Should there be Spanish second official language in the United States?

There isn’t an official language in the US. English is the de facto official language. It’s not the same. I do think that we should have a recognized official language. Above and beyond the millions in entitlements we give away to deadbeats and criminals, we spend millions more making sure foreigners understand the full depth and breadth of entitlements available to them. We used to expect a modicum of effort toward assimilation. Now we are expected to change for them.
Meanwhile, US veterans who were born and raised here, and literally sacrificed for this country can’t get a shred of respect in return, let alone the same benefits immigrants are getting.

If anything China will be the second language. Our saving grace is ccp is more dogmatic racist then America. Land and sea silk road movment is falling apart for demanding payment pissing on the potential soft power 2x as strong as USAID which we are pissing on.

For Spanish as a second language. I mean the educated red neck sees broken southern accent Spanish speaking as a valuable investment. It really isn't making Hispanic people's life easier but it's making life easier for the white redneck.

The native Indian Americans are the only true/real Americans. They are the indigenous people of the United States. An ancestral dna test can prove white people born in the USA are still genetically European and black people are genetically African.

Both French and Spanish are offered in US high schools.

You only have to look at the chaos having French as a second official language in Canada or Swedish in Finland has caused to see why it would be a bad idea.

No, American is the official language here,

The United States doesn't have an official language, not that "American" is a language, anyway. A number of U. S. states have state official languages, apparently.

@DryGermanGuy President Trump recently issued an Executive Order making English the offical language of thre US.

[DryGermanGuy]

As you certainly know, an executive order addresses only the executive branch and has no legislative standing. Without congress codifying it, it has no permanent legal binding.

@DryGermanGuy No, it means that the next president can change it. For now, English is the official language on the US.
I would not want to be the President that changes this law to make Spanish or Chinese the national language.

[DryGermanGuy]

Again, this is no law at all. It's basically a work order for all federal executive employees to henceforth have English as the official language. The silliness of how this sounds should aptly demonstrate the limits of execute orders.

Sure. Why not? Official is meaningless. Reality makes it true
