Looks like President Trump has positioned himself in a nice sweet spot..his base is sticking with him and he's appealing to Never Trumpers, moderates and even some Democrats (the small slice that's still sane).
This is something great to watch...all the veteran DC hacks said he wouldn't last...now they'll be standing in line to work with him.
Clinton used to call it TRIANGLE-ATION.
the young immigrants in legal limbo through no fault of their own,
____________________________________
if they are over the age of 18, then it is their own fault...
In our country, a person age 18 is an adult and can legally decide their life for themselves...they are no longer under the control of their parents..
these illegal aliens have nobody to blame but themselves that they are still here illegally...
Why not? Is Mexico some third world hell-hole or something?
If so, why is it one of the world's top tourist destinations?
If it's such a third world hell-hole, why do they go back for Thanksgiving, Christmas and other holidays?
If it's such a hell-hole, why isn't it up to their politicians to improve it?
I Have no problem supporting a trump deal where these 800,000 ,are made eligible for citizenship if they jump through some hoops, have no criminal background, and are not allowed chain immigration benefits in exchange for the wall and the raise act. Particularly if they were brought here under the age of 10, remained here for 15 years and have no real ties to their prior country, Mexico. Maybe it’s the Christian in me, but I can live with that charitable compromise. I can also live with no deal and letting them face the constant threat of deportation and no voting rights. Go figure.
An example of so-called journalism created to fir the left’s narrative.
I know Trumpsters, myself included, that would not be happy with a cave on DACA.
Not getting hard on the illegals would mean war to a lot of us.
I wonder if Mr. Hagstrom has read Ann Coulter’s book, “Adios America”?
Don’t think that several hundred thousand of starving Venezuelans won’t take notice.
And I would like to resurrect the horror stories of hard working families on/near the border who’s life and property have been trashed or eliminated. Where’s the humanity in that?
All this means is that there are Trump voters who are in reality politically clueless & they just voted name recognition or for their ‘team’.
The most I’m willing to accept is giving a green card to these dreamers & letting them work. No citizenship, no access to gov’t benefits, & they can be deported promptly if they commit a crime. That’s it.
Like HELL it is.
Remmeber.....RINORomney??? Ya know—the guy who once ran for president against an EIMINENTLY DEFEATABLE POTUS??
He lost-—’CAUSE ALL OF THE R’s WHO DID NOT SHOW UP!!
Same same here-—on this issue, ya snooze—YOU LOSE!
Drop your BEST ISSSUE and guess what..............??
They are just babies right? yeah, 20-40 and even 50 year old babies and children.
Let them stay. But, they cannot be citizens, they cannot vote, they cannot receive welfare or tax perks. Most would leave.
Just another in a long line of “final” amnesties. The transformation of America moves forward. I had hoped for better this time. I’m old enough to know better.
Our politicians are dirty dealers.
That is why the only way we play is if we get what we want first.
And
And what we agree to give them happens in stage over a period of years.
And they must meet certain conditions or the while deal is null and void.
“young immigrants in legal limbo through no fault of their own”
The LA Times
“young”= like `child refugees’, many bearded, military age males or reaching menopause now with anchor babies of their own now, having made no attempt over the years to seek citizenship
“immigrants”= foreign nationals in our country illegally, not `anchor babies’ or visa overstays
“legal limbo”= federal immigration law ignored and violated by Obama with an ultra vires, unilateral `executive action’ after Congress refused to pass his proposed DACA or DAPA (”stroke of the pen, law of the land—cool”)
“through no fault of their own”= not all children brought here by parents; many were gang members there and now here, seeking asylum, like the Tsaernaev family, by claiming to flee violence, then took regular vacations back to the hellhole they escaped
Every single word in this sentence is a lie.
It is truly amazing that DACA was dreamed up by Obama not that long ago and now it is accepted as an undiscovered law of nature. Same goes with trannies in the military.
DACA is merely an artificial segregation of illegal aliens using trickery to make them appear legal.
It is similar to the “eleven” million figure used to denote the number of illegals in this country. If Americans were apprised of the true number and how much it lowers their quality of life and how much greater it would lower their quality of life if granted amnesty, there would be another revolution.
I do not agree with this.
These people knew dam well that if they got across the border while she was pregnant, and that when the female dropped a calf, that they would be in like Flynn.
Make them go back and file to get back in like the rest.
This whole dam thing is a boondoggle for the shyster immigration lawyers.
This is another case where a Kennedy managed to screw up the country through his immigration legislation.
Here, I got a test for these. If they pass, they get to go in front of the line to file for citizenship FROM their country of origin.

End birthright citizenship; the anchor baby loophole by clarifying in writing with legalese the 14th Amendment was for slave children only. So only slave children of Americans today can be legal American citizens.
That number can’t be very high right; like zero unless they are slaves illegally which is possible but then they don’t fall under that Amendment.
#FakeNews. Again.
Also pass a law that ANYONE who violates US immigration law will NEVER be eligible for US citizenship.
