Anyway, yeah I get it, the majority of the users here have DACA and if Trump throws you a bone, you're temped to jump at it and say thank you even if it screws many more immigrants over, but DACA recipients are not and should not be the only concern of Democrats. A lot of US citizens who were born here have parents or siblings who are undocumented and ending "chain migration" would be devastating to them. And unlike you guys who can't vote and are willing to throw them under the bus, they can vote and aren't willing to throw their parents under the bus.

There is a HUUUUGE difference between saying "We are going to deal with the dreamers first and parents are left out this time" vs. "We are going to deal with the dreamers and make sure parents will never gain legal status" which is what is happening too.

Actually, what's being proposed by the White House now is "We're only dealing with DACA recipients who through an arbitrary cut-off date hit the jackpot( by a Democrat mind you), screwing over older and future dreamers, making sure that parents and siblings of all future immigrants will also never gain any status, and as an added bonus, we're going to make enforcement a lot tougher now so not only will they not gain any status, but their lives become even harder". If you want to support that then it's your right, but you don't get to call anybody else a devil without looking in the mirror first.
Amen. A-fuckin'-men.

About time someone called those cuckolds and bugmen out for what they are. Well written.

To tack onto this, Trump was offered the wall in exchange for dreamers, and he rejected the offer. Anyone foolishly hopping for this new "offer" is an idiot who needs to buy my volcano insurance.

We are overdue for a volcano.

Just wanted to add, who ended daca? republicans. Who has continuously stopped DREAM act from passing for over a decade? republicans. Who wants to deport all "illegal immigrants"?republicans.

2003 house speaker


''We are going to listen to the American people, and we are going to get a bill that is right,'' Dennis Hastert - Circa 2006 regarding the senate passed CIR


another house speaker who refused to bring a CIR up for vote and look at this, Mr Hastert happened to be a Republican

The facts are that the Republican Party has been the major obstructionist here, but the facts are that the Democratic Party isn't clean either. For starters, we wouldn't be in this shit hole if Democrats had simply addressed this issue in 2008. Also, we'd probably be considering a Democratic DACA framework instead of a Trump framework if the Democrats had balls and held the line maybe a few more days. The only reason we got DACA was because of the pressure of Dreamers. Obama denied having the executive authority several times.

So, yes. The Republican Party has been the main antagonist, but the Democratic Party has fucked over our community in several ways. Look at the recent shutdown and all of the deportations that occurred under Obama.

Honestly, this isn't about party anymore. You can take both parties and shove them because they are both crap. I just want this fucking issue solved, period. We all knew from the start concessions would have to be made. Every damn item on the GOP list has a moral defect to it, so do we (1) refuse and go back to shadows hoping Trump loses the next election (will be tough after the Democrats showed they are big bitches) , (2) leave, or (3) make concessions. If you want 3, then the question becomes at what point do we move forward? Again, every little damn concession that the GOP wants has a moral defect to it. We can spend hours arguing about each item. But, at what point do we move forward? Or, do we refuse?

For some. #1 will be option because you have an alternative path to stay here and can preach idealism. Good for you; I wish you the best. But, not many of us can afford to do #1
