By Monica Showalter

For Democrats, their opposition to a wall at the U.S. southern border where thousands of illegals are pouring in isn't about "women and children." It's not about compassion; it's not about a wall's 'effectiveness,' (we know a wall is effective); it's not about the environment; it's not about locking up the legal Latino-American vote; it's not even (all that much) about doling goodies to indigents to expand the underclass, and with it, the size of government.

It was always about more voters for Dems.  Their claimed concerns are all shams. Power is all Dems care about. Get them on gov. assistance and keep them there. Permanent Dem voters.
