  1. The Dems won't support a wall at the border, but I'll bet they enjoy security outside their homes and offices.
    Good luck everyone else.

  2. 90 days for all illegals to turn themselves in, they will be processed and deported at there own expense at which point they can apply to come back the legal way behind those who were already doing so. For those who don't turn themselves in it is from that point on a felony to be caught here without legal status. Those caught are fined heavily, they can work it off in prison, and then are deported. Start fining and jailing those harboring illegals, politicians included. Better security measures whatever is going to work (probably a combination of things) need to be implemented. Is a wall the best solution, probably not but may be needed in some areas along with other measures. I guarantee this would deter the majority of future illegals from ignoring the laws of our country. I'd wager the only people who would risk it at that point would be people smuggling drugs or other contraband.

  3. Jeff Merkley is my senator from Oregon this man is out of touch with us the people of his district . What this 25 billion will save in the long run is a drop in the bucket for what it will save. An he says that he is going to run for prrsident he wouldn't make a good sized pimple on trumps ass he is stupid……

  4. I say we take bake the $10B which we pledged last week to Central America and Mexico and use it to build the wall. Less corruption and more effective immigration policy.

  5. Democrats try to position themselves as moderates for 2020. Doesnt matter. Any old man candidate on the left will get pushed out of the primary by the DNC whose prized candidate will lose to trump anyways

  6. Democrats seem to prefer self-delusion on security issues and more. Sartre called that false-consciousness. Maybe because it sells as their brand of existential cornucopia such as the USA has too few people with just 330 million people and infinite wilderness. They are like the Russian appanage princes of a thousand years ago that kept subdividing their inheritance. Dostoyevski wrote a good book about a landless prince named 'The Idiot'. Walls remain a very ordinary security measure used in innumerable applications. Of course they cannot stop all cross border illegal traffic. The wall is a mereological element- a part of the security equation.
