"You cannot get welfare for five years when you come into our country. You can't just come in, like in past weeks, years and decades--you come in, immediately start picking up welfare," Trump said in his weekly web and radio address to the nation....

It’s sad that this is even remotely controversial. The sticking point should be that it doesn’t go nearly far enough.

I’m fine with that rule. Other countries subject Americans to far more strict conditions. I can already hear Lindsay Graham harrumphing in disagreement.

Non citizen immigrants should never be allowed to recieve welfare. For that matter, why give anyone welfare? It is simply stealing from those who work and earn their sustenance to those that do not. II Thess. 3:10: For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: "The one who is unwilling to work shall not eat."

Like I said back in November, it’s going to take all 8 years to beat the Deep State and to get Trump’s agenda implemented. A long fight, and it gets easier the closer we get the 2018 elections when the GOPe players want to hang around longer and Trump gets his guys in Congress.

Too bad this would not be retro-active to include all those muslins Obama let in under the cover of darkness.

Sounds great! But let’s hope no judge throws this out ( say on 14th amendment grounds or?)

The only way for us to be serious is to take out Hatch in early June next year. Corker and FLAKE in August. Throw in Heller whenever.

“Gotta go back to requiring sponsors.”

It’s still in place. Sponsors are needed for the visa application. Not sure what the information is done afterwards.

You even feel that way about the truly disabled? Should they all just kill themselves or die of starvation once they’re unable to work?

It doesn’t say unable. It says unwilling.
