See those statements threatening a government shutdown over the wall in September? The Wall funding is coming up in September. Do you think it's a coincidence that the date they are threatening to sue about us is September 5th? The cost of keeping us legal is the stupid wall. They probably planned this all along. Trump needs the wall to claim some form of "win", especially because the health care bill is dead. The only way they will get enough votes to fund the wall is if some democrats cross over. The only way that will happen is if Republicans are holding a gun to their heads. We are the gun. The Republican scum are playing with our lives over the stupid, useless wall. It would explain why there has been silence from the democrats. They can't do anything to save DACA except accept the Wall in exchange for legal status for us. Question is whether they think we are worth however much the Republicans are asking for Wall funding this cycle. It's like 1.5 billion, less than the cost of the whole Wall, but a ton of money nonetheless. I guess we better start supporting the stupid wall.

It's not only the wall though. They've included money in the upcoming budget fight to hire 5,000 CBP and 1,000 ICE agents and other stuff. But I think this is probably right

That "Republican scum" is what is going to save our asses, stop watching TV...

At least they are putting the pressure to fix our situation fast. And i agree with the wall,it wont stop illegal immigration but at least it will make it harder for coyotes to cross people over and stop situations like ours from happening.

Republicans are scum. The wall isn't going to get funded. Border crossings are at an all time low anyways.

Wall is stupid. Let them have the stupid shit in return for DACA legislation.

It is just so simple.

If it's really a daca/wall trade they want, we should deal. The government already wastes billions on useless projects.

Exactly.

But will Dem leadership make the smart move?

That is the question.

Morality is a luxury.

You are trying to virtue signal.

We are trying to survive here.
