By Ana Campoy


The effects of Trump’s “keep out” message, however, could crumble in coming months if he can’t fulfill his threats. And for all his bravado, Trump faces serious obstacles in carrying out his vision of wiping out illegal immigration; they will take time and resources to overcome. One major bottleneck is the chronically backlogged immigration court system. There are currently more than 570,000 pending cases, according to Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, or TRAC, which compiles immigration data.
