We have a GOP president in the WH after 8 terrible years under Obama. Given the current demographic trends fueled by mass immigration and minority birthrates, Trump could be the last GOP President for a very long time. The Dems have won the popular vote six out of the last seven elections. Obama and Hillary had the three highest vote totals in American history.
Trump has the veto pen. If the GOP controlled Congress wants to pass legislation, they will have to work with Trump or face the prospect of Trump working with Democrats and some Reps to pass his agenda. Some people are more equal than others. We saw that with Obama who used the pen and telephone to run the country by Executive Order.
Why did the GOP-controlled Congress make a fool out of Trump handing him a terrible defeat? Trump did his part by bringing over 120 GOP Congressmen to his office and by holdings several rallies to push the bill. It was a major investment of his reputation and credibility. The ensuing defeat could have been avoided if the GOP had the ability to reach a consensus in private instead of the public food fight that led to this debacle.
Ask Paul Ryan. That was his bill. Trump was unwise to get behind it; if Trump wants to see who made a fool out of him, he can look in the mirror.
If you noticed, during the campaign it was all illegals must go and all of Obama’s illegal executive orders would be repealed. Since then it is only those who have been convicted of other crimes that have to go and DACA is still operating as if it were law and not something Obama dreamed up.
Are you going to be behind amnesty if Trump says so?
