It’s unclear whether Trump will go along, but this makes it more likely that he’ll fold, at least for now. In an interview with Bloomberg, GOP pollster David Winston offered the rosy view of GOP immigration messaging. Opposition to the wall equals prioritizing immigrants and celebrating browning America over the rule of law.

In reality, support for the investigations revealing the true depths of Trump’s corruption and lawlessness, and resistance to his cruel and arbitrary immigration policies, will constitute the true rule of law positions.
