In a meeting with establishment politicians from the Problem Solvers Caucus and the Blue Dog Coalition, President Trump signaled a full-fledged cave on the issue of giving amnesty to nearly 800,000 illegal aliens currently protected by an Obama-created executive immigration program.
Since Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced the ultimate end to the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, under which hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens were given work permits and temporary protected status, Trump has remained unclear on whether he would stick to his anti-amnesty campaign promises or cave to the political establishment.
At his White House meeting with moderates, according to The Hill, Trump is set to choose a legislative deal that quickly legalizes the nearly 800,000 illegal aliens on DACA, without getting any pro-American immigration reforms in return:
Indeed, said Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas), the president is already getting impatient.
“He says, ‘Oh, DACA, we want to move on this quick, we don’t want to wait six months,’” Cuellar said after the meeting. “He said, ‘It’s already been six days and nothing’s happened.’”
Cuellar said Trump didn’t propose a timeline, but voiced concerns that waiting until the March 5 deadline grows closer would only put a spotlight on the issue and make it more difficult for Congress to act. The president, Cuellar said, wants to move “when people are not expecting it.”
...
Although Trump is looking at pushing through a clean amnesty bill for DACA recipients, he did mention during the meeting, according to Cuellar, the possibility of passing Sen. Tom Cotton’s (R-AR) pro-American worker “RAISE Act,” which cuts legal immigration in half, in exchange for amnesty.

Does anyone here honestly think DJT is going to throw out hundreds of thousands of “Dreamers”; specifically those who are in college, or have served in the military? Of course he won’t. He was never going to.
Just like the wall. There will never be a wall. You can turn your flamethrower on full blast at me if you want, but a “Pacific to Gulf” wall has always been a fantasy, and campaign rhetoric, and will never happen.
DJT talks. A LOT, and says a lot of things. But I’ll go back to the original reason he won. Liberals took him literally, but not seriously. Conservatives took him seriously, but not literally.
Don’t care.
If this (#) is true, I’m done.
I knew him meeting with Pelosi and Schumer would result in no good.
From Breitbart? Riiigghhht. 25 degree chess.
What you are saying is that he is like every other politician..full of campaign promises that he never meant to fulfill.
To be accurate the entire wall has not been funded and was is being “built” is repair and replacement.
Unless Breitbart is part of the dealing going on. Trump didn’t cave on anything. Anything that happens will benefit him and the things he wants.That’s us.
I don’t disagree completely with hanity. Problem is getting a deal done just for the sake of getting a deal done is freaking easy. It doesn’t take a swamp drainer, tough guy to make that happen. Pocahontas could do that. We expect him to fight it out, even if he loses.
>> Paul Ryan has now publicly stated that the wall will never be funded <<
Where did you get that info?
From another “click bait” Breitbart headline?
The government just awarded contracts for new prototype wall construction. This takes time to do right. Not gonna just slap up wall.
Some people fall for #FakeNews every time.
There is a video.
“Very Reaganesque of him.”
That worked out well
You Post opinions from Schumer, Pelosi and Celluar and obviously believe them but when Donald Trump refutes them you don’t give him any credit at all. makes me wonder what you are.
I’m a early trump adopter but the DACAns get more attention then tax cuts, health care? Foreign kids before us and ours. No way. So yes Mr President I do want these kids gone so that throughout the continent terrible mothers know that they can’t abandon their kids on a us bound train. This was what you Mr President promised
lose his base and then open to impeachment?? You’re creative...I’ll give you that....just like the rotten media.
Get back to me when the wall funding has passed both the House and the Senate. Prototypes? I have made hundreds of prototypes for the .gov world. Hardly any of them were actually put into production or full implementation.
no can do, my friend. pretty sure we’ve been sold out.
