Democrats Dismiss Trump’s Political Concession, Demand More
Breitbart ^ | 19 January 2019 | Neil Munro

Posted on 01/19/2019 2:57:12 PM PST by KC_Lion

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of Calif., center, speaks about her oath of office as she stands next to Senate Minority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer of N.Y., left, and Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., right, following their meeting with President Donald Trump at the White House in Washington, Wednesday, Jan. 9, 2019.

Democrats immediately rejected President Donald Trump’s offer of a work-permit amnesty for one million registered migrants in exchange for 230 miles of new border wall.

The rejection came even though Trump’s offer angered his base by trading a DACA temporary amnesty for a wall.

Also, Trump did not ask for the reform of the many catch-and-release rules which allow the cartels to profitably smuggle hundreds of thousands of poor migrants into the U.S. labor market, welfare rolls, and U.S. K-12 schools.

The speech came after Trump had offered a series of smaller concessions in closed-door negotiations since Christmas.

Democrats quickly dismissed the amnesty offer.

Sen. Chuck Schumer also rejected the compromise, saying, “offering some protections back in exchange for the wall is not a compromise but more hostage taking.

“Prediction: President Trump orders the Border Wall on Super Bowl Sunday in a live, televised broadcast from the Oval Office”

ROFL! That would be waaayyy better than the great commercials!

If the American people trend against Trump in the next polls then what good are they? The people, not the polls.

What do they want, invasions of new tens of thousands of illiterate men in their twenties using their homes’ lawns as bathrooms and deciding on whether to rape some girls or push on to the welfare benefits office?

Millions of dollars will go to the new aliens and their children (all their lives) once they get across the borderless border.

And the banks,DMV,UPS and other phone answers will start in Spanish with “Press 2 if you want English” for the minority in the new Latino version of what used to be the USA.

“Time to shut the border, and declare the emergency..”

Yes, 2 years ago. If it’s not apparent to everyone by now, our fed govt REFUSES to protect the American people and states from invasion. Their primary reason for being.

We all know were this is going and it ain’t good.

Seriously, they actually didn’t listen and per their plan, no matter how demented Pelozi’s statement was well-written, and it wouldn’t have mattered what PDJT said. They have placed their best, and I believe they have underestimated PDJT to their demise.

Make no mistake, PDJT knew they would reject this. He has the upper hand.

He needs to hit them with an even more devastating incentive package.

Illegal aliens may have to leave? Is that a new rule? There should be a law...

And that’s likely what the Democrats are banking on. They know the Senate GOP will eventually cave and force McConnell to act. Which will certainly doom both Trump and the Senate in 2020.

Gubmint workers are usually nothing better than welfare recipients with jobs.

They couldn’t/wouldn’t work anywhere else.

Did he really expect them to do anything other than dig in for the whole enchilada?

If somebody keeps coming pleading to you with ever bigger offerings, why negotiate.

Is this the same guy that wrote the “Art of the deal”?

There will be no “Press 2 for English.” We will be given the option to speak Spanish or else report to the concentration camps.

The democrats think Trump is asking for permission, therefore there is a quick “no”.
