Just as I predicted, President @realDonaldTrump backed off on his threat of tariffs against Mexico.

Trump’s success in getting Mexico to agree to do more to curb the flow of illegal immigrants through their country and into the United States should be receiving universal praise, but unfortunately, Democrats, who we all know want to see illegal immigration increase to help secure their party’s power in government, couldn’t concede that Trump’s plan worked.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called Trump’s tariff threat, which succeeded in its goal, a counterproductive exercise in “threats and temper tantrums.”
“President Trump undermined America’s preeminent leadership role in the world by recklessly threatening to impose tariffs on our close friend and neighbor to the south,” Pelosi, a California Democrat, said Saturday morning. “Threats and temper tantrums are no way to negotiate foreign policy.”[...]
Pelosi said she was “deeply disappointed” by the asylum provisions of the deal, which she claimed “violates the rights of asylum seekers under U.S. law and fails to address the root causes of Central American migration.”
But the most absurd comment came from Senator Chuck Schumer:
Just as I predicted, President @realDonaldTrump backed off on his threat of tariffs against Mexico.
If you read through the entire thread it is clear Schumer is accusing Trump of caving to bipartisan pressure and backing off his threat to impose tariffs on Mexico. Seriously? Mexico agrees to do what Trump wanted, and yet Schumer tries to spin it as a Trump defeat. Trump did get criticism from both sides of the aisle, and there were even threats of a vote to stop the tariffs if they were to take effect. But Trump got the deal he was looking for. Spinning this as a defeat is pure nonsense.
This is really what Trump Derangement Syndrome has come to. Democrats can’t even acknowledge when Trump succeeds in doing what he set out to do. This is why they can’t acknowledge that the economy has improved on his watch, or try to give the credit to Barack Obama. Trump’s success in getting Mexico to do more to stop illegal immigration before it reaches our border is something his base will not forget in 2020. Democrats know that if illegal immigration is in fact reduced because of these efforts by Mexico that Trump will be even more difficult to beat in 2020.
Is it wrong of me to think of Piano Wire and Meat Hooks every time I hear anything about Antsy Pelosi and Chuck the Schmuck?
These folks really do hate the American people who will not vote for them. Totalitarians.

Well Chuckster, that’s kinda what you do once you’re SUCCESSFUL.
They are both WELL past their, ‘Use By’ Date!
Term Limits For ALL! Yesterday!
Don’t forget lampposts
“The blind hatred of President Trump by Chuckie and Nanzy is making them look more and more like they belong in a care facility.”
Watch as they increase the pressure on their allies in the field organizing this Cloward-Piven invasion of our border.
What does that say about Micro Rubio and Flimsey Grahamnesty who want to give them a permanent majority with amnesty for illegal aliens?
Amen! These two are the best possible examples for the need of term limits.
It seems as if Schumer is saying Trump caved by not going far enough to the right on this when Trump did indeed go way over to the right on this, and needed to.
Since when did Schumer ever advocate anything but going to the political left?
The most aggravating thing about this President, so far as the Democrats are concerned, is that he just can’t quit WINNING long enough to make them look good.
Chuck and San Fran Nan both belong in a prison cell and should stay there until the end of World War VII.
Let's wrap this FReepathon up Folks, Donate Today!
LOL at caved..please..Mexico basically gave Trump everything he wanted, but of course the commie left will NEVER admit defeat..and they want open borders so badly to get those Democrat voters in
Democrats = illegals party
Well said, hopefully they keep doubling down cuz they’re only hurting themselves.

Well Nancy, what have they done for us........EVER.
Other than bash President Trump a few thousand times, what has Nancy done since she became Speaker?
That makes the Dems look very childish and small.
