Lindsey Graham Working on Bill to Protect Dreamers if Trump Revokes Obama Executive Actions
Mediaite ^ | November 30, 2016 | Justin Baragona

President-elect Donald Trump ran on a platform of being extremely tough on immigration. One of his vows to voters was that he’d get rid of President Barack Obama’s executive actions, which could include those that provided protections to young undocumented immigrants from being deported.

One Republican lawmaker and Trump critic is now prepping legislation that would keep those protections in place in case Trump moves forward with his pledge. Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has said he is working with both Democrats and Republicans in order to protect immigrants, known as Dreamers, who willingly came forward to give their information in order to receive permits to work legally under Obama’s 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals.

According to Politico, Graham stated that something needs to be done to help those who embraced DACA.

“The worst outcome is to repeal the legal status that these kids have,” Graham said Wednesday...

These people are not “Dreamers”, they are not “Undocumented Immigrants”, they are ILLEGAL ALIENS!

If they last 6 months, Trump isn’t doing the job.

We haven’t come this far to let the likes of these scumbags interfere in the push to Make America Great Again.

All opposition must be ruthlessly and mercilessly destroyed.

The party is over, all bets off.

Lindsay Graham and the other Establishment Republicans have been corrupt for so long, that this is surely completely money driven. There has to be some bribe (i.e. campaign contribution) behind this.

It could be the agriculture industry who need the pickers to stay, or some other industry that needs the labor.

What they don’t realize is that a legal work permit system will probably be created, and that foreign workers could still work here, except they would be documented and legal and they probably have to go home after work period expires.

Aren`t you supposed to represent the people of South Carolina, Limpsey? Something tells me the vast majority of South Carolinians would have some interesting and colorful advice to give you about what you can do with your legislation.

Someone should attach an amendment requiring that all these “dreamers” be settled in South Carolina.

Witness the RINOs as they snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. “It’s like déjà vu all over again.”

I wish she, Linda Grahmnesty, would join the Democratic Party. He, Jeb Bush, Kasich, and Romney would be good leaders of the Democrats.

Let’s hope this bill isn’t given a vote on the Senate floor.

Lindsay and McCain seem hell-bent on interfering with, or preventing, or cancelling every possible corrective action President Trump might attempt for the last 8 years of anti-American sedition and destruction

are they in the pay of Soros/DNC/or????
and is there any way to neutralize their efforts for at least the next year or two while we all try to fix what’s been broken?

My theory has been they are going to use their power to leverage. Trump needs to smash them

“The worst outcome is to repeal the legal status that these kids have,”

They are probably middle aged.

I am convinced that Linda’s main goal is to attract attention to himself.

He will be interviewed by the MSM. His heart will bleed gallons for the underprivileged of other countries. It will make him feel better about himself.
