Do you believe the wall is a prelude to comprehensive immigration policy reform?

The bipartisan plan, crafted in December, and rejected by Trump, because Ann Coulter insulted his manhood, was the right step in that direction.

The plan proposed by the Democrats in 2015, was as well, but that was rejected by the GOP controlled Congress, as expensive (it allocated more than $5B for border security).

The new House presented a plan, that moves us in that direction, during their first effective day on the job. McConnell refused to discuss it.

Trump's wall? No, it's not a prelude to anything other than the 2020 Presidential campaign, and Trump filed as a candidate on his first day in office.
Haven't we been through this "comprehensive" immigration policy issue/debate a few times under various administrations (the discussion of one anyway)? With the stubbornness we see on both sides, that may be a good way off.

We were making progress. Some of these issues are supported by both parties.

It is in Trump’s hands now, and he oy cares about sound bites

@soar2newhighs There is only stubbornness on the Republican side because they are obsessed with "amnesty" and white supremacy.
