Here again is where Michael Moore confuses legal immigration with illegal immigration. Apple co-founder Steve Jobs was the son of a Syrian immigrant, after all. America could be deporting the illegal immigrant who will cure cancer (although Joe Biden said he'd already cured cancer as we know it) or save us from that looming asteroid that threatens to collide with Earth.
Michael Moore says deported migrants could have cured cancer, stopped 'asteroid that’s gonna hit us in 2032' https://t.co/p0RSfiNj4W

Fox News reports:
Progressive filmmaker and activist Michael Moore on Tuesday wrote a lengthy blog post warning that by deporting illegal immigrants, America may be missing out on the next equivalent of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs or one that will save the world from a killer asteroid.
Moore’s piece, "Our Muslim Boy Wonder," used Jobs’ origins as the son of a Syrian migrant to critique the Trump administration’s deportation efforts.
"Who's really being removed by ICE tonight?" Moore asked. "The child who would've discovered the cure for cancer in 2046? The 9th-grade nerd who would’ve stopped that asteroid (sic) that’s gonna hit us in 2032? Do we care?"
As Tom Homan has said, they're focusing on the "worst of the worst" … murderers, child rapists, gang members. ICE isn't currently interested in that child who would have cured cancer if we let them stay.
But according to the Democrats, illegal immigrants are here to pick vegetables and clean toilets, not cure cancer. Here's Pramila Jayapal:
Rep. Jayapal: “We can't let them deport the millions of families across this country... Look at the food on your table. Think about who picked it.”

As the White House's Stephen Miller told CNN's Jake Tapper, only 1 percent of illegal aliens work in agriculture. The majority settle in major metropolitan cities.

They still can go for it in their own countries.

That’s a big stretch of the word ‘Could’.

That's ok, tell them to do it from their country.

That's quite a promotion from "but, who'll pick our crops!?".

Again, note how Moore makes no distinction between immigrants and illegal immigrants. The immigrant who cures cancer would most likely come to the United States on a student visa to study at our universities.
Same is true for all the aborted babies. One of them could have cured cancer or stopped an asteroid.
