Its like you progressives don't pay attention.

Start with the public hearing the DHS secretary did last year.

She lays out "the wall". "The wall" is just pissing you off because Trump.

"The wall" actually isnt just a wall. The wall isn't 2000k miles. A whole host of other security measures were discussed.

Do yourself a favor and go watch her testimony. She laid it all out there.

Thank you for the effort and time you put into your post to attempt to explain something that seems elementary to Trump voters like myself.

Sometimes the government tries too hard to do all this comprehensive planning on very complicated problems.

My thinking is at least stop the leak.

That's step #1. Build a barrier and check that box off.

Step 2, deal with DACA and expired Visas

overall democratic votes were what +9M to republican? In an election where immigration was the closing message from trump/Rs?

Senate map looks like dogshit for Rs in 2020.

Keep buying into that fearmongering, friend. Hang on it all the way to another beat down in 2020.

How about a law not to hire and 100% tax on remittances that go outside the states from the western unions of the world. No tax of remittances globally if run through payroll.

Want to send your check to Guatemala? Cool. Run it through your legal employer

This assumes they would have done the work if not in prison, which we all know is not true.

But if you really want to stop illegal immigration then Mitt Romney has the right idea (self-deporting).

This was laughed at widely when proposed. Is everything fluid with the left?

Why do Mexicans deserve entry into the United States, other than proximity? Are you on Team Reconquista?

in a sense. Trump fully understands that he loses a significant portion of his xenophobic base, if he does not produce a wall for them

Ok, a couple of things...

1. I’m not your friend.

2. Overall national votes in a congressional election mean absolute dick. You sound as stupid as the people who say “more people nationwide voted for the 47 Dem Senators than for the 53 GOP Senators”. That’s nice. It’s not how our system works.

“Cultural suicide”

Yeah, that isnt some overly dramatic language

Nobody is going to deprive you of your ranch dressing or stop you from going to florida/georgia line concerts. You’ll be okay.

I don’t think there is any misconception at all. We have dozens of democrats at record calling for a wall, supporting a wall and voting for a wall and their reasons have always been based in the fact that illegal immigration is illegal, it’s unfair to those waiting in line legally and it’s unsustainable.

These are facts, video exists, audio exists and recorded votes exist. Please take you “misconception” non sense and shove it. Dems have benefited greatly from illegal immigration in all parts of the country. Btw, California, was a republican stronghold for decades until Ronald Regean of all people went along with an amnesty plan and Dems failed to deliver a secure border in return. With a stroke of a pen, Repubs lost California forever in less than a decade. Now Dems seek to repeat California all over again in places like Texas, AZ, GA, and FL. Once it’s done, it’s over for repubs and any shot of ever controlling the executive branch again. Both sides know it.
