    New Harvard Poll Shows Americans Want Legal Immigration Cut 60%

    A Harvard-Harris poll taken in the run-up to the shutdown found Americans strongly support granting citizenship rights to illegal immigrant Dreamers. But they also back Mr. Trump’s three demands for a border wall, limits to the chain of family migration and an end to the Diversity Visa Lottery.

    Most striking of all is the public’s demand for lower overall legal immigration — a position that has little traction on Capitol Hill but one that is overwhelmingly popular across the country.
    The poll found that most Americans want annual legal immigration capped at 500,000 a year or less
    — far lower than the current annual rate of 1.3 million.

    I'm thinking some of the Dem internal polling was showing this, too, and that's why Schumer shucked.
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

      I suspect you are correct, this poll actually surprised me.

        Another factor seems to be that their unofficial propaganda arm, the MSM, inexplicably didn't really play along this time. For whatever reason they seemed to be a tad bit reluctant to carry their water as they had done every other shut down. Sure they dutifully blamed the Republicans but in at least some cases suggested that the Democrats might be culpable as well.

        I'm always still in trouble again

          Not to sound like broken record, but Trump wins again!

          Also Civil War: DNC is going nicely, DREAMers attacking Schumer, so looks like Trump will keep winning.
