    I don’t think the major issue is pregnant invading soldiers.

    That’s because you’re using a logical, rational definition of “soldier”. Texas isn’t, and neither is Trump.

    They are treating immigration as an actual invasion. They are saying that “soldiers” are coming in to the US and having kids.

    They haven’t been quiet about what they are doing, but so far, we have been treating it as hyperbole. It isn’t hyperbole. They are acting on it.

      They think lots of stupid illogical things. But here in the real world, immigrants are not soldiers, and they’re not ever treated as soldiers by the legal system, so they are, in fact under the jurisdiction of the United States.

      Yet another case of Shroedinger’s immigrants. They are simultaneously fleeing their “s***hole” home country for purely economic reasons (not political oppression) while being so loyal to their home country that they will spend their entire lives raising children in a country they are invading.
