Signing a DACA amnesty will be an unforgiveable transgression that he'll regret. He can promise a wall from sea to shinning sea and it still won't gain our trust back if he signs an illegal alien amnesty!
I have always said and always believed the wall was at best unnecessary - at worst, misdirection

I'm not disagreeing on that - never have. As I said, I believed Pres. Trump may have thought a wall would work. I also was naive enough to believe any president who spoke so tough about illegals and wanted to go to the extreme of building a wall, would be gung ho to enforce the laws he already had at his disposal.

That has been my disappointment.

I'm just hoping the people begin to realize it for what it is.

I don't want a wall, I don't want any more laws, I just want the laws we have enforced and really enforced.

I've been waiting for that since Reagan gave amnesty and we were made all manner of promises that didn't happen.
