Trump has been about 1 thing for the majority of his time in the Presidential Spotlight: stopping illegal immigration. That's all I'm saying. I get that you don't want to give the man credit for tying his tie correctly, but he did in fact raise something that had been simmering below the surface to miles above it.

Sure. He certainly drove up the salience of the issue. But only for Republicans/conservatives. It was Abbott who got Democrats to care about immigration restrictions.

Trump was showier, but Abbott actually accomplished something that few politicians are ever able to do - force the other party to change their position on something to approach what they want. It's really an incredible political feat. Truly amazing. He's gotten very little recognition for it, as far as I can tell.
