LOL. Shumer didn’t look too happy after that meeting with Trump. I wonder what was discussed?...:). Maybe gave him a peep of the memo.

[Lopeover]

WOW!

What kind of DACA deal could possibly pass SCOTUS if SCOTUS already ruled it is an illegal action. This would have to be a major immigration re-write.

SCOTUS ruled that Obama's EO was the illegal action. If Congress passes legislation that legalizes DACA, that's a horse of a different color.

Thanks, this has been added to phase two of what the illegals are doing to America.

I suspect what really made Chuckie soil his shorts was looking at the weekend polling data and focus groups.

The Left caved on shut down?

What happened to convincing us that the Republicans had been the ones shutting down the government?

[11th_VA]

The Atlantic:there was little they could do to sugarcoat the outcome: Democrats will come out of the shutdown with nothing more than a commitment to address immigration on the Senate floor in a process that is “neutral and fair to all sides”—not necessarily to pass a bill that will give citizenship to Dreamers, nor a promise that such a bill would survive the more conservative House and earn Trump’s signature.

[Charles Martel]

The Dems must have did a little Polling and went, OMG !!!!!!

[epluribus_2]

DACA happened via an illegal, extra-constitutional Executive Order. Before the next vote the president solve/end it as an issue with a legal, constitutional one bypassing Schumer completely.

[TangoLimaSierra]

All this appears to be doing is agreeing for running the gov for 2 1/2 weeks.

It also teaches the Dems that their tactics won't work like they used to.

How about a plan to protect American citizens from the illegal alien so called “dreamers” ???

How about a deportation plan for those “dreamers” ???

That’ll work...

Good point. Why is it a starting point for BOTH sides that a large group of illegal aliens gets to stay here? Because “it’s not their fault”? Well, cry me a river.

Schumer has a big problem that’s not even been mentioned in the coverage of this matter: restoration and repair of Penn. Central Station, a new rail tunnel, and massive rail repairs. All of that is essential to the whole NYC area and its economy. With the Witch as President the 15 billion plus dollars needed for the project would have been wired. With PDJT the whole project is in question. Methinks that has been quietly on the table throughout these negotiations. PDJT, being a New Yorker, knows all the pressure points and the New York economic interests that are more than willing to put pressure on Schumer to come across in negotiations like the present.

They get another chance to shut ‘er down in three weeks.

Let’s put some facts into the mix

OH NOOOOOEZ...etc.....

The day these illegal alien so called “children” turn 18 they are now committing crimes in their own names...they are now adults and responsible for their own behavior, their own crimes...their own illegal presence in our country...

IOW it is now “their fault”

Although it still remains the fault of the illegal alien parents also...

I’ll accept that the under age illegal aliens could be excused from “fault” for their illegal presence but we are told they were dragged here “unwillingly” kicking and screaming and digging in their heels and losing their tiny fingernails in the door jam etc...SOB SOB etc

so why don’t they run their 18 yo butts home to Mexico the moment they are free to make it right ???

and why didn’t ever they tell someone (police, teacher, neighbor etc) of the awful abuse by their parents ???

“HELP HELP I’m being kept here illegally by my parents...I want to go home to Mexico I don’t want to be here illegally. I didn’t want to come here. I begged my parents not to make me break American immigration laws but they wouldn’t listen they beat me and made me come with them”

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm ???

[libstripper]

They lost because, for the first time in their experience, they were up against a real fighter, our PRESIDENT TRUMP.

[MayflowerMadam]

“How about a nice tall cup of MAGA?”

I think they’d like COVFEFE better.

[RayChuang88]

Let the Left beat up on Charles “Chuckie” Schumer and Nancy “Crumbs” Pelosi. :-)

[MayflowerMadam]

“I’m not sure I see the winning.”

In the big picture, that’s true. But the Rats never see the big picture, and they think they lost this round. That psychological situation is worth a lot.

[Mariner]

All anyone needs to know is there are 24 Dim Senators up for re-election in 2018.

10 from states won by Trump.

I’m sure Chuckie was getting calls from all of them, threatening a public break with the official Party Line.

Imagine the campaign ads...
