Meanwhile we are taking in a million and a half immigrants per year, most of them vote democrat. In twenty years we will be a third world country at this rate. And all these GOPtards can think about is how to make it happen faster.

The money is flowing in from the Chamber of Amnesty folks.

This perfectly illustrates how much influence they have with the “Corporate Lobbyist” party.

Haste makes waste and usually brings out the stupid in everyone.

Do "moderate republicans" have a death wish? This will kill them in mid-terms. Do they think it will make them popular with liberals? It sure as $hit will anger grass roots conservatives.

The Establishment will be happy to lose GOP seats as long as their power structure is held in place. It has been OUR failure at knocking out RINOs and GOPe types in the Primaries. (Only 2 GOP House incumbents have been bounced in the Primaries so far.)

It is almost impossible for the Senate to go to the Dems, but maybe losing 10-15 seats in the House won't be the worst thing for the nation, as long as it doesn't involve a Dam majority. (At 241-194, the RNC can lose 23 seats and still have a majority.)

“centrist Republicans”

They might as well be Democrats.

Immigration should be limited to successful business people, scientific geniuses, and beautiful women.

Deport illegals immediately.

That is the perfect immigration deal. Those who make our laws should support the rule of law. At the top of that list is to avoid rewarding criminals for their crimes. Deport all illegals. No exceptions. Build the Wall. Let's take care of the American people, including working Americans and those who want to work first.

Here’s the “deal.” Voluntarily leave the country, APPLY FOR CITIZENSHIP LEGALLY and we’ll see what we can do for you. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Lou Dobbs spent most of his show urging the Repubs—just ONE—to have the guts to motion to vacate. His show was great tonight if you can catch the replay at 10 p.m.

I particularly agree with your last point. Lots of GOOD PEOPLE on the South Side of Chicago WANT JOBS, and want out of the drug gang hellholes their neighborhoods have become. Every job an illegal takes is one taken out of good people’s hands.

“Do they ever go and talk to their constituents”

Their problem isn’t talking to their constituents...it’s LISTENING to them!

They bloviate just fine....

Kill it before it starts. Anyone that signs the discharged should be voted out of office.

You are not. Another point is that any bill would have to be approved by the Senate which, given the Blowhards in that body, won’t give them enough time to preen before the CSpan cameras.

Democrats will vote for it because their leadership tells them to do so.

You’re right....

On the first go around Trump spoke to them about what he expected in a DACA/immigration bill. They presented him with a sheet of used toilet paper. He nixed it. I expect him to do the same if the bill doesn’t include wall funding, end of chain migration, end of lottery, merit based legal immigration, etc......
