Isn’t that something to the effect what Jeb Bush said early on that sort of doomed his campaign?
After hearing POTUS talk it’s clear the meeting for the press was more about addressing Wolff’s accusations.
Nothing of substance was said or done. The people there basically stated a position they’ve always had.
Are you also good with letting their parents, aunts, uncles, cousins stay?
We DO NOT WANT TO CONNECT all the dots for the liberals. Why are people clueless that Mike Pence is the Chief Negotiator behind Trump.
Trump was so generous in his comments during the televised event because he knows MIKE PENCE, Yo, the VP, is the Chief behind the scenes negotiator. Trump KNOWS that PENCE is NOT going to negotiate ANYTHING without the wall.
Again..... Key word-s MIKE PENCE who is Trump's Trump card behind the scene deal maker. We shouldn't need to connect the dots for the opposition, we should remain silent and let Trump negotiate the deal.
Yeb! told us breaking into our country and ignoring ALL of our laws was “an act of love”.
Trump wants a “bill of love” that if it becomes an Act will Make America North Mexico

Mike Pence is less reliable than Trump on this topic.
Pence was part of the den of weasels we call House leadership that has been preventing us from stopping the Cheap Labor Express.
“My computer nearly shorted out from yesterdays FR snowflake meltdown.”
Yep, you’re on target. FR is infested with too many weaklings and hand-wringers.
Some features we'd like--E-verify comes top of mind---are sadly bargaining chips. And now that you mention it, the great negotiator should have publicly included issues like E-verify to set the bar very high, and concede if needed.
I'll settle for the key immigration points for now, in exchange for funds for and construction of the wall. Build the damn wall.
“Perhaps Jim could set up a Snowflake Room Forum. They could post histrionic threads and clutch pearls together.”
Best suggestion I’ve seen all week.
Maybe Trump is pulling an Obama..if you want your dreamers you can keep your dreamers.
Would be funny if Trump would jack them.
Illegal alien Amnesty fans now calling patriots “snowflakes” Pathetic.
New York Donny’s “Bill of Love” blathering was pathetic.
And he’s “negotiating” by stating up front that he will sign “a clean DACA bill” . In other words, a DACA amnesty in exchange...for nothing.
And then in the next sentence, he says he would then do a “comprehensive reform”, IOW, a massive amnesty of millions.
We’ve been had. No amount of wishful spin by Rush or anyone else can hide the stink of this sell out.
Despite his use of some disheartening language yesterday, I still think he is playing the Democrats and not US.
My guess is he does not think that anything will pass and he will be cleared to deport.
I hope.
I prefer to listen to the words coming from the man’s lips instead of trying to invent happy scenarios where the opposite is true.
I would hope for more, but would be satisfied with letting those brought in as “children” remain in exchange for this deal. In this go-round, I caution against expecting for more.

It’s one of those feeling things. And DJT has a good heart.
Letting the so-called Dreamers stay is good optics and not a bad price for the wall/end to chain migration and lottery.
Democrats DO NOT want the wall. Democrats WANT DACA. President Trump put them between a rock and a hard place. If they vote AGAINST the wall, DACA expires and their base will go nuts. If they vote FOR the wall to get DACA, their base will go nuts. It’s an election year, what to do? what to do?
He was simply saying he is open to all ideas, but he will not get an amnesty bill. He can now say he tried but the Dems would not compromise with the illegals.
This is a great example of the kinds of posts that could be shared in the new FR Snowflake Pearl-clutching Backroom.
He did in his own way. He is always a few steps ahead and kinda skipped over the implication that it would include those 3 things otherwise it would be dead on arrival. The dems are not liking the position they are in. If they don't give in to these very reasonable demands to get what they want, a one time allowance for the DACA people to stay and have a path to citizenship but not getting it handed to them, then the dems look like the bad guys to their base.
I think Trump had a talk with the repub leadership spelling out anything he signed had to include his basic demands so don't send him anything without it and putting him in a position to veto it so then he would be the bad guy. Trump is teaching the repubs how to play Kabuki theater; something the dems have been doing for some time now. They don't like being on the receiving end as we can all imagine.
