Would Trump lose your support if he caved on DACA?

Posted on 09/01/2017 5:57:18 PM PDT by GAGOP

Since nothing else has passed, this is what would do it for me. I am sick of Republicans. If he does keep DACA before tax reform and border wall, get used to Speaker Pelosi, Senate majority leader Schumer, and president Kamala Harris.

Because what he's done on immigration already has been nothing short of amazing.

Interesting. What, in your opinion, has he done?

Fear of deportation has slowed illegal immigration, not any action by the POTUS so far.
Enforcing current law on illegal aliens doesn't need POTUS approval.
Indicating only 'criminal aliens' will be deported is not doing something either. Crossing the border illegally, even as a child, is a criminal act so they are all criminals.

Think of it. Decades of criminal behavior with no consequences. and yet people wonder why illegal aliens commit so many crimes. No punishment breeds contempt for the law.

So go ahead and throw a childish tantrum about one facet of a much larger issue.

A childish tantrum? Like the one you're throwing?

And it's all part of one issue...illegal immigration!

Here is their message to you...

Whole agencies are being neutered, witness the cry fest at EPA. Transsexuals are on their way out of the military by his order. Dreamers are losing protection by his order. Illegals are being rounded up now, by his order. Can you say that about any of his predecessors since Eisenhower? The wall is moving ahead by his order. He pushed, pulled and shamed Ryan an McConnell by delaying the fall congresscritter recess, to repeal obummercare and THEY couldn't get it done.

The dims have been building the deep state for years if not decades, probably ever since earl warren went to the SCOTUS. As far as disloyal and subversive subordinates they have to out themselves then be exterminated like the roaches they are. That IS being done.

President Trump has done most of these things by himself with no support from the GOPe, absolute defiance from the dims, subversion and deceit by our media, and unfortunately, less than stellar support from his fair weather supporters.

Any reasonable person would realize that you have to eat an elephant one bite at a time and if you have no help, it takes longer. But, it can be done. If you didn't bring a plate and a fork then get the hell out of the way.

I am for the Wall, but why do I keep visualizing the thing getting blown up? Future Leftists are going to give it the old College try, that’s for sure.

I’m afraid he will get no funding for the wall unless...

You mean the GOPe would blackmail the POTUS and he would allow it?

It seems some Trump supporters are looking for excuses to 'jump ship'.

Trump is doing a great job and I will support him even if I disagree with him over some issues.

Non-citizens I should say. I was wrong to say “illegals”.

Mexicans have served along side Americans since the American Revolution. Now days, however, they are required to have a special skill first, or else at minimum a green card, but they are serving.

I kind of figure he will have to make a deal on this. That deal should include an end to the exploding school budgets and falling test scores (which tip marginal schools into failing ones) caused by a huge influx of ESL students. These costs are borne disproportionally by poor communities which at the same time they are paying higher taxes see jobs dry up and wages drop. Either the “Dreamers” are a good thing and part of a high tide that lifts every boat, or a little more thought will need to go into crafting a solution the country can live with. The solution Trump hammers out will probably be a complex one that no-one is happy with until it is ten years or so down the road.

Unless he holds the line and restores the rule of law it won’t matter if we are not happy, it won’t be our country anymore.

That was done by Spain, a long time British adversary, not their puppet State Mexico.

The Mexican-American war...one Oops takes away 10 Atta Boys.

Children of illegal aliens are misguidedly being given American birth certificates and US citizenship. Unless they came in illegally with their parents and grandparents, there are no three generation illegal alien families.

We should feel no guilt for other people breaking into our country.

I think he will come up with some kind of compromise.

I will never stop supporting President Trump.

He would lose my vocal support absolutely. I would welcome a challenger to make him one term.

How can you say that? Trump can end DACA and veto any amnesty. If he doesn’t, that is on him.

I am willing to compromise on this in exchange for funding of the wall and aggressive funding of ICE. And it needs to be legalization with a long standard path to citizenship. I don’t have a problem with kids who literally grew up here staying if it means we fix the problem for the next generations.

Numero Uno for me is putting Conservative Justices on the SCOTUS. So far he is golden.

Secondly, putting Conservative Judges on every Appeal and District Court, filling every current Vacancy.
I’ve read he is getting that done, golden again.

Anything else he might get done can be undone as soon a Rat wins the White House.

Maybe not the Border Wall, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the next Rat President pushed to tear it down and act like it was the second coming of the Berlin Wall.

You know...it’s funny. I was never a Trump supporter, altho I voted for him. Much of what he does, frankly, drives me crazy. BUT, he is absolutely right about the swamp. And I’m warming to him. I am stunned ( having been a “governmental official” myself), how Obama corrupted the IRS, and the intelligence agencies.

He is the only person right now who, despite his faults, can ever drain it.

Remember one thing, Trump is the President, not the King.

The Rats and RINO’s are out to sink every part of his Agenda.

A number of squishy Conservative Republican leftovers are Cowards.

If President Trump says no to DACA, you can bet a dollar to a donut that the GOP will pass Legislation reinstating all or part of it and they will build a Veto proof Majority in collusion with the Rats.

And which of the other 14 or 15 would have done half of what he has accomplished to date? None would have rescinded Obamacare, stopped the sanctuary city payments (Sessions working on that) and tried to limit immigration. They were all globalists.

I think this is all part of his big negotiation. He wants the wall and he wants tax reform more than he wants this. Just watch.
