Last week, Democratic Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia offered President Trump some advice on how to end the current border wall standoff. "Always try to find a solution in which both sides come out ahead," Warner told the president. It's good advice. Trump is taking it. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., are not.

On Saturday, Trump did exactly what Warner suggested, offering Democrats a win-win compromise. In addition to his 230-mile physical barrier, Trump said he would support three years of legislative relief for 700,000 recipients of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, as well as a three-year extension for 300,000 other immigrants whose temporary protected status is expiring -- 1 million people in all. These extensions, Trump said, would give Congress time to "work on a larger immigration deal, which everybody wants -- Republicans and Democrats." His offer, Trump said, was "straightforward, fair, reasonable and common sense, with lots of compromise," adding that "both sides in Washington must simply come together … and find solutions."
