I know he was trying to get the House conservatives to work with the Amnesty democrats on a compromise. I can’t remember the details, but Duncan Hunter reeled him back in.

He was never reeled in by Hunter or anyone else. He kept pushing this ridiculous scheme until he realized that 88% of his fellow Reps opposed it. I don't trust him on the amnesty issue. If we have an amnesty, the US is destroyed with the stroke of a pen. Everythning else is just rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic

I know he got some knocks on this site, but I don't know they were deserved.

Perhaps the tenor of the times was that a conservative politician, like Pence, should have just said “No” to the whole topic and not touched it with a ten foot pole. Trying to make a constructive contribution may have been unwise politically. Kudos to Hunter for his let's just put up the fence stand.

Yeah! he did.
