Full Title: Dealing with Democrats? Protecting 'Dreamers'? Here in Arizona that's just fine with these Trump supporters

Looks like President Trump has positioned himself in a nice sweet spot..his base is sticking with him and he's appealing to Never Trumpers, moderates and even some Democrats (the small slice that's still sane).

This is something great to watch...all the veteran DC hacks said he wouldn't last...now they'll be standing in line to work with him.

I voted for Trump because he backed policies that I think are best for this country - building the Wall (first and foremost), ending illegal immigration and securing US borders, ending Obamacare and nominating conservatives to the federal judiciary. I heard Trump as a guest for years on the Howard Stern show in the '90s, and I put aside some reservations to vote for him because his stated views were right and he seemed to have the determination to enforce those policies.

I'm not some mindless groupie for any politician, and I'm not going to bend logic into a pretzel to justify any politician who goes back on his word. I'm still going to wait to see what Trump does before I make any final judgments, but I expect him to keep his word. I'm sick and tired of Republican presidents who keep 1% of their promises when in office and then expect to get my vote for re-election because the Democrats would have given us 0% - I went through this with the Bushes.

This Trump supporter is not at all ok with the present situation. But I fully support Trump doing what he has to do to beat down the sell-out pandering do-nothing collusionist hacks in the Republican party. Scorched earth on the self-serving Chamber of Commerce stooges.

We’ve made ‘deals’ about illegals before (Reagan - Bush) - democrats take the parts they like and don’t fund the parts they don’t like... REPUBLICANS MUST STOP BEING PLAYED FOR FOOLS... ENOUGH IS ENOUGH... STOP PAUL RYAN...

HERE’S WHAT ILLEGALS COST US...

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3585376/posts

Here are 14 reasons illegal aliens should vacate America, and I hope they are forwarded over and over again until they are read so many times that the reader gets sick of reading them:

1. $14 billion to $22 billion dollars are spent each year on welfare to illegal aliens (that’s Billion with a ‘B’)

3. $7.5 billion dollars are spent each year on Medicaid for illegal aliens.

4. $12 billion dollars are spent each year on primary and secondary school education for children here illegally and they still cannot speak a word of English!

5. $27 billion dollars are spent each year for education for the American-born children of illegal aliens, known as anchor babies.

6. $3 Million Dollars ‘PER DAY’ is spent to incarcerate illegal aliens. That’s $1.2 Billion a year.

7. 28% percent of all federal prison inmates are illegal aliens.

8. $190 billion dollars are spent each year on illegal aliens for welfare & social services by the American taxpayers.

9. $200 billion dollars per year in suppressed American wages are caused by the illegal aliens.

10. The illegal aliens in the United States have a crime rate that’s two and a half times that of white non-illegal aliens. In particular, their children, are going to make a huge additional crime problem in t he US.

11. During the year 2005, there were 8 to 10 MILLION illegal aliens that crossed our southern border with as many as 19,500 illegal aliens from other terrorist countries. Over 10,000 of those were middle-eastern terrorists. Millions of pounds of drugs, cocaine, meth, heroin, crack, guns, and marijuana crossed into the U.S. from the southern border.

12. The National Policy Institute, estimates that the total cost of mass deportation would be between $206 and $230 billion, or an average cost of between $41 and $46 billion annually over a five year period.

13. In 2006, illegal aliens sent home $65 BILLION in remittances back to their countries of origin, to their families and friends.

14. The dark side of illegal immigration: Nearly one million sex crimes are committed by illegal immigrants in the United States!

Total cost a whopping $538.3 BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR !

This is from the LA Times.

The LA Times is telling us how Trump supporters should think about Amnesty for the “Dreamers.”

Looks like the LA Times perceives a weakness and is trying to divide their conservative opposition. It won’t work. President Trump is now in the process of gaining the vast majority of voters and cooperation from Congress. Anyone who opposes the Republican Party for the remainder of the eight years will lose.

The same goes for anti-American leaders in allied nations with another world war just around the corner. Turn to join us or lose.
