WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is suggesting that an immigration deal could be tackled in two phases — first by taking care of the so-called Dreamers and border security, then by making comprehensive reforms to the immigration system.

No deals with those attempting to steal the American Dream from our citizens.

NO! NO! NO!

The Rats are NOT to be trusted! They insist on a clean (unbundled) DACA bill with the “promise” that they will address border security, chain migration, visa lottery, etc. later.

Trump just signaled that there can be no DACA without a border wall, leaving OUT an end to chain migration and an end to the visa lottery (keeping chain migration is really what the Rats want).

The Rats will get their clean DACA bill and then will kick the rest of the issues down the road, knowing full well they will NEVER agree to an end of chain migration.

The Rats are trying to play him! Trump, do NOT fall for it!

While I don’t completely Trust Trump based on his past campaign stump speech about sending DACA babies home, I give him credit to atleast let whiny left have their day to speak on the issue.

Wall or no Wall, what we ALL have to remember is we are where we are because both Democrat and Republican Presidents refused to ENFORCE the current Immigration laws.

So even if Nothing happens right now with legislation, Trump is rounding up Criminal Invaders and sending them packing (not as fast as I want-but a hell of a lot better than Jorge Delano Arbusto or Branco Bama)

Fascinating meeting - I hope he does more. Put the lie to his “childishness,” “stupidity,” and “insanity.” He’ll do right by the country although, already, the pantywaists are going to the fainting couches...

25% of the illegal aliens requesting DACA status cannot speak English. 46% more can only speak English a little. That’s 71% that cannot function in a work place environment that conducts it’s business in English. (will these people blend in)

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/jan/3/daca-illegals-cant-speak-english-study/

These people are nearly always described as people who have attended college, and now in the work force, and are great contributors to the United States. That clearly isn’t true.

35% of the illegal aliens requesting DACA status are between the ages of 25 and 36. 31% are aged 21-25.

79.4% of the illegal aliens requesting DACA status are from one nation, Mexico.

If Trump sells out on amnesty, we are going to see many Freepers support the sell out.

Get all the good stuff first and then promise to consider DACA in 800,000 years.

He did not suggest it. He was answering a question by Feinstein.

Yes, there is a certain number of people that have drank the Kool-Aid and think that they must bend over and accept any result. Sad really, we need to instead speak up, shout, make clear the agenda matters, amnesty never or last. Anything less and it is one term for Trump. I don't have any Vaseline and have not intent to bend over and accept, defend, or support a sell out.

We might just as well call this:

The Mexican Poverty Relief and Occupation of the United States Bill

80% of the illegal immigrants requesting DACA status are from Mexico. Only 29% of them can speak good English. 66% of them are the just 21 and over innocent kids.

This is my fear.

We build the wall, and then a Democrat is elected President, and thousands of Hispanics and Antifa Democrats tear down part of the wall in some grand theatrical media ploy like the Berlin wall in 1989.

And then our country will be run over by Mexicans.

I miss the days when Democrats actually wanted to defend our country.

I am holding fire until Trump defines “ border security” to include 100% of the Wall, E verify and an end to chain/lottery. If that is what is in his “clean” bill then Ill be very supportive but if by chance as Rush Limbaugh just says, Trump goes wobbly and grants amnesty, he has just destroyed himself. Its up to him. He is far too clear on the record on these things not to be shredded if he does that to himself and I for one believe he is far too smart to ever even consider that. After that we define “comprehensive immigration reform” which is H1 and all the legal limitations on people with no skills or allegiance to the Constitution and our culture.I think we are fine ere so far but as a base member , I assure you we are watching like hawks.

Yes. That 45 minutes was brilliant. Got dems to agree to security. Then make them look like mirons for making that an issue. He was in complete control. Already has his bill written. Had the last word when he needed to. Makes wolf book look plain stupid. He looked reasonable, in control, the boss, and it will play on news , youtube, fb etc

Any idea why Trump would compromise on DACA?
