So the main difference I see with the Census Q is that if it was on the Census, then the results of that Census would have been made public.

This new route POTUS is taking would not necessarily make it public, however, OUR POTUS Trump will make if public knowledge.

Of course, our intelligence community and the dept of labor, dept of immigration, etc., etc., etc., know exactly who is here as a citizen and who is not. When I became a citizen I received my citizenship papers - it's all documented. We already have that information and so did o'barry, but the diff. is that o'barry would not want the public to know.
