"Tens of millions"? Really?
Even if we take 20 million, that's 75% of the total population of Venezuela or half of the population of Colombia. There simply are not enough people in South America for these kinds of numbers.

There are 45 million Spanish speakers in the United States - in 1950 there were effectively zero. In 1980 the US was 95% white. We've seen the largest demographic change in history in just a few decades with the trend accelerating across every white country (and now Japan) at the same time.
Trump isn't doing the world any favor because the famine that is coming due to the Iran war and second order effects such as fertilizer costs will result in an even bigger migration to the West.
Chuck Schumer:
>“We have a population that is not reproducing on its own with the same level that it used to. The only way we’re going to have a great future in America is if we welcome and embrace immigrants – the Dreamers and all of them, because our ultimate goal is to help the Dreamers but [also] to get a path to citizenship for all 11 million or however many undocumented there are here,”
Chuck Schumer, who is massively understating the number of illegals here, puts it at at least 11M. So yeah tens of millions is a realistic ballpark.
That 11M represents decades of migration. It's not getting tripled with the flip of a switch.
12.2 million Mexicans live in California alone.
