> She wants to provide it, or she wants others to provide it? How many people is she personally willing to host in her home and materially support?

She wants to provide. And she’d break herself to support as many as possible at her own expense if she could.

If everyone like her was allowed to, there wouldn’t be any cost to anyone else.



Why doesn't she spend her time & money to build housing in Mexico? Surely it (the housing and the cost of living there) would be way cheaper than in the US...


No idea, never discussed it.

Out of interest, why not let the migrants build their own houses? It’s not like houses are a finite resource.


You can, but you need to do proper zoning and follow building codes. Otherwise shanty towns happen, then a hurricane rolls through and everyone dies.
