GOP Sen. Lamar Alexander on Amnesty: ‘I Would Vote for it Again’
Breitbart.com ^ | 11/21/17 | Neil Munro

Posted on 11/22/2017 3:15:29 AM PST by cotton1706

GOP Sen. Lamar Alexander told CNBC that he will vote again for an amnesty, even though his vote for the Democratic-led 2013 amnesty bill helped demolish his establishment GOP peers during the 2016 primaries and election.

“We need a legal immigration system, and we need to put that behind us,” he told CNBC’s John Harwood. “We tried to do it in 2013; I voted for it. It would’ve solved many of the problems … I would vote for it again.”

“Session should shut up about the credibility of Roy Moore’s accusers.”

He said that under oath, as he, (he thinks), parsed every word expertly and carefully. I was astonished when he said that. He came across like a snake.

” Lamar Alexander told CNBC that he will vote again for an amnesty”

It’s time for this FOOL to be sent home and take “cooker” with him. TN needs two reps. that work for TN not for the Democrats.

Hey, Lamar! We HAVE an immigration system, and it would work if you idiots would simply apply it and enforce it.

We MUST remove the Amnesty Senators.
They are telling us they will vote for amnesty again if not removed from office. Graham has made similar statements.

There has been a 30 year bipartisan plan to steal the country from the citizens by importing foreigners.
They are trying to make sure we are not allowed to elect anyone else who sides with the citizens and the rule of law again.
We stunned them throwing out their Majority Leader, Eric Cantor.
Trump had the wealth and fame to punch through the Bush blockade at the RNC.
They will make sure that “mistake” does not happen again.

It’s all about cementing the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA) in place.
They desperately do not want US to be able to restore the rule of law and reverse the demographic changes they have instituted through non-enforcement of laws and borders.
They invited 30 million people here to change the country against the will of the citizens and they do not want US sending them home.
They will do whatever it takes to keep US from electing anyone who sides with the citizens and the rule of law.

What they really don’t want is for US to keep our country.

The final amnesty that would cement the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA) into place has been sought repeatedly since 2006. They sold us Rubio to get the last one in 2013.
We have been prevented from electing anyone who would side with US and the rule of law by their control of the RNC and state parties.

The most important thing to the Uniparty is protecting the demographic changes they have made to the country against the will of the citizens.
That’s what drives the NeverTrump, the media and the Democrats hatred of Trump, it is an extension of their hatred of US.

I have two brothers that live in Tennessee and they hate him and Corkhole the way God hates sin. One has vowed to vote democrat before ever voting for either of these leftist again.

One called Lamar’s office after he voted against repealing obamacare and asked them, I thought Lamar said he would vote immediately to repeal obamacare? The staffer said he will when that option is given to him. My brother said, really what was the reason he voted to retain obamacare yesterday and the staffer repeated the same line.

My brother told the staffer, you can shovel that BS all you want but I am done with him and Corker, they have lost my vote forever. But the senator he cried! My brother said save your breath I’m done with this liar and hung up on him.
