Do Democrats understand that the main reason Trump got elected POTUS was to build the Mexican Border Wall?
Not only the wall but the whole immigration issue is why Trump was elected. I doubt there has ever been such a clear cut divide on any issue between ordinary people and the elites. Uncontrolled immigration, despite all efforts by media and special interests to lobby for it, remains massively unpopular. And no, Democrats still don't seem to understand.

The majority of American voters did not support Trump or his lies about how Mexico was going to pay for the wall.

He lost the popular vote by millions.

Trump supporters don't seem to grasp that they are not the majority.

Republicans in Congress do and that's one reason they haven't supported his wall BS.

No democratic administration has ever favored uncontrolled immigration. This claim that democrats want open borders is one of the biggest and most often-repeated lies with which Trump supporters are obsessed. The only reason Trump got enough votes to swing the Electoral College in the flyover states, is because there's enough dull-witted and gullible people there who believed that lie.

Trump convinced these idiots that Hillary was a criminal. Now we are learning who the criminal really is and these hicks are trying to divert attention away from that fact with this pro-wall nonsense.

Let me ask you this without making any open border's claims. Why do the Democrats want sanctuary cities protected (and no, illegals do not rat on other criminals for the most part). Why do the Democrats only want "convicted" criminal illegal aliens deported? Why do they want another amnesty which would be quadruple the number of 1986? Why do they oppose the wall today when they were all for it a few years ago when it's cost effective and proven to work? I'm sure there are other things I could mention but these are the best indicators that the Democrats are suspect on illegal immigration.

Their Dear Leader would do a MUCH better job if they demanded more of him.
