I think the way it works with the RATs and RINOs is they say we agree if we get DACA Amnesty this afternoon when we get back from lunch, and then we will attempt to pass the wall law (already is in statutory form) and subsequently depend on the next budget cycle for incremental wall funding. The Congresscritters will throw up their hands on chain migration because "we don't split up families, ya know" (only when folk are sent to jail or prison) AND besides it is futile since the courts will overthrow any stoppage of chain migration since all immigration decisions now have to be agree to by the Judicial system or they put a stay on it.
Sorry folks that is where we are in 2017 - worse than Reagan's Simpson-Mazolli AMNESTY!!!
Yes, and McConnell KNOWS that transferring power to the RATS would be the result of DACA. McConnell is running scared now - thats the ONLY reason for his sudden speed up of Judicial nominee votes after almost 10 months of the Trump administration.
I think McTurtle is of the same mind frame as Flaky Flake and Juan McStain - they hate Trump and would rather the RATS take over leaving them in the minority where all they have to do is "make deals across the aisle" and complain a lot about the other half of the UNI-PARTY.
