‘Save The Dreamers’: WaPo Implores Democrats To Take Trump’s Wall Deal
Daily Caller ^ | 01/20/2019 | Chris White

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and congressional Democrats are losing one big voice in their opposition to President Donald Trump’s push for a border wall: The Washington Post’s editorial board.


WaPo noted in a Sunday editorial reasons why Pelosi should rebuke the president’s most recent offer to temporarily extend protections for the so-called Dreamers. But the paper eventually explained that taking the deal would ultimately help those who came here through the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

WaPo's title is "Make a deal. Save the dreamers." The article also lists reasons why they should reject the offer.

Don’t panic, the Dems won’t take the deal.

BUT tomorrow is Day 30 of the shutdown, so President Trump can finally start whacking the bloated bureaucracy ... that’ll get the Dems’ attention ...

I guess the WAPO has gotten “instructions” from the RATS on the need for them to help “extricate” them from the big a$$ed hole they’ve dug for themselves. The only thing that might save the RATs here, is if the “independent media” give them cover as they look for a ladder.

Not immediately. But the WaPo editorial board is jumping ship.

Actually, it might be more satisfying for the President to get their goat instead, if you get my meaning.

Are their any laws that are triggered after 30 days shutdowm that force the administration to start laying people off permanently?

Thought at one point I heard something to that effect.

Good, so then the Democrat Party has a civil war on its hands, between the tone-deaf old honkeys "leading" the party and the Latino constituency.

And Dems just happen to be at a point where they can't afford to lose any of their core voters.

Mmmm, Mmmm, Mmmm ....

I susoect that if DJT thought that the Democrats would agree to his proffered deal that he would not have offered it. He knows who anw what he is dealing with.

Pelosi cares only about one thing: herself. And the description ‘thing’ was intentional.

Maybe the dreamers could come in and take over the furloughed fed jobs at a cheaper rate.

I believe Trump is being very deliberate in his choice of words, and to great effect.
