She is not going to gain any votes from building a wall, literally anyone who wants a wall is going to vote for Trump.
Tailism is bad, mkay?
Its not only trump sycophants that think a wall will stop immigration. There are plenty of undecided voters with little to no understanding of immigration and the policy associated with it. Granted, a wall is a simple minded/uninformed persons idea of a solution to illegal immigration, but that's kinda the core populous of undecided voters isn't it. If you want the perfect socialist candidate to reform US politics I'm afraid you're gonna be waiting a long time, dont let perfect be the enemy of good. We have yo start somewhere and the immigration bill has a fair amount of real and effective reforms in it.
And that somewhere is state level electoral reform, replacing First Past The Post voting with a more representative electoral system.
One that gives voters the freedom to vote for who best represents them, secure in the knowledge their vote will still be counted if their preference didn't win.
Democrats say they support democracy, yet the vast majority of blue states still uses FPTP voting. Curious...
Yes 100%
