Any promise to secure the border down the road is a false promise. They will find ways to slow walk it, redefine it, forget to fund it, fund it but reassign the funds, they have a thousand ways of not doing something they don’t want to do.
Securing the border must come first or it will never come at all.
And if they would just secure the border, and slow the flood to a trickle, all the other problems become manageable. Most of them go away over a few years.
Secure the border.
Enforce the law.
Let the chips fall.
This is not complicated.
False promises seem to be the ointment of the American Republican voters.
