I don't see any indication that ANY of the Dem leadership is interested in coming anywhere close to meeting even the "framework" of Trump's plan and I would speculate that Trump knew that from the beginning. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me at all if the specifics within the "framework" would be even less appealing to the Dems. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if the sneaky bastard bumped the number to 1.8 just to f~k with the Dems even more. I think Trump knew that there would be no deal and he got out in front of the issue with a proposal that seems fair to the electorate as a whole, but he knew the Dems could never sign on to. As a result, the Dems are in a vice. They can't hold the budget up, because their focus groups have already told them that's no bueno and they've got their own minority activist groups rattling their cages with March 5th looming. It looks like they have two plays. Continue with their usual RACIST! blather as DACA expires or giving Trump what he wants and, again, I believe that it will be worse for them than the four sentences of the "framework" View Quote Forcing them to cave on this doesn't give him what he wants (unless what he wants is to be able to claim that he made a bad deal). |

How about this approach:
- The DACA young people who are in a professional occupation or in school for same can become a legal permanent resident alien with no voting privileges. The rest get deported. The DACA head count is counted against legal immigration quotas. - Chain immigration is history. - Illegals have 30 days before forced deportation. ICE gets bucks to reward turn-ins of illegals. - E-Verify becomes mandatory or else if they find illegals working there, the company gets shut down completely and the principals get a prison term. - If illegals are found on voting rolls, the official that allowed/put them there gets a prison term. Make Voter-ID is a requirement for all Federal elections. Run stings every election and arrest anyone not complying with the law. The wall gets funded in its entirety. - Funding for actual, proven border security and technology is increased rather than the crony dollars Odumbo used to reward psychophants with. - All Federal monies of any kind are stopped to any state that provides welfare of any kind for illegal immigrants. You have enough money to pay for illegal welfare, then you don't need Federal money then, right? - Reduce the immigration quotas to some sane number. Require any potential immigrant to prove they have a professional skill and certification for same. What else am I missing? |

Quoted: The Dems are so irrational, they are programmed to bitch and scream about anything Trump does. So when Trump actually offered what they asked for and more, they have no idea how to respond.

After the DACA and Dreamers then their parents and siblings (because how can you separate families!!!) there will be court challenges to include people who were close but missed the deadline dates then there will be adult illegals and their spouses and kids back home then there will be the grandparents and cousins and uncles and aunts and neighbors and pretty soon Mexico and Central America will be empty except for the cartels and the politicians taking bribes from them.
800,000 will turn into 100,000,000 before you can say gracias. How's that for a sentence of death for us? |

If we give amnesty, it should be as limited as possible. Assume 10 relatives per newly minted American. That makes maybe double digit MILLION voters, 98%+ will vote Democrat. How close were some races???? the replacement of us with them is the Democrat's plan for permanent power. View Quote |

Increasing the population of a blue state changes electoral and congressional votes. Fuck that. Green card is legal residence, with a potential path to citizenship but without birthright citizenship. Problem is it bypasses the quota system and if it is applied to the quota system screws those waiting on the system.
that said, the current system that encourages illegal immigration and puts those emigrants outside the protection of the law is immoral. We are making a slave population with the current system. Nuking employers is a good start, but something needs to flush the system other than blanket amnesty and permanent residency for those breaking the law |

HJ,
That's a very narrow anecdote, based solely upon your experience. And you bemoan the fact that "conservative news sources" don't see things that you see and report accordingly? If you are here illegally, you should not be rewarded. It sucks to be them, and maybe it's not their fault, but there are plenty of American kids whose dads commit crimes, too. There's no reward for them. |

Trump has done more right in my mind than I would have imagined. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt on this. If he cuts a bad deal, goes against what he promised he's got to know the base is gone.

Quoted: You are one of my favorite posters here, Cincinnatus, but I disagree with you on this one. A path to citizenship is not a reward. Make them earn it.

Analyzed here: http://www.breitbart.com/2018-elections/2018/01/27/trump-draft-amnesty-unlimited-forever/ The Trump amnesty bill requires $25 billion be set aside from 2018 to 2021 for “tactical infrastructure,” which is a code-word for a wall. But the funds can also be used to buy electronics sensors or even aircraft – giving many politicians an huge incentive to convert construction funding into contracts for hometown aircraft and electronics companies.

I think Trump has shown that the Democrats don't really care about the Daca people. He was willing to double what they asked for. What they really want is a full open border. I think he has outmaneuvered them again. I think he'll do to the Democrats what he did to the Palestinians and Jerusalem, that's off the table, we've moved on. He will offer less each deal, which in turn they will still reject because they are used to getting something every deal, while never giving in on anything. Times have changed.

The whole thing is a win win for government and a lose lose for America.
Are the other 50 million illegals getting deported? No? Huh 5 million Democrat voters ? Huh Get rid of anchor babies ? No ? Huh Does the wall get completed before any of the legalizing gets done ? No ? Huh What do conservatives get out of this "compromise" ? Nothing? Huh Do the illegals get cut off from all those sweet bennies I pay for ? No? Huh Where exactly is the compromise? The Repiblicans get to keep the slave labor force in place to keep wages down, that's the benefit for the R party. |
