We currently have just 5 Senators on the side of the citizens and the rule of law.
Cotton, Grassley, Cruz, Paul and Perdue.
We must remove the Amnesty Senators and replace them with Senators who will side with US.

McConnell and Ryan were always sloppy and soft on immigration.

Nothing good with come out of this Congress.
We have just 5 Senators on the side of the citizens and the rule of law and maybe 50 House members.
We MUST remove the Bush League Republicans and replace them with patriots.

Senator Durbin blew up a process that looked like it had a chance of producing a suitable political outcome for his side. Most likely all this indicates is Durbin is as dumb as we suspect but usually even these dumb political types are very cagey savvy around these things.

President Trump gave Durbin a hand grenade and told him he could throw it at the Republicans. Instead, Durbin just pulled the pin out and sat on it. LOL.

This isn't a McConnell and Ryan problem -- it's a problem with individual members of Congress who are supported heavily by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

Give Ryan some credit here. While all this idiocy was going on with President Trump and the U.S. Senators in his office, the House actually passed an immigration reform bill that has about 95% of what Trump wants.

One of the best articles I have ever read on Free Republic.
As good as anything Mark Steyn ever wrote. He nails it.

After the crap, they just pulled on DACA? No chance. They’re playing with the standard make the GOP President do what they want playbook: Call him a racist until he concedes. Trump doesn’t concede.

If he goes soft he needn’t think that the left will like him better. They will simply see weakness and go for the jugular all the more.
