Trump on His Latest DACA Offer (tweets)
Twitter ^ | January 27, 2018 | President Donald J. Trump

Posted on 01/27/2018 9:26:41 PM PST by be-baw

From @realDonaldTrump Twitter account:

"I have offered DACA a wonderful deal, including a doubling in the number of recipients & a twelve year pathway to citizenship, for two reasons: (1) Because the Republicans want to fix a long time terrible problem. (2) To show that Democrats do not want to solve DACA, only use it!

"Democrats are not interested in Border Safety & Security or in the funding and rebuilding of our Military. They are only interested in Obstruction!"

I dunno. If this is what Trump is offering now, it seems reasonable to think he will offer (or give up) even more in order to get to a final deal.

Who in their right mind would ever offer the doubling of illegals to gain citizenship? He’s been great but to consummate this would end his presidency. Bad. As he would say.

The Dems are totally boxed in on this issue.

They've already rejected this new deal by Trump and you know damn well Trump isn't going to give them blanket amnesty so there'll be another gubmint shutdown and deportations will commence.

If the Dems would've accepted this it's not enough to swell the voting ranks and Trump's other priorities will put the kibbosh on the other stuff. Also I think conservatives would've melted the phone lines and DACA deal would have died in the House.

I just don't understand how politicians can put the concerns and needs of illegal aliens or the children of illegals ahead of taxpaying U.S. citizens.

Nope....he knows that the Dems won’t take the deal. He tripled the amount of DACA and they still won’t take it because they don’t want a border wall or end of chain migration or anything else. They want the Burger King deal....they want it their way...which is everything they want but no one else’s negotiations or deals. Run in 2018 on THIS!!!

Missing so many details—E-Verify for one, end chain migration. Guess don’t need those points in a short Tweet. Dems won’t play ball so time for him to face an equally obstructive group, GOPe.

LOL! You don’t understand. This puts Schumer and Pelosi in a big bind and will get enough dems to cross-over.

They’re not going to take the deal. They’re for open borders and he knows it....so do I. He set a trap for them, he’s been willing to give up things on the negotiation table and they STILL won’t budge!!!!

Let’s not lose our heads. First these illegal aliens are already here and many are already voting. What is the total figure of illegal aliens in the US. Not just st DACA.

No WALL! No DACA!

And I always left wondering about the elephant in the room. If you explicit give amnesty to 870,000 to now 1,800,000 illegal aliens, does that mean the other 30-60 million are earmarked and subject to immediate no more catch-and-release deportation? The question needs to be faced, otherwise it is DACA today, some other group tomorrow. No, need an end. Final.

I am rapidly coming to the conclusion that Trump is the Belichick of American politics. This is still early in the first half. Trump is just throwing options at the RINOS and DIMS to see how they react. He is keeping them on defense while he sees what they are capable of handling and what they are not. He is a million moves ahead of them

And remember, Trump is holding the winning hand. At the end of the day he can just let the clock run out on the Dreamers and start the deportations with the full Twitter-fed knowledge that he made a hundred different offers but Congress couldn't get their act together.

So this is just a ploy? Hmm...

Since only 20% of DACAs have high school diplomas (average age 27) and up to 25% have no working knowledge of English (wait...I thought America is the only country they've ever known), what are they really "contributing"?

And start with the nasty DACAs, the criminals, the welfare cases, the sex offenders and DUIs, of which there are MANY
