3. Yeah, it will be interesting to see if Republican weasels try to distance themselves from him

I actually think the protests and trump over reaching is not going to work out in republican favor. Forget Newsmax and Faux news viewers.
Forget the people that held up mass deportations signs. For others, this is not a good look. Furthermore, as more stories are shared online, it exposes their lies about " dangerous criminals". Raiding workplaces, staking out schools, graduations, maternity wards - chasing someone in a field working on a farm?? Was he a danger to the vegetables and farm animals?
Maybe, I am being too optimistic, but perhaps their over reach will wake people up and push for real immigration reform. People here working, paying taxes, contributing to their communities belong here.
