The Senate's top Democrat has withdrawn an offer that would allow President Trump to fulfill a signature campaign pledge: Construction of a wall along the U.S-Mexico border.

There never was any offer. Schumer and the Democrats are against any effective border security. Trump needs to understand that.

They demand immediate, unconditional amnesty for illegals.

Okay. But fair is fair. Now the president is justified in taking back the things he offered.

Any deal that results in no DACA and the deportation of every one of them would be a good deal, even without the wall.

Chuckie’s caught between the moonbat base and a whole slew of incumbent Senators in reddish states where the electorate at large wants secure borders.

There was no offer.

Trump will not cave.

Linda and his Little Dick are going to get rolled again.

...and it is going to be worse than yesterday.

There will be wall funding, an end to chain migration and the lottery program.

Trump may bend on DACA with a delayed voting exception so that by the time they can vote their love for Trump’s America will have kicked in.

Plus Trump will continue to deport deport deport.

There will never be amnesty under Trump.

Good! It was a horrific self-defeating deal to begin with and we’ll be much better off with the wall and NO amnesty deal for illegal dreamers. Even if it takes another election to pull in more Republicans to vote it in.

Build the wall, enforce the law, deport them all!!
