Chief of Staff Kelly Set Up President Trump for Amnesty Fiasco
Breitbart ^ | September 15, 2017 | Neil Munro

Posted on 09/16/2017 1:31:39 PM PDT by Pinkbell

White House Chief of Staff John Kelly ensured that President Donald Trump was literally surrounded by amnesty boosters the night he agreed to give away a huge, expensive and unpopular amnesty in exchange for an empty bag of “border security” promises.

The September 13 amnesty deal has proved so half-baked and disastrous that Kelly and other top officials have promised to develop a new immigration reform plan within ten days which matches Trump’s 2016 campaign proposals.

The Kelly set-up was exposed by the seating chart, which seated Trump between the two Democratic leaders, Sen. Chuck Schumer and  Rep. Nancy Pelosi. According to the Washington Post:

Act One was the dinner itself, a meal of honey sesame crispy beef, sticky rice and chocolate cream pie for dessert, with Schumer and Pelosi flanking Trump on both sides.

Another person in the room was Trump’s congressional relations chief, Marc Short, who is a former president of a Koch brothers’ pro-immigration group.  On September 12, he suggested the president should trade his campaign promise of a border wall in exchange for tax-breaks sought by CEOs. On a Friday MSNBC show, Short admitted the September 13 seating was deliberate when he answered a question from MSNBC’s Hallie Jackson about Pelosi being ignored by other politicians at the meeting, saying:

I was there, Hallie … The conversation was one that was very friendly and very jovial, and I don’t recall any conversation about women being left out of the conversation. In fact, we seated Nancy Pelosi right next to the president so her opinions could be heard.

Trump was partly supported in the meeting by Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, who asked, “What exactly does the president get out of this deal?” But Ross is also an advocate for using immigration to help companies cut salaries for white-collar professionals.

Bullsh*t.

Care to show us exactly where this so-called “amnesty” is written?

Care to DEFINE exactly what this so-called “amnesty” entails?

Just exactly is meant by “amnesty” these days?

Oh, I know - “amnesty” now exists however the loony psycho bitch, Ann Coulter (and her cadre of TDS followers) decides to define the term during her perpetual menstrual cycle.

More snowflake shock waves propagated from within the Never Trump echo-chamber. You people are pathetic.

To: Pinkbell; All
Every media outlet is reporting this stuff. Roger Stone is Trump’s friend and is reporting this. Cernovich has been proven right multiple times. Steve Bannon’s Breitbart is reporting this.

Here's the thing. Bannon is a confirmed liar too and has his own agenda in making Trump look like a baffled idiot with no firm opinions of his own or control over his own cabinent. Bannon has been trying to convince Conservatadom that without his help for the last 3 months of the campaign, the liberal Trump would have lost to Hillary Clinton.

And I can confirm how Bannon's Breitbart lied all during the nomination process to destroy Trump and help rehabilitate Ted Cruz's immigration record by outright lying about Cruz's immigration record to millions of people. Many FReepers, to this day, still believe the crap Breitbart claimed about him "never supporting H1B or greencard increases!", or the even larger lie about his real stance on legalization of illegals.

So you're throwing more names at me and all you're doing is giving me more examples to throw at you.

The best conclusion here is that there isn't really a "Conservative" media outside of a handful of people. Bannon and Breitbart's people are not in that list.

As for the media, they have been telling us from day one that Trump has no real positions on anything and that he is not in control of his campaign, and now he is not in control of his administration.

These people are liars and their "sources" are simply too stupid to believe.

There no sources quoted in this article other than Axios and the Compost (Fake news).

Cernovich, Roger Stone and thier ilk are self promoters. Thier sources aren’t reliable, because they don’t exist.

If he lets them stay, he's finished.

Even with a wall, if he lets them stay, he's finished.

If he lets them stay and no wall. His supporters will actively work to boot him out of office too.

Letting them stay ensures war. So, they are leaving one way or another. It's just a question of when and how many of us get taken out in the process.

Don’t believe the #fakenews crap. Trump is way smarter than this #fakenews implies, and we should be too.

“Miller knows the politics, polling, and economics of the issue, having worked as Senator Jeff Sessions’ right-hand man during the successful campaign to stop the 2013 cheap-labor-and-amnesty “Gang of Eight” bill.”


So why can’t Miller get in to see Sessions, and have Sessions talk with Trump after normal business hours? Trump never stops working, and I am sure that Sessions can contact him without interference from Kelly and the other Deep Staters.

This so-called story is ridiculous. They want you to believe Trump has no control over where he sits at events and that if he just happens to be surrounded by democrats at a meal he is so stupid he gives away the farm.

Fake news.

Javanka is sinking any chance President Trump had for a second term. He’ll be lucky to finish the first.

“They want you to believe Trump has no control over where he sits at events and that if he just happens to be surrounded by democrats at a meal he is so stupid he gives away the farm.”

Then the seating arrangements and topics of discussion was the President’s idea?

If that should be the case Trump will be gone, but she’ll be left standing; Ivanka is New World Order and has other things in mind anyway.

Guess she doesn’t see the need to defend or help her own father who, by the way, is the reason she is able to globe-trot in the first place.
