The original 2000 mile physical wall will be less than half that distance, if it's built at all. Having Mexico pay for it will now 'be worked out in the formula.' Repealing DACA on day one has become a bipartisan solution effort.
Other than that, you're right.
The wall was just a dream. A total physical wall was always impossible but people really liked the thought of it.
Of course, Mexico won't pay for anything. They only have drug money.
But Trump has made efforts to do what can be done. Stop immigration from muslim countries. I'd rather have Mexicans coming in than muslims. They don't want to kill us, they just want to do our lawns.
If we do other things Trump is trying to do about illegal immigration, it will gradually diminish.
As far as DACA is concerned, I'm not sure what Trump can do or will do. It's a very explosive issue and he may have to back off for a while. But at least he WANTS to get rid of it which is more than Hillary would have wanted.
