You see if the dreamers are to succeed they have to compromise. Give the lunatic Trump his goddam wall.
It's not only Trumps wall. It is wanted by the people, like me, who voted for him also.
(Mic) — President Donald Trump will have to mess with Texas if he wants to build his "big, beautiful" wall. According to a new poll from the nonpartisan Texas Lyceum, residents of the Lone Star State overwhelmingly oppose Trump's planned border wall and support a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants. Of 1,000 Texans surveyed, 90% support a path to citizenship, while 61% oppose the proposed wall and 58% disapprove of the way the president has handled immigration overall.

2012 - 93% to 6% African American Vote
2016 - 88% to 8% African American Vote
This to me was striking in 2016. All that racist talk and talk of unity in the DNC and the DNC lost 5% and the RNC gained 2%. Keep those tax cuts coming and jobs and that will grow in 2020.
Hispanic Whites also left the DNC and more voted RNC even after all of the wall talk.

Today, people can fly over any such wall in private "drones" with the same ease they walked the land long ago.

I don't think you understand how drones work.
You try to have a drone fly you somewhere

Trump is jealous, because China built the world's biggest and longest wall.
So, he want's to build a big beautiful wall in America, to compete.
But, China built that wall in an age when wall's mattered. People moved about on foot, or on horse back.
Today, people can fly over any such wall in private "drones" with the same ease they walked the land long ago.
So, the wall is an outdated shield to human traffic, that is no where near as effective as that China Wall was when it was built.
The only thing a Wall does today, is make the statement "this is my land, and that is yours". It's nothing but a "marker", like neighbors put up in their residential neighborhoods. But, it can't stop people who intend to walk on your grass from doing so.

“This statistic reportedly has been confirmed by DHS, but the Obama administration refuses to release that information,” Sessions said. “Using that rate as a baseline, that means approximately 408,870 illegal aliens evaded detection, for a grand total of roughly 817,740 illegal entries into the United States last year.”

Until one side or the other stops with political posturing, no one gets to claim the high ground.

That's for 2016. That's almost one million illegals trying to cross the border in a single calendar year.
