    The USA has a population nearing 400 million, you wouldn’t think a few hundred thousand migrants a year would be an issue.

          The figures used by Haley, DeSantis and Cotton — 8 million or 10 million — are totals of all migrant encounters at the border plus gotaways, and, in Cotton’s case, encounters at the northern border, coastal borders and airports.
