They sure as hell have you fooled. Why should we ever give these people legalization of status let alone citizenship. We have the rule of law, And what about the 4 million waiting their turn overseas who have completed all the paperwork?
Those waiting overseas that have completed their paperwork go to the front of the line provided they meet the requirement that they have financial where with all.
And nobody has fooled me. Without the border sealed everything else is a gimme. The border issue is the best the GOP we can get. It is the only hand. It is all that can be grabbed out of this debate. If the gauntlet is laid down on that then that is what will be achieved.
I’m as cynical as you are but I think more practical. The present situation is not going to change and will only become a bigger problem if not dealt with as I suggest. In other words, your way is not doable and only perpetuates more of what you don’t like.
Please take this as friendly discussion. I’m not trying to attack or be harsh. Happy to have your thoughtful reply.
