He could explain that the border security problem is now so acute that it is his duty to do whatever is within his power to cause the public to make the Congress serve them.
Border Security Shut-down

(I moved this post from another thread, because it didn't really fit the thread topic.)
Trump could win this deal, if he would let someone help him that is
articulate enough to convince the public on border issues, without
having to hype everything with repetitious, bullying rhetoric that is
peppered with inaccuracies.
The facts are
convincing enough, without the slick sales technique. He just needs to
understand the material, so he doesn't just read it with his phony voice
inflections that make it look like he is bored, or is being forced to
take medicine. He is right on the issue - he just doesn't know how to
put it all together, without acting like a bully, or a NYC car salesman.
An
oval office speech on all of the networks, delivered with something
approaching Ronald Reagan style sincerity, would reach a public that is
starved for some adult behavior from the people who are supposed to be
serving them.
He could blame Congress for
not punishing the employers who hire illegals, because both parties are
guilty of not acknowledging that fact, much less debating it. He could
do it in such a way that asking for border security money is actually a
compromise, because Congress refuses to debate the root cause.
He
could highlight the hypocrisy of sending billions of tax dollars to a
thousand different places that most citizens do not approve of, and
don't leave out the billions sent to Iran, in bales of cash, that is now
funding world-wide terrorism

Another example i know first hand. Recently separated Vet. Gave up her apartment to attend a 7 month Federal Agent academy. Was sent home and told pay and training are suspended until the furlough is over, you must leave the property. Where does she go? No pay, no place to live, how many days can you afford in a hotel?
Everyone effected is not on welfare, those checks will go out.

As far as I am personally concerned you are preaching to the choir. Eliminating available jobs for illegals as a solution is so obvious that a 5th grader could figure it out!!! When I was performing my Military Intelligence Aerial Surveillance training the Southern border "wall" in Arizona was a 10 foot tall chain link fence. Illegal immigration was not considered a problem in 1978. From 1980 to 1983 I performed many aerial surveillance missions on both Northern and Southern borders. The mission was counterdrug not immigration. We were fighting Reagan's war on drugs. The technology was current and effective at detecting and locating the targets accomplishing the mission quite well. Todays technology is far more advanced but still worthless lacking vehicles and boots on the ground for the apprehension phase.
