“Nuclear option. Cut social programs, increase defense, pay for wall, kill DACA.”


You forgot, “kill birthright citizenship.”

There is support from the Ministry of Propaganda for Schumer’s Schemers, but the American citizens want the illegal DACA program shut down and the illegal aliens removed.

DACA was never legal, they are and have always been fraudulently documented foreigners.
If we do not restore the rule of law, we lose the country.

I’m not that big on the border wall anyway. It would be nice, but so would enforcement of existing laws and borders.

Enforcing the laws doesn't work if the border is not secure, they simply come right back as they have been doing for years.

You said we should enforce the borders, how do we do that without a wall or a serious secure fence?

He’s in a box of Trump’s creation

Yup. I picture President Trump just sitting at his desk, smiling, shaking his head, saying, "I can't believe this guy. This is beautiful."

They easily have the votes in the Senate to pass any amnesty they want.

We only have Cotton, Grassley and Perdue definitely on the side of the citizens and the rule of law.

Flake, Corker, Hatch, Heller, Alexander, Graham, McCain, Murkowsky, Hoeven, Rubio, Tillis, Burr, Lankford, Gardner, Cornyn, Cochran, Collins, Sasse, Kennedy, Shelby, Ernst, Blunt, McConnell, Wicker, Portman, Isakson, Johnson, Toomey, Rounds, Thune, Barasso and Enzi are all in favor of amnesty

I love it with Scummer compromising with himself. I can think of something else he can do to himself.

“Democrats Against Citizens of America”


Oh, how I so want Trump to Tweet that. The entire media and Left (but I repeat myself) will go completely bat-shit, barking at the Moon, mouths frothing with foam, CRAZY...

...and the average American will smile and say, “Yeah, that’s about right.”

Seesh, so many posters here on FR think Trump is a hapless idiot.

Apparently you among them.

Trump has all sorts of Leverage for the wall.

Do you mean that your only hope is to have Trump veto this bill passed in both houses? Is that not a field day for the leftist? Do you mean that McConnell, for no real apparent reason, put Trump in an untenable position? “The president vetoes DACA” . God, what a slaughter that will be. We had them where we wanted them and MCConnell absolutely stabbed us in the back. That is my view. Hope you are right but just don’t buy it.

Just remember that Trump and Schemer go WAY back - they’re both from NYC, and their careers have roughly coincided in time. You just KNOW that Schumer has come to Trump for money, etc. over time, and you just KNOW that Trump probably has a report on every time that Schemer took a leak for the last 40 years.

Trump is the cat playing with the mouse it caught - before he kills it and eats it.

And the Democrats thought the McConnell couldn’t be trusted. Schumer sabotaged his own talks!

Ryan doesn’t have the testicular fortitude to even allow a floor vote on ANY immigration issue that doesn’t have Trump’s express approval. Ryan used to think that he had Trump by the short hairs, but he found out that the facts showed exactly the opposite. Ryan will NOT cross Trump on immigration, count on it.

And, yes, I know - Ryan is one of the slimiest, smarmiest slugs on Crapitol Hill (which says a lot). But he knows that Trump can crush him like a bug. Also, he knows that if he makes a fool of Trump, his days as Speaker will end no later than January 1, 2019.

Well, the border is really not as insecure as people think. Sure, a wall is needed in some places, but truth be told, simple security measures and enforcement could go a LONG way.

Dude.

You have no frickin clue on how to negotiate.

I walked away from a deal last month and the customer called two days ago wanting our service on the terms I originally proposed.
