But a maj didn't support a shut down over deporting the DACA folks.
CNN poll: DACA not worth a shutdown, except to Democrats - CNNPolitics
Will the dems fall for it? For all voters the econ is a more important issue, and HC is as important as immigration, and the dems own that issue after Trumpcare's implosion ... and on immigration, there's no consensus on what should be done. Only the gop wants a wall.

Where's the dickweeds-D counter offer? If Trump's DACA and TPS extensions aren't acceptable, isn't it expected for the other side to come back with something that would be acceptable in exchange for what Donny wants?
Why should the dems make a counter offer at all on immigration until Trump opens up the govt? The answer is that Trump knows a wall ain't gonna be part of it. So, Trump's holding the govt hostage over a wall.
the dems have offered more funding for deporation and border security - not a wall. But Trump's even broken his word to McConnell, who is no longer even negotiating with Trump.
To be very honest, I don't give a shit about the wall or funding it. I don't really give a shit about border security, since on avg more people aren't entering the country that way than are leaving. And I certainly don't give a shit whether the DACA folks stay. It's horrible that Trump jailed and has now lost another 15K children, but why were they even brought here?
Immigration is really about who is working here and not a citizen, and do we want them. And how can we deport people who over stayed their visas. But Trump doesn't care about that. Trump's not serious. He wants make believe Wall to statisfy his base. That's all this shut down is about. The dems job is to call him on it.
