Of course it doesn’t.

Don’t forget that immigrants are participants in the economy. If they are removed there are fewer customers.

Without immigrants, the US is losing population. That is fact.

The argument makes sense if you value numeric population over culture.
Which culture are we valuing here? European?

Or do you mean the culture of Indigenous Americans?

Or do you mean the culture of Africans who were brought to the USA against their will as a part of the slave trade?

98.9% of Americans are immigrants or descendants of immigrants.
