Have them build the wall in exchange for citizenship.

I have a better deal. How about they pack their **** and go back to their home country.

But here's the problem with that. You send 10 million back to Mexico and it becomes a failed state. Do we really want Somalia on our southern border? We send bad the bad actors, and give work permits to the ones we want to keep because they bring useful skills. Nobody gets a path to citizenship without speaking English and either 1) coming here legally or 2) serving honorably in the military.

I wouldn't have a problem with that. Most of these dreamers already know English anyway.

I have no problem giving them a path to citizenship outside of the normal immigration procedures as long as they have not committed a crime more than a misdemeanor.
