But how? I have never heard a practical suggestion but when it comes to funding, total silence. So simply kicking the can down the road forever.
So here comes Trump, wants to deport all illegals (not really but we know the ones

) and build a wall. A totally impractical suggestion both politically and monetarily and now everyone is talking about it.
So the genie is out of the bottle for good or bad. And this is just one hot button topic we have been avoiding for a long time.
Still no real solutions but there is talk. When the general election rolls around, hope the electorate wakes up and realizes that the cure is more dangerous than the disease.
