I'd also like to see the closing of the birthright citizenship loophole. A simple clarification by congress could do it.

That one I have to disagree with - I think it would take an Amendment.

Don't want to hijack this thread, however...

“He’ll get his wall, and Nancy her own self will Christen it.

He just earned the political capital to ensure future success on every chosen endeavor.”

Dems are forever grateful to Trump for the upcoming DACA deal. They will line up themselves to pass the Wall bill. Dems will reciprocate.

It is not “bipartisanship”, it is the adoption of strictly democratic legislation.

Trump will start now to lose his base big time. Then in a few months, all we will hear about is impending impeachment with Trump having no where to turn for support.

the correction isn't a correction. schumer's spokesman's statement:

The President made clear he would continue pushing the wall, just not as part of this agreement.

Posting ‘related’ is one thing...as it allows folks to combine similar threads, on their own, for their own research/bookmarking.

Reporting as ‘abuse’ is an entirely different matter.

Please stop.

After Trump’s EO The Republicans made it loud and clear that they would pass DACA. I figure Trump is extracting something from the Dems for giving them the credit.
In the meantime he’s trying to help the GOP grow spine and do away with 60 vote threshold if they want to ever get any credit for doing something.

He should have cancelled it immediately. Let Congress vote to extend it or make the “dreamers” US citizens, if they want to commmit suicide. <<<

nope...IMHO...suicide is best committed JUST before you get voted on....

Or was the “Wall”, which clearly will never be built, just pure political swindle all along?

Anyone who believes the wall will not be built is basically retarded. Trump will make it happen with or without Congress. The only question is how hard will the Republicans fight him?

If true, this shows utter disregard, for his most loyal allies.

12-14. If an enemy were insulting me, I could endure it; if a foe were rising against me, I could hide. But it is you, a man like myself, my companion, my close friend, with whom I once enjoyed sweet fellowship

Just watch. This is a deal with the Democrats w/o the wall. Who’s surprised at that? But they don’t hold a majority and can’t pass anything w/o Republican votes. So now the R’s are in a box: either support the Democrat bill or come up with one of their own WITH wall funding, so they have air support from Trump. Given the choice between the two, which do you think Trump will favor /s

This is all gamesmanship. To hell with the pearl-clutchers here who assume everything Trump does is the work of an idiot, they just express their own ignorance and Nevertrump tendencies.

Now watch. Ryan will produce a different DACA bill WITH wall funding. Competition works, and fear is a good motivator, and things like the Luther Strange situation in AL have them quaking in their boots.

It was friggin’ brilliant.

I don't know about that. But I'm giving Trump at least a couple of years before I go all bat crap craze like so many short sighted posters around here.

Art of the Deal,
or,
Art of the Utter, Complete, Disgusting Surrender that Would Make the Vichy French Look Like Jack Bauer.

Trump CANNOT be this stupid; the Democrats HAVE to be lying.

President Trump is being drugged by the generals, so he is compliant.

We WANT this as a stand-alone bill with no Wall or other sweeteners that would give any Republican an excuse to vote for it.

A “naked” bill will have much less chance of passing.

Believe it or not, Trump gave us the best chance of stopping this by separating it from the Wall, giving no one ANY cover.

I think it will narrowly fail. Grassley said it will not pass the Senate. Not sure about that.
