You mean the bill he just signed that is almost identical to the one Ryan shoved through that Trump promised he would never another one of, that one? For over two years we’ve been hearing this “it’s only for a few months” BS. Meanwhile thousand of illegal Rat voters pour over the border every month. BTW him signing this treasonous POS bill and what hesaid when declared the EO pretty much guaranteed he loses at the SC.

provisions they are very minor and limited and they hype from bitchers is way overblown

So based on the specific directives in this stop gap bill, does the Potus have to build the "centers" for illegals to stay while being processed? Will he have to remove the beds already there, that were not approved specifically by Congress? Does he have to work with the cartels to allow parents to pick up their children brought to the border by cartels?

I know there were a ton of laws Obama just refused to enforce, the Defense of Marriage Act was one of them, DOMA.

insurance and health care are not the same as Govt/president supposed to protect borders and ensure safety of citizens of USofA.

Trump is working hard to lose his grip over his base of supporters by signing this bill and leaving out the necessary provisions to enforce immigration laws.

What’s missing from the bill are the rest of the enforcement provisions from the ONE TIME amnesty of 32 years ago. The list goes like this -
1) the southern border barrier
2) eVerify permanence
3) birthright citizenship per Minor v Happersett (plural citizen parents)
4) end all chain migration
5) end H1b, F1, and visa lottery
6) moratorium on new applications for citizenship for 10 years (40 years to allow assimilation and downsize automated work force).

Anything less is a threat to We the People. No border + no voter id = ?? (if you can’t figure it out you shouldn’t be voting)

If the Dems are so against the wall, then why don’t they come up with a plan to fix the immigration system? The obvious answer is that they are simply against Trump. Period.

We need them to fix the problem. But if the problem is fixed, we don’t need them.

“The obvious answer is that they are simply against Trump. Period.”

Wrong. The Rats are against the wall because it will work. Those are Rat voters pouring across the border. It is not about petty hatred from Trump, that is a secondary motive. It’s all about votes. It’s part of MSM spin. They want the public to think the Rats do want to protect the border but they just hate Trump. Even Rush falls for this BS.

Just a short time ago, those same Dems that are against the wall were calling for a wall. So yeah ... it’s all about opposing Trump.

...I don't trust Judas Roberts for one second. He just voted to stop a state abortion law, voting with the Satanic liberals on the court. He did nothing when Justice Scalia was, I believe, murdered.

Either he has been blackmailed, or bought. Perhaps both.

I keep hearing that speculation, esp blackmail over his adopted children. BUT, does our side not know any investigators? If the speculation is all over the internet, I think our side would be able to track this down and blow it wide open. Especially with the President on our side.

You miss the positive side of this. The limitation on beds gives an excellent reason to require applicants to stay in Mexico until their case is adjudicated, rather than be housed in the USA.

I believe the change of policy was a result of the realization that the border jumpers could be turned into DemonCRAP voters. The success of this voter fraud changed the whole dynamics. I asked my Secretary of State why she can’t track down the citizenship of our electorate. She told me that the Democrats made that action illegal for her to do. This guaranteed the right to vote through motor-voter registration.
