Gallup Poll Shows 42 Million from Western Hemisphere Would Move to the United States

The numbers of foreigners eying Biden’s open border are more than a little scary. A recent Gallup poll found that 42 million persons in Latin America and the Caribbean would like to relocate to the United States.

That number is sobering enough, but foreigners from around the world now travel to the Mexican border to enter the US illegally or by making asylum claims (which were rejected 99 percent of the time under Trump). A migration-themed Reuters article from March 12 noted, “Tijuana also has a large population of Haitian migrants as well as migrants who traveled from Africa.”

So looking only at aliens from the western hemisphere is short-sighted, because they are coming from around the world to grab Biden’s America-destroying freebies.

A 2018 Gallup poll looked at the worldwide desire to migrate and found that 15 percent of the world’s people — that’s more than 750 million — would like to relocate. One third of sub-Saharan Africans would do so, the highest percentage worldwide. The top choice was the United States, with 158 million desirous of moving here.

Meanwhile, a 2020 Gallup poll reported World Grows Less Accepting of Migrants. So all that imported cultural diversity has not worked out so well in actual practice.

Here’s a blog about the recent Gallup poll:

THE CHAIRMAN’S BLOG: 42 Million Want to Migrate to U.S., Gallup Polls, March 24, 2021

Here are questions every leader should be able to answer regardless of their politics: How many more people are coming to the southern border? And what is the plan?

There are 33 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. Roughly 450 million adults live in the region. Gallup asked them if they would like to move to another country permanently if they could.

A whopping 27% said “yes.”

This means roughly 120 million would like to migrate somewhere.

Gallup then asked them where they would like to move.

Of those who want to leave their country permanently, 35% — or 42 million — said they want to go to the United States.

Seekers of citizenship or asylum are watching to determine exactly when and how is the best time to make their move.

In addition to finding a solution for the thousands of migrants currently at the border, let’s include the bigger, harder question — what about all of those who would like to come? What is the message to them?

What is the 10-year plan?

330 million U.S. citizens are wondering. So are 42 million Latin Americans.
