> When speaking to Trump supporting friends who employ illegal immigrants they specifically defend that it is only the "bad ones."

They still feel this way because their news sources don't tell them about restaurants being raided and the entire kitchen being arrested or ICE raids on agriculture.

Problems aren't problems until it happens to them.

Yes- that's a big problem. The business owners are getting away with massive employment fraud, tax fraud, and any number of OSHA/employee law violations. They need to be arrested and brought to trial.

If you can't run a business without breaking the law (including illegal labor), then that business shouldn't exist.

I agree, however the law must be applied uniformly and consistently for an even playing field. It is not, which allows the government to “pick” winners and losers via selective prosecution.

The whole situation has been bungled so badly.
