It seems many here believe this is all good and is part of Art of the Deal.

Okay..so what’s the deal? Well......

Cave on dreamers and maybe we will give you enhanced border security..note Cornyn didn’t say wall.

White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said the president would look to Congress to pass a “responsible immigration reform package” with money to control the border with Mexico and better protect American workers’ jobs — along with protecting the so-called “dreamers” covered by DACA.

“Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn, R-Texas, the No. 2 Senate Republican, said if Trump truly wants a comprehensive immigration reform package, including a solution for the 11 million immigrants in the country illegally, he’s certain to be disappointed. Congress tried that and failed in 2013, and GOP leaders immediately ruled it out Tuesday.

“Guaranteed failure,” Cornyn said.

If the goal is a more incremental package that combines a solution for the “dreamers” with steps such as visa reforms and enhanced border security, “there may be a deal to be had,” Cornyn said.

Read 163. So much needless and baseless speculation going on.
