He would certainly be applauding everyone/entity who brought people into their homes, military bases, etc.

Jesus never advocated in favor of the Roman empire...He never advocated forced compliance with state coerced beneficience...It is a fact that the more the nation's heartless bureaucracies confiscate from hard working people, the less generous they are...Not to mention that abortion and homosexuality were considered abominations to him and his father.
