AL: Serious attempts are assayed almost every Congress.

I see I'm going to need a better descriptor than 'serious". Maybe serious that had a decent chance? 2013?

While there is a large majority that would like to change the status quo

Well there's a bright spot. I'll take it.

the de facto aspects of the current situation actually may achieve a better and more lasting balance between the policy preferences of those various factions than any legal de jure system could.

My past idea that we could build processing in Mexico and keep everything over there probably won't work if we hire a bunch of judges to speed up the hearings/trials of the asylees. They'll want to be stateside. But you're right, that's our best option. I don't see how we can hire that many without Congress agreeing to it in a law. And fat chance we'll get a law.

So our local rw will vote for the Green Lantern powers of Trump, and he will fail loudly, blaming Dems, rinse - repeat. Now they're against alliances too.
