If they were deported, how many would go though the Merit Process to come back? Those are the only ones I would want back.

I have a compromise: any DACA who is productively employed goes to the bottom of the list for deportation. Any DACA with any criminal record, goes.

"Kids."

Some of these "kids" are in their 40s.

And everyone of these people, whatever their age - has a country!

They should go back to it.

Send the American Educated Dreamers home to improve their native countries. They never applied for Citizenship nor intended to.

My paternal grandparents were legal immigrants who came from Italy, embraced America and became naturalized Citizens; not Illegal Aliens who Illegally crossed our borders, and the MSM/Dems new use of the word Migrant is false and misleading these people are Illegal Invaders not interested in becoming part of America and our society, not migrants or Immigrants. They want to maintain their country’s socialist, communistic culture.

But most DACA kids have grown up to become good, law-abiding Americans

Where's the data?

A complete and total immigration policy MUST be enacted. This piece by piece crap has continued far too long.

Michael Reagan is a moron.

I agree. Sounds like he's a big fan of MS-13.

I reject the premise that sending people back to their home countries is unjust, immoral or constitutes punishment.

Dear President Trump, keep your promise. Send them home.

President Trump is all about keeping his promises. He is the one with all the leverage. The dems painted themselves into a corner with 20% of their vote. Tick-Tock the deportation clock is ticking.

After name calling; the number one tactic of the dems is to try to drive a wedge between the Republican and their base. Don’t be fooled by any fake news or fake allegations. Or fake stories about how President Trump is going soft or buckling under. Those are classic wedge tactics. Stay strong and really piss off the dems and their media bullies.

President Trump has already said he’ll be willing to take the political hit to get an immigration reform deal done. Let him.

He doesn’t care anyway. He can say or do just about anything.

The worst that can happen to him is that in 2020 he has to go back to being a billionaire.

...

Just when I thought MR was sane again, he comes out with this snark.

>>> Everyone except a few people on the far fringe knows it’d be wrong to deport these 800,000 so-called “Dreamers”. <<<

Guess I’m “on the far fringe”. 800,000 is roughly the population on North Dakota, then add chain migration (7X) from these anchors and it’s amnesty for 5,600,000 which is the population of Colorado. Call me deplorable, but they are all deportable. Immediately, and with their illegal parents.

“Everyone knows something has to be done for America’s DACA kids. Everyone with a good heart or a working brain knows it’s not their fault their parents sneaked them into the country when they were kids under 16.”

Let us expand that reasoning:

Everyone knows something has to be done for the kids of America’s bank robbers. Everyone with a good heart or a working brain knows it’s not their fault their parents were robbing banks when they were kids under 16. Let them keep the money.

They’ve even served in our military.

That’s a lie.
It is illegal for illegal aliens to enlist.

I'm generally willing to extend the DACA waivers to Dreamers, but only to Dreamers living the dream.

We are told by Democrats that Dreamers are educated people who have attended American schools, are hard working and who are model citizens who are big win for our country.

OK

Normalize the status of the 800,000 or so DACA enrollees that qualify

Highly educated - at least a high school diploma from US School.

Can speak English and can pass basic skills evaluation (a real test, not some multiple choice test that everyone has a cheat sheet. This will be expensive so they can pay for the evaluation testing) .

Must attend Americanization and assimilation classes just like legal immigrants do

Can pass a background check to screen for undesirable alien activities, criminality and gang connections

Is and has been been gainfully employed

Is not and has not been receiving government welfare

Not eligible for the IRS earned income credits and other IRS welfare handouts.

No subsidized medical.

This pea brain probably has never even met a DACA let alone have one live next door.
