Trump Denies DACA Deal Reached With Dems

President Trump on Thursday denied that a deal was reached with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi over DACA, or the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.

The two Democratic leaders announced after a dinner meeting with Trump on Wednesday that a deal had been reached.

“We had a very productive meeting at the White House with the President,” they wrote in a joint statement. “The discussion focused on DACA. We agreed to enshrine the protections of DACA into law quickly, and to work out a package of border security, excluding the wall, that’s acceptable to both sides.”

The president took to Twitter early Thursday to explain that wasn’t true.  

“No deal was made last night on DACA. Massive border security would have to be agreed to in exchange for consent. Would be subject to vote,” he wrote.

“The WALL, which is already under construction in the form of new renovation of old and existing fences and walls, will continue to be built,” he added.

He then followed up suggesting he did not want to see Dreamers kicked out of the country.

“Does anybody really want to throw out good, educated and accomplished young people who have jobs, some serving in the military? Really! They have been in our country for many years through no fault of their own - brought in by parents at young age. Plus BIG border security,” he wrote.

There are approximately 800,000 illegal immigrant minors who are currently being protected under the DACA program.

He seems to love liberal press adulation more than he loves our Constitutional system.

” ....and to work out a package of border security....
Demspeak for water stations.”

They always find a way to make lemonaid, don’t they?
A Dem gun-grabber is arrested for carrying a gun into a school.
He’s sentenced to community correction: lectures to school kids about evil guns. (Prolly packing too.)

All these faint-hearted pearl clutchers, afeared President Trump is selling us out? On his signature issue? Tut tut.

They were never on board the Trump train. FR is thick with them lately, as thick as ticks.

You mischaracterize as “NeverTrumpers” anyone who voted against Trump in the primaries and who even mildly criticizes him. Well he won (thank God) and now we, who voted for him in the General, get to HOLD HIM FULLY ACCOUNTABLE FOR HIS PERFORMANCE. Sorry, buddy, but I bought that right.

But did he deny making a debt deal with them? When he rolled daca to congress did he really believe there would be no Amnesty? If he is that incompetent he should step down.

I voted against him in primaries and whether you get to stay on here remains to be seen.

“Does anybody really want to throw out good, educated and accomplished young people who have jobs, some serving in the military? Really!

Does that include the 31-year-olds with knife scars, prison tattoos, mile-long rap sheets, and protective and defaulted child support orders from multiple exes?

He always has. I heard he has a megalomaniacal weakness for wanting to be adored and loved by everyone. He should talk to me. I have nothing but enemies. Hey it ain't all that bad.

Hey Donald, your question's NOT rhetorical. The answer to it is: "Yes. Millions of Americans do". Because the ONLY military that would have accepted these criminals and lowlifes into its ranks in the first place would have been OBAMA's military. You know, the one Kelly and McMaster came from? Where flag officers swore that troops under their command would fire on American citizens if Obama had given the order? How soon we forget.
