I want to see legal status...the DNC wants to see Trump fail, even if they have to deport every illegal alien that ever existed, including digging up graves to get the dead ones out. That is so painfully obvious, I don't see how a blind man can't see it.
I think people would be ambivalent towards the wall if it didn't become a monument to Trump.

You cannot deal with a liar and and a man with no honor. Trump will cut the democrats throat. As long as he is president, just let republicans and trump have their way.

And remember, we already have a wall.

Sure, but isn't that just tying the wall to Trump, which means opposing the wall turns into opposing Trump, which is something many people want. Remember, more than 50% of the population voted against Trump and his agenda and the wall was a huge factor in that voting, as it was one of the more polarizing issues.
And remember, we already have a wall. It's clearly not addressing the problem. Is another, bigger wall (even though Trump keeps scaling back the scope of said wall) going to fix it? A wall doesn't address the cause of our illegal immigration issue. Other types of enforcement would.
I agree there are many levels to this than just a wall, but that doesn't mean a wall is not needed or that is it worthless as it fits in with many other pieces of immigration control.
