I have spent my entire professional life fighting to legalize undocumented immigrants in America, so today’s speech by President Donald Trump should have been a big day.
An unpopular president who has used an unpopular tactic in pursuit of an unpopular border wall finds himself in a jam.

Breakthrough, right?
