GHW Bush was the President that was supposed to implement the border security and interior enforcement parts of that 1986 amnesty.
He decided for us that we were going to become North Mexico.
FOUR Presidents before President Trump refused to secure the border as did Congress.
President Trump was our last hope.
I had hoped he would hold out longer.
There was no reason to do the shutdown otherwise.
It's three weeks of not causing a drag on the economy to negotiate.
Trump will never get credit for anything he does that's good for America. Never. But you can be damned sure he'd be pilloried if thousands missed out on their crab legs because their food stamps ran out. It wouldn't be worth it.
There's a hard deadline to negotiate.
As long as he doesn't offer amnesty, no citizenship, not permanent status, and gets funds for the wall/barrier he's doing his job.
That's what I don't get.
