Look at the deal that Trump made with Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer on the three month budget.
Pardon me while my breakfast turns into emesis.
No AMNESTY, deport these illegal aliens AND THEIR ILLEGAL ALIEN FAMILIES.
He’s sticking it to the RINO’s.
One thing I’ve always found comical about the phrase, “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” is, which of the two enemies is your friend?
Which is worse, the enemy in your own family, or the enemy on the outside? Which is easier to fight?
He wants to see what will happen? You’ll lose your base pal and be a one term failed POTUS. You’re dealing with two traitors to the United States
This is how politics is supposed to be done. The legislative body ought to create legislation. The two parties should approach this in a bipartisan manner.
If Congress fails, they can’t blame Trump.
If Congress fails, we drop the EO and enforce the body of laws we already have — which works out badly for the criminal immigrants. Oh well.
I think Trump has positioned himself very well.
Therefore implying that there are those who DON'T like to see something happen...
I have to admit it’s been a bit of a letdown watching Trump deal/capitulate with the DEMs. My wife, who is usually much more of a “glass is full” person than I am when it comes to politics has been starting to question why she even voted for Trump.
Bill Clinton triangulated. Trump thinking about doing the same thing. This deal would have happened anyways.
Bottom line, they couldn’t get McCain’s vote for Repeal; that would have changed everything.
Ryan and McConnell are not friends of Trump.
I would NEVER work with Schumer and the Dems. Trump should have continued to held the GOP's feet to the fire. Pass a stand-alone Harvey bill. Then do a clean, responsible budget instead of these CRs and government shutdown melodramatics.
Now when the next SCOTUS vacancy comes up, Schumer is going to press Trump to push for a "Mainstream" (LEFTIST) choice. And McConnell will have no incentive to use the nuclear option.
This has Javanka written all over it.
Everyone just rushes to assume this means he wants amnesty. He’s just not a jerk and doesn’t want this to bounce around forever. Repukes are the stupid party for a reason
He’s right:
I want to see boxcars stuffed full headed south.
And I want my wall.
Remove ALL illegal aliens
Restore the rule of law
Secure the border
Our nation is a Felllini movie now
PING
The deal on the 3-month budget was no different than what McConnell and Ryan wanted they just wanted it for longer. That was pure Politics on their part and a message from Trump. Let’s face it they haven’t delivered a damn thing.
Don the Con.
No Wall. Ever.
And we get Amnesty.
White House spokeswoman: Having kids prepared me for dealing with reporters
The important thing to keep in mind about Trump dealing with Chuck and Nancy is that he undoubtedly still has MAGA as his main goal.
Although Trump is accomplishing a LOT as president, it remains that since the uniparty Congress wants to get rid of him that his first two years in office are arguably for practice. That being said ...
Drain the swamp sewer! Drain the sewer!
Remember in November 2018 !
Since corrupt Congress is the biggest part of the sewer (imo) that Trump wants to drain, it is actually up to patriots to drain the sewer in the 2018 elections, patriots supporting Trump by electing as many new members of Congress as they can who will support Trump.
In the meanwhile, patriots need to make sure that there are plenty of Trump-supporting candidates on the primary ballots.
Patriots need to qualify candidates by asking them why the Founding States made the Constitutions Section 8 of Article I; to limit (cripple) the federal governments powers.
Patriots also need to make sure that candidates are knowledgeable of the Supreme Court's clarifications of the federal governments limited powers listed here.
Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States. Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
"State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added]." Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]. United States v. Butler, 1936.
Also, unlike incumbent members of Congress who wrongly remained silent while misguided state officials abridged the constitutionally enumerated rights of citizens during the lawless Obama Administration, patriots need to make sure that candidates on the 2018 primary ballots commit to the following.
Candidates need to commit to making and enforcing 14th Amendment-related laws to prosecute misguided state officials who use state powers to abridge constitutionally enumerated protections, 1st Amendment-protected religious expression and free speech for example, such actions prohibited by Section 1 of the 14th Amendment.
14th Amendment, Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Again, drain the sewer! Drain the sewer!
