The hypocrisy here was all around. Your party acted perfectly Trumpian on this issue and it got jammed up its ass by Trump. Deservedly.
Is this “both sides-ism”? Yeah. You know what else? Irrefutable facts.

I don't understand what you're talking about, or how it responds to what I said. I said the main obstacle to
legislation on immigration is Republican opportunism. That is undeniably true. When was the last significant legislation on immigration? The law has been stuck in stasis for ever.
Without new legislation, both parties try to do immigration policy by changing enforcement of existing law. That's not legislation.
Enough with your both-sidesism. Democrats have been ready to deal on immigration for a long time. Republicans would rather have the issue than do a deal.
