Will never work, Bernie is a SJW who wants amnesty for illegals, and Trump is the exact opposite.

That is exactly why it would work. It is the counter balance of one extreme to another. With those two radically opposing viewpoints, the consensus these two diametrically opposed viewpoints is immigration reform as it would allow for asylum or migration for those who need it/ would be a net positive to society while allowing for a screening of bad actors.

Fuck that, Trump doesn't get half his votes if he backs down on immigration, including mine
