Fox runs stories about illegals committing heinous crimes (something they do a slower pace than the average American citizen) and MSNBC says Corey Lewandowski was making fun of a child with downs syndrome (he was being an asshole, but he wasn't making fun of the child).
So, until I see numbers that compel me that the problem is costly enough to justify the incredibly costly solutions being offered, I maintain that these are just political gamesmanship by two parties that want power more than they want anything else.
When they start damaging children in their quest for power (which both sides do), I'm done and I'll call them out at every opportunity. The right was very effective in calling out Obama and Clinton (and to a lesser extent, GWB). What I've seen since DT rose to power is that the right has just as many hypocrites as the left and POWER is prize...they'll take it however they can get it.
