We’re seeing a carefully coordinated attack on President Trump using the children of illegal alien parents held in detention as the vehicle. The lies are stunning but typical for Trump-haters.

I agree that this latest attack is a three-pronged effort; (1) to obscure Trump’s latest successes with the economy and the North Korea summit, (2) weaken his support nationally and, (3) to help the left’s push for open borders.

That the president is holding firm is very heartening and frankly, almost inspiring when compared to the instant capitulation we would have seen from the Bush presidency.

Oh, and Ted Cruz is a major disappointment...again.

You’re not really surprised are ya? ;-)

Good points.
I’m surprised to see Glen Beck’s Blaze site posting the positive Trump side of the immigration story.

Their real strategy here is to make a "crisis" out of something that isn't even one of the top 25 issues American voters even care about. Americans may have an opinion one way or another about a specific immigration policy, but the issue of dealing with DACA immigrants (for example) is so far off anyone's radar screen that it's pathetic to see it getting any attention in Washington at all.

These Democrats are trying to push the GOP Congress into passing a sh!tty immigration bill that Trump will sign. That's probably the only way -- short of Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell joining ISIS and launching a jihad in the halls of Congress -- to sever the tenuous ties between Trump's base and the voters who support the GOP establishment.
