White House proposes path to citizenship for 1.8 million people
CNN ^

Posted on 01/25/2018 2:19:04 PM PST by janetjanet998

Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump is proposing giving 1.8 million young undocumented immigrants a pathway to citizenship in exchange for $25 billion for his long-promised wall and a host of other strict immigration cuts, according to a framework proposed Thursday. The outlines of the deal were described by a White House official for staff on Capitol Hill that CNN was given access to on Thursday afternoon. In what the White House official called a "dramatic concession," Trump would accept a path to citizenship for not just those originally eligible for DACA but for a broader population, adding up to 1.8 million people, the official said.

I guess you don’t read well...

Look below...does that look like DACA??? No! Let them call it DACA or Trump, but change the meaning.


Can you tell me when Trump disappointed you last?

If not, then shut up and let him let this play out.

If he requires 10 yrs for them to become citizens and jump through a bunch of other things, much like anyone who, “gets in line and follows the law of how to become a citizen” then is that ok?

And, they can’t vote until they are citizens...would that be ok???

I’d suggest that is what we are asking for anyway.

So we are building a wall around the east coast, gulf States, West Coast, Canada, and Alaska. Good to know, you do realize that tunnels are effective, bribery is effective, under-the-table- dealings are effective, a future Congress/Administration “tearing down those walls” are effective, airplanes are effective, speed boats are effective, mules are effective, globalism/trade is effective.

The Trump is Great contingent is very silent tonight. Yeah, even THEY know that we are all being stabbed in the back in return for a little praise from leftists.
Before tonight, I’d have given Trump an 8 or 9 of 10. If this passes, he is a ZERO. Nothing else matters.

Okay with DACA path towards citizenship. End migration. Build Wall in under budget and completely built by 2019. In this order:

Wall - Funded and Built - under budget within less than normal timeframe
End Migration
DACA become citizens

Done.

In addition to that, add E-Verify.

Then take some of the Dreamers that are actually attending schools and allow them to get student visas while applying for citizenship. Let those who are employed get work visas and apply for citizenship. Then do background checks. Those who don’t qualify, get deported.

Its True. The wall of course becomes irrelevant. Not possible to judge how long or when any person come into country. Will be left with a monument of stupidity.

I agree. This is betrayal, a slippery slope, sure way to destroy the USA. If Trump does this, he has lost my support, and I can never trust him again.

The Dreamers have already received many benefits. Now is time for them leave. I don't care if the go to college or join the military.

Right! Also, the operational words are 10 to 12 years until citizenship and meeting all other qualifications for citizenship. This means NO! voting for 10-12 years. Think the Dems will bite?

There are 900, I believe, in the military. I would accept them ONLY. This proposal, before negotiations BEGIN, will kill us.

10 years can be cut in 4 with the next Democrat President in 2020. I still remember 1986 and the broken promises. Trump in 2015 and his promise to deport/pressure (No wall yet).

When Trump started going soft, posters like yourself promised he was playing 4d chess. Know you change your tune and promise this 10 bull crap that can be changed by a future Congres and/or administration. Tired of promises and 4d crap, this is all about fundamentals and preserving the generations to come.

New York is already stating they will attempt giving DACA recipients "free" tuition for college. Screw Trump's 10 year BS and amnesty. States will do it for them financially off the tax payer.

Trump the deal-maker in action: Trump proposes something very reasonable in terms of give-and-take, something that will appear VERY reasonable to the vast majority of regular folks, knowing damn good and well that the Dems will reject it, and thereby give Trump the high moral ground and allow him to tar the Dems as unreasonable, uncaring, and obstructionistic.

This is brilliant! Simply brilliant!

It really doesn’t get any better that this ...

Yes, Trump lost the base if he goes through with it. And it means a loss also for the GOP.

Reagan gave amnesty, an alleged one-time things, and that sure backfired big time.

You may be right, but Trump did’t have to propose a nauseating, treasonous capitulation to lawlessness and third-worldism.
