Is this the hill you want to die on, DACA ppl?



CNN poll: DACA not worth a shutdown, except to Democrats
56% overall say approving a budget agreement to avoid a shutdown is more important than continuing the DACA program, while just 34% choose DACA over a shutdown.

What's stunning is that 34% of Americans would shut the government down over illegal aliens getting an undeserved benefit.

They can't cave. Trump is going to have to provide them an off ramp. Hopefully he gets something for it.

Eh, that number scares me a bit. 34%, even in a biased CNN poll, is a high return for that specific of a question.

I think it's possible Trump wins the branding war here, but the sheer volume of sources that aren't going to touch the Schumer Shutdown label is always going to be formidable.

It's not that they have bigger sticks than we do, FNC, etc. are heavy hitters. But with more comes credibility and saturation we just can't match. Thankfully everyone sees Trump's tweets and CNN will stupidly show Trump tweeting "the Schumer Shutdown" every 4 minutes, thereby doing his work for him even though nobody on the network is going to say that.

I can't believe it's that high. As always subtract at least 10 percent as they vastly over sample libtards

86% of Americans back DACA. There's little reason for them to cave on this.

That stuff is so fleeting

Most Americans don't know what DACA is

Most Americans don't know who the VP is

Tax bill was unpopular but is going to end up pretty popular. DACA probably is popular, but how important is it to those who favor it? Trump is probably unpopular, but in a vacuum. Put him up against Elizabeth Warren and see how it works, etc.

Backing DACA is not the same as shutting the govt down over DACA.

I don't see how any side "wins" here. Somehow, we have a shutdown that few Americans want over an issue most Americans agree on. GOP congressional leaders look weak having the majority and not getting something done. Dems look bad forcing the DACA issue when there's still time on the clock for a deal. The dealmaker in Chief looks ineffective at herding the cats of Congress.

The whole thing is stupid and everyone involved deserves to stink of it.
