Ironically, Orange actually criticized him as being too strident. I kid you not.

The gang of eight bill brought up during both W and Barry seemed to be a reasonable solution. Increased security and the pathway. But again the courage was lacking in the middle.

The wall and deporting millions of people who have been here for a long time and productive is nuts. In that regard, you are right, it is crazy versus non crazy. However, the left is not without its own craziness; abolish ICE, sanctuary cities who don’t cooperate with the feds, that type of thing. I can give you one example. It use to be that PD’s and local detainment facilities could hold people for ICE on detainers. However, the immigrant rights groups then convinced at least our circuit that these detainers aren’t mandatory hold orders. Sooo, if the only thing you had on one of these guys is an ICE detainer there was no basis for the locals to hold. As soon as that came out, as solicitor for our county prison, I had to tell them to release three detainees, one of whom we recently found out went on to commit some more violent crimes. Under the old rules, he would have been deported. This is the kind of crazy shit that Orange capitalizes on. Why the left doesn’t see this as a problem, I don’t know.
