I don't know how supposedly reasoned people can overlook the inevitable consequence of amnesty for 20 million people who would vote democrat by a 2-to-1 margin. I think some are hoping it would help shore-up SS, but I've read reputable studies that concluded amnesty would be a net drain on SS funding. I think the GOP likes to perpetually come in second in a two party race and let the Democrats implement the Big Government they really want.

Winner!
Hard to play the patronage game if the pork fountain were ever shut off. Notice how the "other side" can always find at least one "defector" for crucial votes?
