Why the “wall” works for the President and dooms the Dems

The largest voting block wants “the wall” in some form. By largest voting block I mean the largest plurality that agrees and supports any one political issue. They don’t want a fifth century wall they want a 21st century technology filled border barrier added to the areas where nothing exists together with more and better border security along the entire border it’s his signature issue and the one that will get him re-elected. It’s a win if the Dems continue to do zero. It’s a win if more “wall” goes up. Him sitting tight while the Senate kills any House approved bills works to his advantage even more daily. Meanwhile the Dems are the obstructionists.

Actually we do need a barrier, call it a wall if you like. I lived and worked on the border, from Brownsville to Eagle Pass for 17 years. I could sit in my office at the hospital and watch the illegals crossing over the dry river bed just to the east of the legal crossing bridge. I also had to dodge many an illegal alien running across the two lane highways between Laredo and Eagle Pass. Don't sit there and pretend they're not a problem because they ARE a problem. And you KNOW they're a problem. The liars are the ones who try to claim the illegals are not a problem and a decent person has to wonder why they'd lie. Of course a moron doesn't wonder, they just sop up the shit and swallow it.
