(CNN)Two dumb things happened in the last several days: The Trump administration separated children from their parents as they, many of them illegally, crossed the border into the United States, and the American left assumed that the subsequent outcry over this decision would fundamentally alter the political landscape.

This flap over family detention has again laid bare a debate that worked in Trump's favor in 2016 and could still help him and the Republican Party win in 2018 and 2020: One party prefers tighter immigration restrictions and one party leans toward relaxed enforcement. Trump himself made that case in a speech in Las Vegas over the weekend, when he cited in fiery terms Democrats' desire for "open borders" on a campaign swing designed to boost the fortunes of incumbent Republican Dean Heller.

No, no, no!
Let them keep pushing in the direction that they're pushin' now.

The harder they push, the louder they scream, the more bizarre they become -- this can only result in more "defections" of Euro-Americans from their side.

Give them megaphones and bullhorns!

Its CNN sounding the alarm.

No worries, though. The democrat party is currently being steered by the far left and the far left is impervious to reason.

Some AM talk jock said CNN's audience is currently smaller than the food channel last week.

Per Nielsen ratings, yeah.
