‘No more DACA deal,’ Trump says as he threatens to ‘stop’ NAFTA if Mexico doesn’t better secure bord

President Trump said Sunday that there would be no deal to legalize the status of millions of “dreamers,” undocumented immigrants brought to the United States as children, and directed congressional Republicans to pass tough new anti-immigration legislation.

Trump also assailed Mexican authorities for being too lax with border security, saying the U.S.-Mexico border was "getting more dangerous." He threatened to "stop" the North American Free Trade Agreement if Mexico does not “stop the big drug and people flows.”

In a fiery series of Sunday morning tweets, sent an hour after he wished Americans a “HAPPY EASTER" and minutes before he attended a church service here, Trump vowed, “NO MORE DACA DEAL.”

Its about time someone IN MEXICO stops the invasion and starts taking care of their own citizens. Pure negligence.
For every illegal caught and returned, fine the Mexican government a couple thousand $$.

You never trusted Donald Trump. As a businessman, a candidate or a President. Don’t bullshit people. You’re the one who looks like a jackass.

There are remedies that Congress can use if they have the will. The President and the Executive Branch as the enforcer of our laws must observe the Rule of Law. The culprit is Congress, which has allowed its authority to be usurped not only by the Judicial Branch, but also the Executive Branch.

Mark Levin wrote a great book about it--Men in Black: How the Supreme Court Is Destroying America. The Constitution provides the remedies.

I am not comparing him to other presidents. I am comparing his performace to the solution to the problem.

Trump's performance has been exemplary. He ended DACA, which was unconstitutional. He also withdrew the federal appeal of the ruling by a Texas Federal judge on Obama's 2014 second executive order amnesty, which was deadlocked by SCOTUS. Obama began the appeal hoping that Hillary would be elected and change the composition of the court. With the death of Scalia, I have no doubt that she would have appointed a liberal to the court and the appeal would have been supported.

When the president abdicate s power and leaves the border open longer and keeps letting in people from terrorist shitholes, that is national defense crises AND a constitutional crisis when he let’s1 judge stop him prom protecting us.

LOL. The border has been open for decades. Clinton was better on immigration than either of the Bushes. If you think that Trump can secure the border in 15 months on the job and no support from Congress on funding the Wall or changing our immigration laws to stop catch and release and the tortured legal process that allows the illegal aliens to stay here for years if not forever while their cases are being adjudited

There are over 900,000 absconders loose in our country, i.e., they have gone thru the entire legal process and ordered deported. Yet they remain here. Blaming Trump for the lack of security on the border is just some more #NeverTrump BS. Our immigration laws are being enforced today to a far greater extent than they have been for over 40 years. But we have CA declaring itself a sanctuary state and thumbing their nose at federal laws. And you have a major party along with RINO sympathizers supporting the illegal aliens and calling for their legalization.

What's next, are you going to blame Trump for the current situation in North Korea?

"It’s why Trump can’t, with any credibility really tell other countries to police their drug flows into this country. Our American abusers have a demand for the drugs, the cartels supply it and along the way have killed many thousands of people in order to secure their networks or have bribed and threatened others to look the other way. Gangs in our country fight maim and kill to control the drug traffic in their “hoods” or even the interstate routes into other territories(a la the high kill rates in Chicago) as do the individual pushers themselves. The addicted themselves may steal, rob and even kill to support their own habits. If those who abuse illegal drugs were truly responsible for their own calamities, that is one thing but their illegal drug habits have had spill over effects so that almost none of us can say we don’t have innocent blood on our hands. Yet, still the primary responsibility is on the American addicts themselves and their primary pushers....their hands are the hands upon which the blood of innocents is truly the stickiest!"

And THAT is exactly why every single red, sticky drop of blood, body and soul needs to be put at the feet of the democratic party..!!

The democrats will be the FIRST to tell you, "Why it's poverty that causes crime".. And yet they sneak, lie, connive, and work day and night using every trick in the book to increase the poverty numbers in our nation so they can KEEP THEMSELVES in their cushy government jobs... They couldn't care LESS about our country, their neighbor or even their own kids whom they murder by the millions....

You write very well...lucent and to the point. Me, not so much.. :) But I say this to you... I don't vote for democrats in anyway, shape or form.. I see them only as commie murders, liars and thieves.. But I do consider myself at least partly responsible for their destruction of our nation.. Simply because I too lack the necessary stones to take up arms against them even KNOWING that it is my constitutional duty to do so...

Sorry for the rant... :)

his implementation of the restrictions from certain countries was delayed months. DACA was ok with him for wall money. You are mistaking what he has done and is still doing.

They have been doing these trains/human caravans for about 7 years now, funded by George $oreA$$ so called non profit.

Obama welcomed them.

Apparently, this year, Mexico has had chartered buses to take them where the trains didn’t run or were too full.
