“”we are going to work something out” for DREAMers.

Work = implement all existing laws

Something = dreamers, illegals, visa overstays, green card voters, multiple voters, using diseased persons data, fake SS number voters, motor voters....etc

Out = Deported.

Yes. You don’t get to rob the bank and keep the money.

False narrative. Trump was never against immigrants. He is, and should be, against ILLEGAL immigrants. Big difference.

Roger Stone who speaks to Trump regularly says he’s playing these Senators. Trump is going to beat pansy Graham like a drum in the next four years.

“media attempting to drive a narrative again.”

Exactly. Maybe even fake news.

I agree with your basic view. But I have been thinking about the massive task of rounding up and deporting the millions of illegals who are convicted criminals, gang members, welfare and tax cheats, and otherwise especially troublesome. To get rid of just 365,000 of them would require apprehending them, bringing them before an immigration court, transporting them to somewhere outside the US where they can’t come right back — all at a rate of 1,000 per day every day of the year. It would take 4 years at this unrealistic pace just to deport the worst of the illegals. The hard core will not leave willingly, and it will be increasingly harder to keep up the required numbers.

In practical terms, the young ones on a school or work track do less harm, and deporting them generates sob stories for the propagandists. Smarter to focus efforts on the nastier, unsympathetic, criminal element at first.

Trump should strike a bargain with these Senatorial hand-wringers. So long as they give full-scale legislative support and funding for his efforts against criminals, gang members, etc., to secure the borders, and stop the intake of Muslim “refugees”, he will not go after their little dreamers.

I tend to side with your way of thinking.

Cut them off from jobs and benefits and they will leave on their own.
E-verify every job.
No valid SS#, no job.
No benefits without proof of citizenship.
No choice but to leave.
Let them know under the law if we have to deport them, it is a 10 year ban before they can apply for entry the right way, the way EVERY REAL immigrant has done it.

We need to use the correct language.
The media loves to confuse things with incorrect language.
Illegal aliens are NOT immigrants.
Immigrants are people who applied in their home countries to be Americans, paid their fees, waited their turn, learned the language and complied with the laws.
Illegal aliens are people who broke in or overstayed visas.

so what’s the big deal? many 1000’s of people are arrested every day in this country- they go through the courts- and eventually face their due-

illegal immigrants are costing this country between $400 BILLION and $600 BILLION dollars every single year- the cost of rounding them up and deporting them won’t be anywhere near that, and once they are gone, they are no longer a financial burden on this country- Nearly 3/4’s of immigrants are on some form of government welfare/’relief’- many to the tune of nearly $45,000 dollars a year as they soak our government and citizens for every last cent they can get-

This is a huge huge problem that is draining our finances- some organizations even estimate it may be even more than $600 BILLION a year when everything is factored in-

These ‘dreamers’ sure do dream- they dream about crossing the boarder and drinking beer all day as they collect welfare money by having many kids here- and collecting free health care and free college and and and- that’s a hell of a dream- money for nothin- chicks for free-

Not all immigrants are illegal, NBC. Have you ever heard of legal immigrants?

I guess not.

My line in the sand. Has been for many years. I want them gone. They’ve made my state unlivable. No quarter on this one for me.

the ‘unaccompanied minor’ program was a ploy to flood the country with new democrat voters

they should NOT be allowed citizenship just because they broke into the country without their parents

You’re quite funny. You really think Trump will kick the dreamers out? It will never happen. Scoff if you will, but lets have this discussion 2 years from now. They will stay.

E Verify= No work. Employers go to jail if caught.

No welfare.

End birthright citizenship. It was never the intent of the 14th Amend.

They will go home.

Assuming for the sake of argument that you DID want to allow illegals to continue to live in the US, why would you pick the ones too stupid to know the meaning of “deferred”?

Yea that’s a good plan, because we all know from the history of sending conservatives pols to DC, that once they start capitulating and being nice to the left, and selling out the voters, the left stops trying to cut their throats politically and backs up off of them.
