Why would you deceive about the fact that not NEARLY all republicans in the senate are on board with this?
Alexander, Corker, Flake, Graham, Hatch, Heller, Hoeven, McCain, Murkowsky and Rubio all voted for the Gang of Amnesty bill.
Lots more would have if their votes were needed.
There might be a handful of Senators on the side of the citizens and the rule of law, most of them are on board the Cheap Labor Express.
Srsly. We have a conservative plurality at best, and I suspect not even that much. I’ve been looking at this like a situation where a President has to deal with an opposed Congress, mostly because that’s what it is.
Wish Trump would find a way to end-run around these douches, but I bet that the moment he did, the house would rediscover the ‘power of the purse’ and some liberal judge would interfere too.
Every T has to be crossed and every I dotted in order to make this work, I think. No wiggle room. And we the voters have to put the screws to Congress.
I find it hard to blame President Trump for putting off this battle until he’s gathered more bargaining chips. And in the meantime, WE had better get the hell to work making OUR voices heard.
