Donald Trump has placed between a rock and hard place….
His so called ‘deal’ announcement yesterday has called flat on its face….
Democrats said ‘No’ before it even got formally announced…..
They want the government workers back to work and paid….
And will NOT sign off on ANY wall money….
Conservatives from Trump own party that he has trying please in this whole thing do NOT want any deal that offers any relaxing of Trump’s hardline immigration policy…
Hmmmm?
How long can this go on?
How deep a dropping poll numbers can Trump endure?
Democrats are NOT gonna bend on this….
Donald Trump said ‘blame me’…..
He’s getting what he wanted….
Immigration hardliners on Saturday afternoon blasted President Donald Trump’s proposed deal to end the government shutdown, attacking his offer of temporary protection for some undocumented immigrants in exchange for border wall funding.
Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) tweeted: “A Big Beautiful Concrete Border Wall will be a monument to the Rule of Law, the sovereignty of the USA, & @realDonaldTrump. If DACA Amnesty is traded for $5.7 billion(1/5 of a wall), wouldn’t be enough illegals left in America to trade for the remaining 4/5. NO AMNESTY 4 a wall!”
“100 miles of border wall in exchange for amnestying millions of illegals. So if we grant citizenship to a BILLION foreigners, maybe we can finally get a full border wall,” tweetedconservative media commentator Ann Coulter, who has repeatedly antagonized the president for failing to erect a barrier along the U.S.-Mexico border during his two years in office.
“Trump proposes amnesty. We voted for Trump and got Jeb!” Coulter added, referring to Trump’s 2016 GOP primary rival, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, who has previously criticized the president’s immigration rhetoric….
Note….
Getting this settled is gonna take some political hurt by Trump….
He’s trying top get around it….
But it won’t work…
He’s supposed to the President of an entire country…
Not a few rightwing talking heads….
Update….
Trump tries to ramble back to please his rightwingnuts….
(This IS the problem…Trump reads something on line or see’s something on Fox news and THAT is how he reacts…Democrats can’t trust him and neither can Republican lawmakers!)
President Trump said in a Sunday morning tweet that there will be “no big push” to remove anyone who is in the country illegally, but indicated Democrats should “be careful” in criticizing his offer to Congress to re-open the government.
Driving the news: Trump proposed Saturday a 3-year extension of protections for DACA recipients and Temporary Protected Status (TPS) holders in exchange for $5.7 billion in border funding. Democrats have already pushed back on President Trump’s offer.

Journalism is DEAD. The circus clowns who ran with the fake Buzzfeed story today are nothing more than hatchet men for the DNC.
As always, TRUMP WAS PROVEN RIGHT.

Don’t forget, we are building and renovating big sections of Wall right now. Moving quickly, and will cost far less than previous politicians thought possible. Building, after all, is what I do best, even when money is not readily available!

Wow, just heard that my poll numbers with Hispanics has gone up 19%, to 50%. That is because they know the Border issue better than anyone, and they want Security, which can only be gotten with a Wall.

Nancy, I am still thinking about the State of the Union speech, there are so many options – including doing it as per your written offer (made during the Shutdown, security is no problem), and my written acceptance. While a contract is a contract, I’ll get back to you soon!

Nancy Pelosi has behaved so irrationally & has gone so far to the left that she has now officially become a Radical Democrat. She is so petrified of the “lefties” in her party that she has lost control…And by the way, clean up the streets in San Francisco, they are disgusting!

No, Amnesty is not a part of my offer. It is a 3 year extension of DACA. Amnesty will be used only on a much bigger deal, whether on immigration or something else. Likewise there will be no big push to remove the 11,000,000 plus people who are here illegally-but be careful Nancy!

Nancy Pelosi and some of the Democrats turned down my offer yesterday before I even got up to speak. They don’t see crime & drugs, they only see 2020 – which they are not going to win. Best economy! They should do the right thing for the Country & allow people to go back to work.

Be careful and try staying in your house. Large parts of the Country are suffering from tremendous amounts of snow and near record setting cold. Amazing how big this system is. Wouldn’t be bad to have a little of that good old fashioned Global Warming right now!

Always heard that as President, “it’s all about the economy!” Well, we have one of the best economies in the history of our Country. Big GDP, lowest unemployment, companies coming back to the U.S. in BIG numbers, great new trade deals happening, & more. But LITTLE media mention!
