Republican John Thune Complains Trump ‘Not Helpful’ for Migration Talks
Breitbart ^ | 01/19/2024 | NEIL MUNRO

Sen. John Thune (R-SD) and other pro-establishment Republican senators want former President Donald Trump to butt out of their back-room negotiations with pro-migration Democrats.

“It’s not helpful,” Thune, who is the top deputy to Republican leader Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), told CNN. “There are a number of pieces in there that are good, conservative border policies that we’ve been trying to get done for years,” he told reporters.

“There are some folks without question that don’t want to get any solution to a problem because they think that might help the other side,” retiring Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) told CNN. “You think Donald Trump has influence on politics? Yeah,” said Romney, who has consistently supported bills that would allow foreign workers to take jobs and homes that Americans need.

“Talks?” Talks?” What is there to talk about? We have adequate immigration laws. ENFORCE THE LAWS WE HAVE!
(We can adjust little things later . . . like eliminating anchor babies and so-called “birthright citizenship” for starters.)

McConnell, Thune, and Romney? What could go wrong? That is three-way circle jerk.

Trying to get conservative border policies done for a number of years, huh? Well obviously not during the years of 1/20/2017–1/20/2021 when President Trump couldn't get $6 billion to finish the wall from this clymer Thune and his fellow RINOs.

“Thune and his friends are evidence that the term of a U.S. senator needs to be reduced to four years.”

Actually they’re proof that the 17th Amendment needs to be repealed.

How many C19 vaxxes has this low T-clown gotten/ He was quite conservative back on the day. I suppose donners cash roped him in to being a super phony.

But with Thune my guess is too many C19 injections

It sounds like South Dakota is asking for 20 to 50 buses of visitors.

Thune and Romney are above all liars. If they really cared about a “conservative” solution, then they could have supported one well before now. They’re amnesty-pimps.

They are full of crap. If they wanted to take care of it they would take care of it. The truth is that most politicians and bureaucrats are getting paid off by the cartels.

How about we enforce the current laws for a decade before any compromises are even considered?

I saw a post somewhere from a black lady in Chicago, tired of the open border and illegals, speaking to Joe Biden.

I will answer like her cleaned up a little, “Just Fix it mofo.”

Thune is trying to dump this on Trump. GTH Thune ya prissy azz coward.

Close the border! Round up the illegals and bus them back across the border. End migration talks.
