Why is it sooooo important to do this thing that polls show the people to be against?
No kidding. Why is this phvck tard spending ALL his time on this?
Big donors - Cheap Labor Express, Chamber of Commerce, Koch brothers - have threatened to withhold campaign money for the midterms unless the GOP caves.
If this is the compromise, this is what Trump was talking about all along. Trump always proposed a 'limited' chance for so called 'Dreamers' to become citizens. It meant many years and staying 'crime free'... and such.
As usual, the devil is in the details.
Because all the RINOs who are retiring are willing to vote with Democrats to force it through, following their Kochsucker paymasters' orders. If they want those cushy lobbying positions after retirement, they better go along.
Of course Trump could CRUSH them like a bug if he told the most senior among them that if they oppose him, he will MAKE SURE their lobbying firm is BLACKLISTED by the entire Executive branch for the remainder of his presidency. NO access. NO influence. DEAD. But he won't do it.
For GOPe swamp creatures its a win win. They get to please their money people and at the same time weaken Trump by disillusioning his most loyal and vocal supporters.
Because the Bush League Republicans just need one more amnesty to complete the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA)
