Democrats can win by giving Trump his wall
Gregory Bull | AP
By Ramesh Ponnuru, Bloomberg Opinion • December 16, 2018 7:00 am
Our arguments over a wall at the U.S.-Mexico border encapsulate much of what’s wrong with American politics. The wall has become a much larger issue than it deserves to be, and the parties have been unable to make a deal over it that ought to be easy to make.
The debate is overwrought on both sides. It was a mistake for immigration hawks to become as fixated as they have on building a wall on the southern border. Even if it is completely successful in stopping illegal border-crossings, it won’t stop people from coming here legally and then overstaying their visas. Estimates of the fraction of illegal immigrants who get here that way range from two-fifths to two-thirds.

Wall or no wall, any deal allowing any or all illegals to stay MUST be accompanied by an elimination of chain migration. Otherwise the country will never recover from the leftward influence they'll have on our elections.
