House Speaker Paul Ryan said during a Friday interview Democrats will have to stomach the fact that President Donald Trump will advance immigration reform.
Ryan spoke with WISNs Vicki McKenna at length about immigration and the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
Theyll have to stomach the fact that yes, this president will be successful in doing something that hasnt been done for years, which is advancing some immigration reform, advancing security, advancing enforcement, and advancing a law that fixes the DACA problem so these kids dont get kicked out, Ryan said.
That would be a victory for this president. And that would be, if youre a politician and youre partisan and you dont want to see him be successful, that will be a tough pill to swallow.
Ryan noted that Democrats who do not support border security are simply playing partisan politics.
Its only common sense that we secure our border, he said. Having control of your borders should not be partisan. I think its a real mistake if because [some Democrats]dislike Donald Trump so much and they dont want to see him get any success that theyre gonna stop us from actually securing our border. I dont think thats a sustainable position.
The compromise that we will advance will be one that includes securing the border.
Ryan also addressed Wednesdays White House meeting between Trump, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi that centered on immigration. Reports said the group came to an agreement on a border security bill that would protect DACA recipients and also excluded a border wall, but Ryan said no deal was made.
The dinner was a discussion, not a deal, Ryan said.
Don’t know if anybody on here is on Twitter, but today Bill Mitchell was calling for trading tax cuts for Amnesty. WTF is wrong with that dude? He’s ready to give away America’s sovereignty for a frickin tax cut
We went from MAGA to DACA.
8 months into this, it is hard for me to say what is what.
Trump undercut Trump
Before election:
The executive order gets rescinded.
We have to make a whole new set of standards. And when people come in they have to come in legally.
Were gonna keep the families together. We have to keep the families together. But they have to go.
They have to go.
They have to go.
After election:
Were working on a plan for DACA. People want to see that happen.
The wall will come later.
so we met last night with as you know Schumer, Pelosi, and a whole group and I think were fairly close but we have to get massive border security
Oh I think hes on board. Yeah Mitch is on board Paul Ryans on board. We all feel - look 92% of the people agree on DACA but what we want is we want very very powerful border security.
Ryan and McConnell agree with us on DACA.
Trump is schlonging his base. He can GFH.
Alright. Here is what I am getting.
DACA may go with a wall and no chain-family.
To start to be work-visas only. (Same since time).
If you prefer Hillary just say so.
Oh. you did.
F Trump. He's a lying ass hole. The hits I took for this clown. F him. Traitor.
I was lied to. You were too, in case you missed it.
Stop being an idiot and step outside of your box.
You tell me the alternative to Gorsuch on the SC.
I need you to run that mouth on the alternative you had.
Go ahead.
In case I missed WHAT?
That Bitch Hillary isn't screeching at me?
Nice for you to show your colors on FR.
Very Rare for a college boy.
