HUH? You just answered my post where I included what you forgot the first time AND NOW AGAIN the 2nd time. Why are you not reporting these FACTS from the same article?

At the same time, support for a border wall has increased since the last time border security issues forced the parties into a standoff in January 2018.

Forty-two percent now support a wall, the highest percentage in ABC/Post polling since Trump first proposed it. Fifty-four percent are opposed.

As noted, while more still oppose rather than back a wall, support has increased to 42 percent, up from 34 percent a year ago and a previous high of 37 percent in 2017. Opposition, 54 percent, is down from 63 percent a year ago and a previous low of 60 percent two years ago.

“Strong” opposition also has declined, from 52 percent last January to 38 percent now. That still outpaces strong support, 29 percent.

HYPOCRITES



Watch One of the Best Sales Pitches Ever for Building a Border Security Wall — It Came From Democrat Senator Dianne Feinstein 25 Years Ago [When the Problem was Much Smaller]



Hypocrisy seems to be the main Democratic platform these days. On issues like immigration and border security, it would be one thing if the left had a consistent message. They still might be wrong, but at least you could give them credit for steadfastly believing in their principles.

Instead, the opposite is true. Far from having a consistent stance on immigration, the very same Democrats who are now cheering for open borders and pretending that illegal immigration isn’t a crisis had a very, very different message not so long ago.


Here’s a perfect example. In a video that goes back to 1994, none other than Dianne Feinstein — yes, the Democratic senator who is now implying that enforcing the border is racist — spoke out about the issue, and sounded downright Trump-like.

Hello @SenFeinstein you are absolutely correct, having illegal immigrants come here and commit felonies is NOT what this Nation is about, you must be outraged that @GavinNewsom now has California paying for 100% of their healthcare. Fix it. Support @realDonaldTrump #BuildTheWall pic.twitter.com/RMVUhAPxv4
