum wage jobs to immigrants from 2008 to 2016. He took them from our US teenagers and gave them to the immigrants.  Not many jobs left for our 1.7 million new grads and negligible jobs for US college grads.
