Axios: Trump Will Veto Democrats' Amnesty Bills
breitbart.com ^ | 14 Feb 2018

Posted on 02/14/2018 12:14:27 AM PST by Helicondelta

The President will veto the Senate Democrats’ draft amnesty bills, a White House official told Axios.com.

The site reported late on February 13:

A senior administration official said Tuesday night that President Trump “will veto any bill that doesn’t advance his common-sense immigration reforms” — a hardening of the White House bargaining position as the Senate begins an epic debate …

In discussing the White House’s strategic thinking, the administration official asserted confidence on immigration, saying Democrats who resist Trump’s approach will “be walking into a political suicide march.”

Our President TRUMP is leading an ass to water...if the ass doesn’t learn to drink, the foolish beast will surely drown.

Confucius says it takes many hard blows to train these creatures. They are extremely slow learners.

Stay firm, Mr. President. Continue to MAGA.

In discussing the White House’s strategic thinking, the administration official asserted confidence on immigration, saying Democrats who resist Trump’s approach will “be walking into a political suicide march.”

The administration official said: “The White House has claimed the mainstream, middle ground on immigration.”

The veto threat, however, prompted a scornful response from an unnamed Democrat staffer, who said:
“We have claimed the middle ground, and the President has rejected it … He’s using Dreamers as leverage to achieve immigration policies that are broadly unpopular.”

=================

Those "unpopular immigration policies" beat the cheating, lying, administration flunky, media goddess, hollywould shill, lover of evil cankles deville.

The ‘RAT Amnesty bills, if they get through the Senate, will never be approved by the House (so House Atreides prays).

Axios is Comcast
NBC is Comcast
MSNBC is Comcast

Be sure to keep bitching about the vicarious MSM.

What veto?

There is nothing to veto since their draft can never make it out of committee or get to reconciliation, etc...

They are the moronity....

Exactly. This will never make it to his desk, but the fake news is so intent on casting this in a manner which they believe is negative for trump - that he will affirmatively veto (I.e stick his middle finger into the DACA faces). They aren’t a news agency, but propaganda arms of the dnc.

How will a Senate Democrat bill ever get to the White House? It has to pass the House before Trump ever is faced with a choice.

FAKE NEWS here.

I hope this “immigration” bill never gets passed and to the desk of Trump. When it fails he can say that now I have to enforce the laws on the books. Which is what needs to be done anyway.

Exactly why should the donkey amnesty bills ever reach the president’s desk? The left dreams of the power while the right cowers in the corner.

I remember the old T-shirts:

IF I can’t dazzle you with my brilliance....

I will baffle you with my bullshit.

So far, the Dems are not able to do either with Trump.

I sure don’t know who the Dems are polling on this issue-—but it certainly isn’t the LEGAL voters who live in the large Western & South Western areas.

We live every day with the invasion of the illegals & the theft of our taxes by them facilitated by the Dems like the California legislature & Governor’s offices.

When YOU do not live with these invaders, you have no idea about what they are doing to the schools, judicial system, insurance premiums, etc.

Nevada Legislature gave illegals driver’s licenses a couple of years ago. My monthly vehicle insurance went from $80 a month to $131.66 currently. Last accident I had was Oct 1966 & last ticket was over 15 years ago. The impact of the ‘legal drivers’ who are truly illegals is hurting everyone’s insurance premiums all across the USA. When I questioned my agent about the raise-—his ONLY answer was “Illegals were given driver’s licenses”.

I heard Comcast is looking to merge or acquire 21st Century Fox.

If they succeed, there goes our only major access to television viewers. American One Network will be our only support just by being unbiased.

I hope and pray that Comcast Communism is not going to succeed.

Even an ass has to drink sometime. There’s plenty of room for compromise on chain migration. Let them push for grandma and grampa to be included, and all those relatives not included, among them grandma and grandpa’s other kids and grandkids, can apply on their own merits, if any, and the Dems can declare victory while surrendering.

Congress should start by passing a standalone end to chain migration.
