Trump's legislative affairs director has given up all leverage by telling the press that the White House is not demanding wall funding for Amnesty for DACA recipients, saying the administration is most interested in getting border security and that Trump believes a barrier is important to that equation of border security.
Whether or not that is part of a DACA equation or whether or not thats another legislative vehicle I dont want us to bind ourselves into a construct that makes reaching a conclusion on DACA impossible, Short said during a breakfast.

Meanwhile, Schumer and Pelosi are cheering the White House surrender. They can already see Trump and the Republicans abandoning the wall and giving into amnesty with no crackdown on illegal aliens or real increased border security.
"That's a very, very good thing and good progress," Schumer said. "I've told him (Trump) over and over again. At one point he said, 'go easy on the wall.' I said no."
"Look, I made it so, so clear to the president that there's not going to be a wall in the appropriations process or in others," Schumer added.
Weve been very clear: There is no wall in our DACA future. Its just not going to happen, Pelosi said in a small roundtable with reporters, recounting her conversations with Trump. I think its immoral, I think its expensive and ineffective. And so were not going to that place.
You pass it, Ill sign it, I want some border stuff. Thats what he said, Pelosi recounted. We always want border stuff, so thats not a problem. Especially with all the technologies.
Like I said, you in a small minority on this issue. The sooner you recognize that, the better deal you will be able make because and unrealistic one is not in the cards.
I recommend that you wait and see how things play out long term. We elected Trump to do his thing, I suggest now we allow him to do it. By running around with your hair on fire every time the msm reports that Trump is betraying his base, you are allowing the msm to manipulate you.
No. Just no.
We elected Trump to build the wall. We did NOT elect Trump to give blanket amnesty to law breakers.
still aint gonna fly.
I guess “the promise shouldn’t be kept” is a more honest excuse for a lying politician who reneges on a major campaign pledge than a lame excuse like “he keeps his promise and he is playing 3d chess”.
Most of the applicants are much older than fifteen. They were not properly vetted either, nor did they have to prove they had been here any length of time. Estimates are 50% fraudulent claims. Under the example you give, I’d agree with you, but that applies to a smaller percentage of dreamers.
He is basically running everything in D.C.
Suit yourself. You can be the bi-polar bitch of the msm if you want. I’m watching the long game.
I’m waiting for someone to explain this 4d chess game to me.
BS.....
In other words, you don’t believe in deporting ILLEGALS......
So am I. So far, I am getting garbage.
Let me take a stab at this 4d chess thing. In 4d chess, down is up, black is white, night is day, losing is winning. In other words, 4d chess is an alternative universe or make-believe opposite universe.
Good posts this thread Joe. Of course the illegal lover idiots will have some sort of bull squat reason why we are the bad guys for thinking as we do.
