The right reminds Democrats that ‘deferred’ doesn’t mean it lasts forever
A judge in California has ordered the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program to remain in place while legal challenges to President Donald Trump's decision to end the program are litigated. The right says it's time for anyone who came into the country illegally to leave. A roundup of editorials Wednesday takes a look at the issue.
Opinions from the right:
1. Time's Up for 'Temporary' Alien Protection
From columnist Michelle Malkin: You've been in this country illegally, it is time for you to leave. There should be no such thing as perpetual amnesty.
As I made very clear today, our country needs the security of the Wall on the Southern Border, which must be part of any DACA approval.

2. Building the wall would be so worth it
From The Washington Post: Give Trump the wall, because, in the end, it does not balance out the deportation of hundreds of thousands of "Dreamers."

3. Democrats want open borders, not immigration reform
From Newsmax: Reforming immigration policies is not part of the Democratic playbook.
