there is no down side to hiring undocimented workers. the idea is to keep the undocumented employees terrorized so that they are afraid to ask for a raise or complain about working conditions.

the "conservative" immigration frenzy is mostly just rhetoric for their unemployable base. the wall is symbolic, and certainly trump does not expect it to actually keep anyone out.
