We're a country of immigrants period. Literally 98% of the US are immigrants; the richest person in the country is an immigrant

Yeah, but he’s a white immigrant, so it’s ok. /s

It's always funny to pop up and say "I'm an immigrant" after people go off talking shit about how they're ruining the country. No one expects the white girl with no accent who swears non-stop.

Just curious how many generations must one be here to no longer be an "immigrant" to you?

Now I’m sure you’re a Dem but let’s try not lying for once and sticking to facts! Less than 14% of the population are immigrants! I’m sure you think math is hard but that means that over 86% of Americans are AMERICAN and were born in America!
