The Washington Post Editorial is rather vexed at Trump’s position on illegal immigration, and, much like Jorge Ramos, lets the cat out of the bag Trump could’ve embraced an immigration deal.

The Washington Post Editorial Board is no fan of a border wall. Though I’d bet that the majority of that august body have fences/walls around their mansions. However, they’ve seen the writing on the wall, pun intended, that they won’t get a “clean” DACA bill (hey, here’s a recommendation: a clean DACA bill that allows […]
