Oh, and Scumer didn't really take the wall off the table.
Some Democrats refuse to even to say the word "wall" when it comes to border security. Others, like Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, toy with the idea and even offer compromises to fund the wall in exchange for DACA rights, only to take the offer back when they face heat from progressive activists.
Then there are Democrats like Sen. Joe Manchin (WV), who admit there's no getting around it - we need the wall.
"We do need a wall," he said. "In certain places we need a wall."
"We've got to repair some of the wall that we have and we've got to build some new wall," he added. "We need technology, we need border agents, we need to check our mail.
Schumer "did not" take the wall off the table, despite what media is reporting, Manchin said.
"Chuck will come around."
