I think not securing the borders will destroy the party by frustrating the voters from coming out.
Do I think that is good? No.
Do I think the Republican party causes their own problems?
Heck yeah! The don't listen to a vast majority of the people and the act when in power like they are a weak minority.
Not securing our borders will give the Democrats a permanent electoral majority as the illegals are included in the electoral system.
You nailed it- the GOP won't listen and then won't stand up for conservatives even when they can. It's not that I expect the GOP to do everything I want them to do- I know that is not possible- I do want them to listen and understand what I want, and why I want it.
