Same, and I agree with what you said, but would also like to expand on it:
> So now the Republicans are in charge. They are anti-immigration
The republican business owners/investors who employ illegal immigrants cheaply are not anti-immigration in the instances they benefit from directly.

They had an alternative in the 2016 and 2020 elections with Bernie "but he isn't a Democrat" Sanders, as he understood the topic better and more honestly than any other politician, but his presidential runs were sabotaged by corpo Dems and their media outlets.
It's not a coincidence that voters are regularly backed into a corner with "lesser of two evils" to vote for. Evil is evil. Democracy in the US is illusory.
