It won't.
If it keeps the 90% of heroin that comes in from the southern border then sure.
Lindsey Graham's "super DACA" (S.1615 - Dream Act of 2017 and its House twin H.R.3440) bill was never going to pass and contained no Great Wall Of Trump funding - it was cobbled together simply as a negotaiting tool.
I don't have one little bit of sympathy for lefties trying to gripe about the cost. The left have never cared about spending 77 billion dollars so I'm tired of hearing the violins playing. The left are totally fine with spending 77 billion on anything they want to spend 77 billion on so it has absolutely nothing to do with the cost. Actually, I see the wall paying for itself. Anyone who makes it into our country costs us food, housing, processing costs, free healthcare, etc. We need to stop people from getting here in the first place so we don't have to apprehend them. That saves billions and billions of dollars.
Yes, they dang sure did, and now its like everyone forgot about that on both sides.
He only has one choice.
Chuck and Nancy won't make a deal...not even for DACA.
No. He's just the only one determined to fix it.
Lies, he just rejected a choice headed by his own party in the Senate to re-open government and begin debate in the Senate on immigration solutions.

They are a total waste of time. Trump just needs to open the government back up, blame it on the Dems, and say he is bigger than the Dems. Then he needs to declare a national emergency and build the wall - screw the left who have no interest in border security at all. I just read today that both California and New York City want to bring on single payer healthcare and specifically include illegals. And they want us to believe they are interested in border security.

Actually thats a hellava an idea.
Re open not to concede but on principle.
Then declare the emergency.... lets face it its "becoming" a crisis. But not in the way we want it to be.
2 children died due to medical deficiencies.
2 Adults killed by illegals
thats 4 deaths in a matter of a month ALL due to the actions of an Illegal NOT by Trump or a wall.
if the Illegals did NOT commit an illegal act all 4 would likely still be alive? Fact check that? If the 2 children did NOT make the border trek would they or would the not be alive right now?
If the 2 illegals 1 that murder an LEO and the other a DRUNK DRIVER did not get INTO the US would these 2 victims likely be alive.
This is whats in the damn news what is NOT being covered is whats worse........Yes it is becoming a crisis, creating discord in our government, our people and a humanitarian issue at our borders.
Drugs cost the US $155 Billion a year.
We MAKE money with a wall.
Lotsa drugs being backpacked across the Rio Grande, you figger? Billions and billions of bucks worth?
Only cause California was so lopsided. But so what he won on the rule of the game. And now he is not supposed to do what he campaigned to do?
From Trump's point of view, he was willing to negotiate. They weren't.
"I asked what is going to happen in 30 days if I quickly open things up, are you going to approve Border Security which includes a Wall or Steel Barrier? Nancy said, NO. I said bye-bye, nothing else works!” - Trump
The vast majority of illegal drunks arrive via ports of entry.
Wall won't stop that.
Well, Trump's point of view is usually twisted and not based on reality.
"My way or the high way" is what Trump is doing. That is not negotiating.
Besides, he's pegging the wall to the shutdown.
Dems are not going to negotiate with a hostage taker. If they did, he would just do it again every time he whines and doesn't get his way. There is NO WAY they will give in, for that reason.
Maybe not specifically -- but the 25 billion funding for security was part of a wall payment, no?
If you invite someone to your office to make a business deal...and they flat out say no...the meeting is over.
