“Merit based immigration...” theguardian.com/us-news/2016/n…
“Merit based immigration” enthusiast @realDonaldTrump’s grandfather “...emigrated to the US aged 16 initially to escape poverty, attracted by the gold rush.” And then when he failed at finding gold ... DURING THE GOLD RUSH... 
And WHY was Merit Based Grandpa prevented from practicing self-deportation back to his own country? Spoiler alert: his grandson would one day inherit the family bone spurs... 
But at least old non-English speaking, can’t find gold, military service-dodging Friedrich wasn’t coming to America from a “shithole” country racked by poverty, making him basically an economic refugee... oh wait... ushistory.org/us/25f.asp 
Well, anyway, at least President Merit Based had a red blooded American mom with no icky foreign poverty in HER background, to balance things out. Oh... newyorker.com/news/news-desk…
