Already seeing responses to Trump's new Exec Order banning illegals from being counted in the Census:
"How are they going to enforce it?"
Yes, obviously Trump and his administration have not thought of that, and the federal gov't has NO WAY to tell who is/isn't a citizen.

SURPRISE!
Trump wrote that Executive Order about all federal departments & agencies checking their records & SHARING the records with each other to determine who is a citizen and who is not.

Anyone who spent the past 4 hours or so pontificating that this new Executive Order Trump signed today is essentially USELESS because there's NO WAY for the Federal gov't to determine who's a citizen & who's not?
Look...again.
Correct the record.
Thank you.

ADDENDUM: The whole reason Democrats fought to keep the citizenship question OFF THE CENSUS FORM was precisely because they desperately want illegals to be counted.
So Trump came up with a way to find out who the illegals are **using the federal records**.

A year ago when he revealed this, that he was going to have the feds check all the agency & department records to determine citizenship, it was BRILLIANT.
HOW do they stop him from doing that?
HOW does Pelosi or Schumer prevent it?
They can't.
Can't you see that they can't?

"Take THAT, Trump! You don't get to put the citizenship question on the census! You won't be able to keep illegal aliens from being counted! Mwhaahaaaa!!!!"
Trump:
"You morons.
You absolute morons. You think they only way it can be determined who the illegals are is by having THEM fill out a form and self-identifying themselves?"

So.
That executive order went into effect when Trump signed it on July 11, 2019, a year, just over a year ago.
They have been working on this for a year.
So now Trump was ready to do a FOLLOWUP Executive Order.
That came today.

A **year** ago the records searches began to determine who the citizens were & who was not a citizen.
Today Trump announces that every person determined by these federal records searches to **NOT BE A CITIZEN** will not be counted in the 2020 census.

Any census form filled out by someone who was determined to not be a citizen by these federal records searches will NOT be counted in the census total.
And there's NOTHING the Democrats can do to get these noncitizens counted now.
They are **shut down**.

"Democrats will just sue to stop this. Nothing will change."
Wrong. It's too late to sue. And besides, on what grounds do you sue the Executive Branch for use of it's own records to exclude illegals from a census of US citizens?
This is a nonstarter.

Why do you think Trump waited until NOW to do this?
It's like people don't think Trump is smart or something, they think he just does stuff and then steps on a rake.
Mystifying.

Well if they were counting on the HUGE INFLUX of illegal aliens they allowed in to get them more seats....

Oh, and did you know this? The Census....and the changing number of seats in the states....affects the # of electoral college votes that state has in the Presidential election. https://www.npr.org/2020/04/13/833546675/trump-officials-ask-to-delay-census-data-for-voting-districts-house-seats
Yup.
It's true, it's true!
It's true, it's true!
What's gonna happen here...is that when this new Census #'s are calculated...and those numbers in each state **exclude** those who are not citizens...some states are going to LOSE electoral college votes.
IF states like CA and others got a big electoral college BOOST out of a massive # of illegals residing in that state, then when this 2020 census takes effect without any of those illegals being counted this time...
then both the # of seats in Congress & EC votes will drop.
then both the # of seats in Congress & EC votes will drop.
The 2020 census #'s won't take effect until next year.
Good thing the Democratic Party has gone batshit baying-at-the-moon insane then. Even supposing they come back to their senses in 2021, it'll be far too late to stop Trump's successor.

We still have 100 more days to go of Dem. governors & mayors insisting everything is FINE, they don't need any federal help as violence & crime and mayhem grows and grows and GROWS in their cities.
Trump will do the smart things.
Watch.
