If the paragraph is an accurate representation of what he wants it is total betrayal and surrender. I am more than a little nervous.

Thanks for pointing that out. I would not have noticed.

How childish.

Wrong.

Three million illegals were given US citizenship under Reagan's amnesty. Furthermore, the punitive terms of the amnesty and preconditional border enforcement regimen was NEVER ENFORCED.

Worst of all, that amnesty encouraged the illegals we got since 1983 that another amnesty would just be a matter of time. Knowing what we know now, if Trump agrees to this he's finished, and so is America.

“Trump is was and has been a liberal. “

And just like that fake news cabal gets the #nevertrump fools out of their hole.

1. only illegal immigrants with zero criminal offenses
2. NO pathway to citizenship as punishment for their illegal entry. hence they will never vote. Dems will have a fit.
3. A fine for illegal entry in return for resident alien status. Use the money to pay for the wall.

Guys I hate to say it, but better settle this issue under Trump than at a time the DEMS take over again. it will happen. Obama focused on Obamacare and screwed over the illegals. If he handnt lost Congress, ALL would have gotten amnesty.

Saying he's "open" means that he's willing to listen to anyone.

It means nothing regarding what he's actually going to decide at this point.

President Trump is always open to talking with people.

Then why do anything that is the status quo now? Trump is finished if he does what I think he is going to do. I hope I am wrong.

And that is the point. It was never enforced and more flooded in and 30 years later we are still fighting it with 11 million more.

I am calling BS on anyone who claims otherwise. It is a joke for the above reason.

If so, AD 2020 will have irreversibly slipped from his hands.

Obviously we will have to wait to see if this is fake news.

What needs to be done immediately is a bill that clarifies the 14th Amend. It was never intended to provide birthright citizenship to illegals or non citizen's children.

“...undocumented immigrants who have not committed serious crimes”

Isn't being in the country illegally a “serious crime”... a felony?
