Immigration is one of our country’s core strengths. Don’t you remember that “melting pot” stuff from civics class?
Immigrants are a net positive for the economy, and for our country, so I don’t have a problem taking in as many that come. When immigrants come here, they bring their businesses with them and/or start new ones. And I like that.
That’s effectively what people said about every single group in the U.S.
Catholics, italians, protestants, irish, etc. Doesn’t matter, there will always be somebody around to be a bigot against some group. In the end it’s dumb because the melting pot is too big to really be effected. Even at 2m/year that’s a 0.6% change a year. Big whoop.

You can still screw up a melting pot by putting in the wrong stuff. Especially if you put in a lot of the wrong stuff.
