DACA is just a drop in a very large bucket. As long as it is ended and a wall is built, I’ll be happy as a clam. These dreamers can be assimilated and we can provide some necessary hoops for them to jump through and get rid of the ones with criminal records.
Obama left this group in limbo like they were Palestinians but the situation can be dealt with compassionately but with national security at the forefront. Let’s not miss the forest for the trees.
DACA for a wall doesn’t cut it.
DACA for a wall, real border enforcement, the end of chain immigration, and more faster deportations in general, might be OK.
That wasn’t the “deal” and no they won’t assimilate. We can “feel” like they will but stats say otherwise.
1) 25% DONT speak English and 46% have “basic English proficiency skills “ https://truthfeednews.com/large-percentage-of-obamas-dreamers-cant-even-speak-english/
2) we didn’t vote to have the football moved further back. You believe if he relents the lobbyists will wake up the next morning and say “well that’s the end of that no more lobbying for me”
3) Nothing in the history of this country (post 1950) shows immigrants integrate fairly quickly if at all. “Census Bureau: 44.6% in California Don’t Speak English at Home; 35.6% in Texas; 34.5% in NM; 31.7% in NJ; 31.0% in NY”

4) nothing to this point has led anyone to believe the wall will be built. His own party doesn’t want it, the democrats don’t want it and the lobbyists will fight it. Until Congress is turned upside down the wall will not be built
The problem is that every amnesty encourages more illegal immigration, as the law-breakers anticipate that with the passage of time and the increase of law-breaking, there will be yet another amnesty.

Count me in. Gimme the wall!
