The White House has been using “responsible immigration reform” as a euphemism for amnesty. (Editorial comment in article)

“We’re not looking at citizenship, we’re not looking at amnesty. We’re looking at allowing people to stay here.”

Potato, potahto.

No confusion. President Trump said on the tarmac at Fort Meyers, Florida that there will be no citizenship for these DACA people.

Whatever.

Realistically, there is and has always been zero percent chance that the US government is going to round up and deport 800,000 people who were born here and have never known any other country.

People like to indulge in fantasies all the time, but there is reality.

There is no confusion. The President is using DACA as a bargaining chip to fund the border wall and the immigration proposal - RAISE.

Open your eyes.

Why would we give citizenship to anyone who invaded our country illegally?
Lock them up until they can be deported.

This headline moves the goal line. Amnesty is not about citizenship. That has never been the issue. The issue is rewarding those who have broken our laws with American’s jobs, free healthcare, welfare, social security that they never paid for. Amnesty is about inducing others to flood in with or without children. They vote anyway. It has been shown the 5 million voted in the presidential election in 208. To hell with citizenship. Did you know that a law cannot be past to negate a violation of the preexisting laws. That is EX post facto and is uncostitutional as hell and is invalid. Dont let the Rino Socialist make you think they are doing good with illegal aliens because they aren’t bestowing citizenship on these criminals.That is a false argument for the mentally weak.

RE:”President Donald Trump says he isn’t considering giving citizenship to illegal immigrants, but his spokeswoman Lindsay Walters and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi say he is. “

OK, I know this game.

So they set expectations for citizenship so if Trump-Pelosi-Schumer gives them Green cards then those who defend anything Trump does can claim that he won a big one by not giving them citizenship, when Green cards would be a much bigger prize for illegals than DACA is now.

Any capitulation to illegals, and that includes DACA, is seen across the border for exactly what it is: defacto amnesty for illegals.

And the flood to get into the United States will be as large as ever. Because the politicians we elect put sympathy for trespasser foreign nationals ahead of Americans whose neighborhoods have been ruined by massive illegal immigration.

California became what it is because of this. We now have Democrats who openly side with illegal immigrants and defy U.S. law. And why shouldn’t they? Their “opposition” is the gutless, feckless GOP who routinely stab their voters in the back.

I already know where this leads to, living in once-American SoCal. The rest of you are in for a shock.

“We’re not looking at citizenship, we’re not looking at amnesty. We’re looking at allowing people to stay here.”

That is amnesty, Mr. President.

Distinction without a difference. Six of one, half a dozen of the other.

Unfortunately, some of us are not at all surprised by this.

All I wanted from Trump and all I expected was to keep Hillary out of the White House and for him to nominate a conservative to fill Scalia’s seat on the SCOTUS. I got both. There were far too many FReepers that foolishly thought Trump was the Second Coming. I don’t feel sorry for ya’ll.

Trump is taking responsibility for a bad situation. Whether you like it not we let them stay for all these years now we own their situation.

Get a deal done making sure we know who exactly is in this country and have a real enforceable boarder.

Sounds like a realistic plan Trump is working on.

If they are permitted to stay (WORK) then they are green-lighted for continuing ID theft and the ongoing corrosive effects of various traitor pols who will easily agitate them into amnesty over time.

Bait and Switch Donny has made suckers of us all.

Barely half a year into office and he’s turned hard left.

It’s all but certain that the third-world invasion of our homeland is set to accelerate, not slow, under this loser.

“responsible immigration reform” is the new “fix our broken immigration system” was the new “comprehensive health care reform”.

we all remember how that turned out
