Look at the transcript from yesterday and read any of the dozens of statements Dems have put out. Dems are happy to give money for real border security. But they won’t give one penny for trump’s stupid wall.

Fat Donnie is the reason we can’t have progress on border security.

From what I've read, the Democrats are offering temporary, reversible actions. They are opposed to a permanent solution, like a border wall.

Dems offered a budget that allocated an additional $1.3 billion for border security. That sounds plenty serious to me. But trump’s going to drive us into a ditch because he wants to build a stupid wall.

It's a drop in the bucket, and for what? Additional border agents that Dems will pull back if they get the WH.

Illegal immigration is at its lowest point in decades. Funding for border security has been going up year over year (including during Obama's presidency). ICE has more funding than all other federal law enforcement combined. There comes a point at which paying more for what you already have a lot of has diminishing returns. Maybe we should spend our money on things that actually improve American lives.

Because the border wall is the dumbest idea ever. And why blame the Democrats when the GOP had 2 years to make this happen? Total fail.

A wall to make illegal entry more difficult, combined with additional border agents, will be at least somewhat effective.

The wall has to be high enough so the violent ones can't throw rocks over it.

Are you a simpleton or just trolling?

A wall isn't a permanent solution.

A far better use of resources would be to: 1) beef up the immigration court system so that cases can be adjudicated more quickly. That there are illegal immigrants and asylum seekers lingering in limbo for years is ridiculous; and 2) step up prosecutions of those hiring illegal immigrants. Without jobs, there is no reason to come to America.

Exactly. The wall is a stupid, EXPENSIVE symbol. Money would be more effective elsewhere.

Why are Repubs opposed to simple measures like E-verify? And why do they not want penalties for employers who hire illegals? Are they afraid of alienating the farmers who reliably vote GOP? Looks like the GOP is perfectly happy with the status quo of having illegal workers entering.

It certainly does. They seem to want political theater, not a crackdown on businesses and employers who hire all the illegals. Or, propose a usable guest worker system for farmers and agricultural businesses.

+1. Why isn't ICE paying a call to the Iowa dairy farmers featured in Ryan Lizza's article.

It sounds like there won’t be too many agents to pull back.https://www.google.com/amp/s/thinkprogress.org/trump-has-nothing-to-show-for-his-expensive-border-policies-19c90f29e0de/amp/

That's just dumb. The vast majority of the US/Mexico border is barren wasteland. Throw all the rocks you want; the only thing you're hitting is a cactus.

I thought mexico was paying for the wall. Why did we allow him to change this narrative?! Dems need to have this be there #1 talking point.
