The Trump project was built on a myth of the undeserving illegal immigrant. The reality was a sustained administrative effort to make immigration illegal even for the most deserving. https://www.forbes.com/sites/chantaldasilva/2020/12/10/trump-administration-finalizes-rule-that-would-enforce-near-total-bans-on-asylum/

Excellent thread here, and a reminder that a good deal of the Trump agenda will be undone because they refused to listen to reasonable concerns of the public. The Administrative Procedures Act of 1946 did more to block authoritarianism than the entire GOP.
