Why is it acceptable for Senators to belong to a group named after the Chicoms?

A President who represents the American people. Unlike Congress or the courts.

Wishful thinking on Manchin’s part.
Sure the President will look at it, just before he tosses it in the round file.

There is already a freaking “path to citizenship”. It is called applying to come here legally. Why is that so damn hard to understand?

Reports emerged Thursday that Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) told journalists on Capitol Hill that Trump told a bipartisan gathering of lawmakers he is receptive to the so-called Gang of Eight bill. He is open to reviewing the piece of legislation. He says, Well, youve got to start working on it again. And I says, Absolutely, we will, Manchin said of Trump, according to NBC News. More Fake News echoed by Dana Perino on The Five just a mere few minutes ago. They never stop the propaganca!

The Gang of Eight bill is weak nonsense. Why do we want to make citizens out of lawbreakers (criminals). Every single person who comes to this country illegally has broken the law and is a criminal, plain and simple. The government should be punishing them and sending them back to wherever they came from. Millions of people around the world are stuck in long, depressing waits trying to come to the US legally so why should the people who illegally jumped the queue get preferential treatment?

Shortly after Mao’s purge of the infamous Gang of Four, some group of four senators worked together on some issue and got nicknamed the ‘gang of four.’ Since that time, any group of senators that go outside party hierarchy to attempt to agree on a bill themselves is called a “gang of” however many there are, in this case, eight. It’s a bit like attaching the suffix “gate” to any political scandal.

I suspect that Trump and most of the Republicans in Congress FULLY UNDERSTAND that if we wanted Amnesty, we had well over a dozen candidates, starting with Jeb, ready to give us Amnesty.
Funny how we REJECTED them all...

The term "broken immigration" twists my shorts. It's code for AMNESTY.
Amnesty advocates like McCain, are advocating illegal activity and should be arrested. They condone these people (MS13 gang members) living here:
