Trump defends immigration proposal against 'amnesty' criticism from conservatives
The Hill ^ | January 20, 2019 | Brett Samuels

Posted on 01/20/2019 9:15:10 AM PST by 4Runner

In a series of tweets, Trump chastised Democrats for dismissing his plan, and attempted to assuage immigration hard-liners who likened the administration's latest proposal to amnesty for immigrants already in the country illegally.

"No, Amnesty is not a part of my offer," Trump tweeted. "It is a 3 year extension of DACA. Amnesty will be used only on a much bigger deal, whether on immigration or something else. Likewise there will be no big push to remove the 11,000,000 plus people who are here illegally-but be careful Nancy!"

How do you sort them from those who jumped the fence last week?

The DACA have registered and paid taxes.

Still hasn't dawned on you that just like if Jeb! had won there wouldn't be a Wall and Hillary wouldn't be locked up.

Jeb was the designated loser so that's a nonstarter. Trump won even though he wasn't supposed to. Trump keeps winning on taxes, judges and other important stuff. Finally, I have yet to hear a name of a person who was supposed to build the wall by now, lock up Hillary, etc. Criticize all you want, and hold Trump to his promises. But Trump is as good as it gets.

Any Republican president could have passed the Tax Cut, it was a pet project of Paul Ryan.

Jury is still out on just how conservative these Trump judge picks will be.

And in many states, Illegal Immigration is a huge issue.

And it was a cornerstone of Trump's 16' campaign.

So was the idea of not even a Clinton being above the law.

Somehow I missed that part at all those rallies about Federal Prison Inmate reform...

You will be dividing families.
I’d rather keep families together, in their own country.

Wow, you sure have an unrealistic view of the world. Who would you rather have as president? Besides yourself, of course.

It's unrealistic to actually hold a politician to their campaign promises about illegal alien amnesty, build the wall and lock her up?

Many of the so called dreamers were approaching their 20s when this started.
Soon they will be retiring?
I don’t feel sorry for them.
And they shouldn’t be angry at a America.
They should be angry at their criminal parents.

So if every promise isn’t been completed yet, Trump has failed?

Want so cheese with your whine?

How do they file tax returns with no I.D. or SS card?

You seem to put a lot of faith in O’bastard’s illegal amnesty.

I repeatedly plead for e-Verify to be implemented for all current and future work. It would solve most of the problem by removing job opportunities. That should go with the wall.

Trump said he's not going to prosecute Hillary at a rally.

Pelosi isn't going to fund the wall, she'd rather have the economy crash through the government shutdown and deal with Kamala Harris as president in 2020 or have Trump reopen the government without the wall and have him deal with his supporters.

Want so cheese with your whine?

What whining? I'm observing Trump's actions, he never pushed for a Wall until he knew it was too late and now he's going wobbly on amnesty.

The Republic under the Constitution ended on Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009 when ALL of our elected and appointed clapped like trained seals for a British subject/Kenyan/Indonesian usurper.

The wall will be tied up in court for 2 years and the 2020 Election will decide its fate.

_____________________________________________________

This alone will be highly demoralizing to the base. 4 years into his presidency and he’s not started delivering on his PRIMARY promise. Anyone who supports Trump had better hope this isn’t the way things play out.

You haven't offered up a name of your perfect president, one who could get elected and cut as many regulations as Trump has.

We both know that the country is run by the elite and many people here subscribe to the bread and circuses, paying subscription fees to enemies of America. Saving America starts at home, the president can't do that. We also know that in general politicians are not going to cut spending and that will eventually lead to bankruptcy. Trump is no different from other politicians in wanting to spent more,but he also knows that MAGA means we can successfully absorb immirgants, grow the economy and have a softer landing in the end.

As for prosecuting Hillary, her underlings were all given immunity. Her crimes include negligence and encouraging circumventing laws to protect classified data. Very hard case, takes a lot of investigation and a lot of the evidence was destroyed by the prior fake investigation.

I totally disagree with you. But, I totally support your right to be very wrong and very miserable.
