I live in rural Texas, damn right I’ll vote for my Senator again in 2018. Sure let’s send another Democrat like Alabama. The guy’s running for the Senate. What do expect him to do sick home and cry and moan and keep his mouth shut.

And they're talking 10 to 12 years before they can obtain citizenship....that's a LOT longer than the present requirement. In fact, probably worse than going home and coming back.

But at the same time, they'll be making babies, so there has to be some further stipulation.

They got free healthcare, defined territories and ice....

Free college education in New York. I know a few white citizen kids that would like that deal.

The Dems will try and sabotage any deal anyway.

The deal offered seems to be pretty much what we saw reported earlier. Lou Dobbs is beside himself. My view on Trump is pretty much the same as Dobbs'.

There should be no citizenship for illegal aliens no matter what cute name is given to them.

We need to get organized and contact Trump.

Someone mentioned considering SOME of the “dreamers” for Green Card status, depending on skills, language, etc. But absolutely NO citizenship, path to citizenship, or true amnesty.

Shouldn’t there be no presidency for those who are not natural born citizens? Wasn’t that his dream?

There is no evading that both major parties beckoned them in. Now we have a humanitarian crisis.

Shouldn't there be no citizenship for those that violate immigration law?

This is a stunning reversal of what Trump supporters thought was promised. But we were warned that Trump might be pro-amnesty. Even as he was beginning to run for president, he was still making pro-amnesty statements.

If you’ve got a better plan to build the wall and end 60 years of chain migration I’m all ears. Sorry, we don’t elect a king. POTUS will have to cut a deal at some point to get the wall, etc. It’s that simple.

Trump is twisting Schumer’s nipples with his framework “proposal” because he knows Chuck is on the ropes and can’t accept anything that doesn’t legalize 30 million illegals if he wants to get any sleep..... Trump also asks for $25 billion instead of the original $18 billion for the wall in this document - rubbing it in.

So, you are saying if you got the wall, ended chain migration, ended the diversity visa program, and ended birthright citizenship, ended H1B, reduced the number of legal immigrants allowed per year to 500k, etc... You would be opposed to saying, someone who was brought here as a child, and lived here since without any known infractions, couldn’t get a green card for 20 years, be required to pay his taxes, and obey all laws during that time or be deported, and at the end of that 20 years, provided they obeyed all of that, that they then be eligible for citizenship and not be allowed to sponsor any other relative for immigrations?

Talk about cutting your nose off to spite your face.

exactly see post 97... the moral absolutists are fools.

We have the ability to get beyond anything anyone would have imagined had Trump not won... Hell, NO ONE WAS EVEN WILLING TO TALK ABOUT IMMIGRATION UNTIL HE MADE IT A FOCUS OF HIS CAMPAIGN!

Had any other Republican won, blanket amnesty with no conditions would have already happened!

Trump has the capacity to END 60+ years of horrible immigration policy, and we have some folks screaming no... meaning in the end it will just keep going for another 60 years, because they don’t like a detail.

Short sighted stupidity
