Leave it to Dems to cave to give up any leverage they have. They're now saying they will agree to build the wall as high as Trump wants it just to keep DACA going.
I don't want the stupid wall. Caving into Trump and Republicans is just stupid politics.

We don't have the power to get everything we want, unfortunately. No need in fooling ourselves to try to make us feel better about living in trumpster world.
If it takes a wall, give it to him and then set the graffiti artists loose to put the orange buffoon on every inch of what actually gets built.
