Failed 301 to 121 because members feared it looked like amnesty and might hurt them. Gee, wonder why?

1. The bill sucked.
2. The earlier bill was better but it failed, too.
3. There is no bill in consideration at present, good or bad.
4. The present law sucks, too.

And this is winning? It’s just inconclusive puttering around and getting nothing done. The system is broken and it can’t be fixed or used in its present state.

Didn’t Trump say “No bill until after the election?”

This was just a show bill anyway because it never had a prayer of passing in the Senate even if the House had approved it.

“And this is winning? “

Yes. You don’t know what winning looks like. Go run for office and do better.

Trump has over 2,000 significant wins in the past 18 months.

Pay attention or just shut up.

Depressing?! This was AMNESTY. Why don’t they wise up and pass reform: fund the all, implement eVerify, end catch-and-release, end chain migration, end lottery, implement merit immigration. Put this in a single bill for up/down vote. Be done with this.

Primarily because he saw it wasn’t going to happen. Need to elect a few more conservatives, real ones, to get the bill through.

Though considering a hundred voted against it, I don’t see how you get past that.

This bill was not what Trump asked for.
It did not include funding for the wall or mandate e-verify.
It did not include ending chain migration or the visa lottery.

And this is winning?

This bill would have represented a clear loss. So, yeah, I'll call this one winning, given the alternative.

The present law is fine if the USA followed it.

“What was the point of this one?”

The last bid gasp at the request of the controllers, re: the globalists, Chamber of Commerce, etc.

They thought if something can be mustered in the House, they could convince President Trump to compromise with them and pass it.

He let them dick around and then popped their bubble. It didn’t stop them though. They continued to try to work it with Paul Ryan announcing delays and extensions. Finally, they had to let it go to a vote.

It wasn’t even close. Too many Reps. have the fear of the Trump voters in their eyes now. It’s a new ballgame.
