This was tougher than ANY interview I’ve seen in any of the msm. They got him on Fast and Furious too. Wonder if his Hispanic bloc is not as cohesive and monolithic as he thinks. Hmmmm.

I don’t remember Republican senators being “unanimously” opposed to amnesty/”immigration reform”.

I don’t remember Republicans in control of anything from 2008 to 2010. I do recall Democrats controlled everything and had a super majority in the Senate.

Juan McCain would dispute his claim.

Tis a damned shame the Latin media has a far bigger set of brass ones than our politically correct, left leaning white media.

Great Leader does no wrong. Of course he did not not keep his promise. His inability to take any sort of responsibility for anything negative will not leave a good impession. The debates should be interesting.
