Donald Trump’s Mexico Deal: Democrats Sad, Media Mope
Breitbart ^ | June 8,2019 | Neil Munro

Posted on 06/08/2019 8:37:55 AM PDT by Hojczyk

Most Democrats and pro-migration advocates stayed silent after President Donald Trump announced he had gotten the reluctant Mexican government to agree to keep all migrants in Mexico until their U.S. court hearings.

The “Remain in Mexico” deal allows Mexico to say it did not give in to Trump’s push for a “safe third country” deal. But it gives Trump’s border agencies a legal way to ignore the establishment’s catch and release policies, which allow economic migrants to get U.S. jobs when they merely carry a child across the border and ask for asylum.

Under the deal, migrants who arrive at the border will have to remain in Mexico until their court dates. The means they cannot get into the United States, cannot get U.S. wages, and cannot repay smuggling debts to the cartels.

Trump’s win gives him more leverage in the back-and-forth negotiations with Democrats and business over U.S. economic and immigration policies — and demonstrates the value of his tariff threat amid complaints from Democrats, establishment Republicans, the media, and nearly all of the Washington, DC, establishment.

GOP Sen. Marco Rubio acknowledged Trump’s win and focused attention on the media’s sour reaction:

Rubio scoffed at coverage by Politico, saying, “A good example of how hard it will be for some in media to be fair in covering deal with #Mexico This [Politico] story opens with ‘Trump dropped his unpopular plan to impose tariffs after deal was reached’ as if the tariffs had nothing to do with getting the deal.”

Politico’s headline hid the deal and portrayed Trump as escaping a trap he set for himself:

Trump drops tariff threat on Mexico after migration deal reached

The move avoids a possible confrontation with Congress over the tariffs, which experts have warned could drastically damage the U.S. economy.

When Democrats bring up illegal immigrants bringing children to the border and claiming this or that to get into the U.S. tell them this to win the debate and thus help partially pave the way for Trump to win in 2020:

1.) A significant percentage of the children brought to the border were brought by those who claimed to be their parent(s) but were not.

2.) If they would lie about that what else will they lie about.

3.) How many of these children could have been kidnapped or are potential sex slaves being brought in?

I certainly hope that PDJT is holding the cards close. I would have waited to see some action first. Not mere assurances from from the negotiators. Do I NOT trust them? NOPE!

Haven't heard much about that subject lately. Seems to have been deep-sixed.

That's one of the things the MSM-Democrats do when the facts get really impossible to deny: they invert cause and effect and claim the whole issue was always absurd.

Even though they were screaming bloody murder about it just a few days before.

The RINOS are rejoicing over this agreement...but their base is fuming over their constant objections to anything President Trump wants to do over the border problem!! WE NEED TO REPEXIT!! This is the only way the bastards will truly take their base seriously...AND THAT STUPID BIMBO CHAIRWOMAN related to Romney NEEDS TO BE BOOT!! She is part of the problem!!! The RNC caters to the Rino’s and backstabbers and reject the wishes of the people but they gladly and shamelessly extend their hand outs for more of our $$$$money! No more screw them!

I can’t wait to hear what snarky remark Ann Coulter will have. Even though she’s dead to me.
