If it really was only about the wall money, Trump could have countered the offer.

Hehe..<10% of what was asked isn't exactly too much. Dems just trying to have best of both worlds.

Liberals would hate giving in on the wall even if it means we get citizenship. Dreamers don't mean much to them. Most have never known a Dreamer and don't really understand what we're going through. Just think of all the people who have been deported since Trump became president, they are forgotten about within minutes. The same thing will happen to us if the Dream Act doesn't pass.

But the wall? As long as Trump is president, liberals will hate the wall. It's a powerful political tool and the democrats won't wanna give in on it.

This is 100% true. Just recently on the r/DACA subreddit, I encountered a liberal who couldn't care less if all Dreamers were deported as long as the border wall isn't built because that's a win for Trump and because it's bad for the environment. He cited that he wasn't going to be impacted by their departure anyways. Some of these people treat politics like sports.

We need to pressure them to vote NO on the next CR. Call, tweet, email them.USE EVERY TOOL WE HAVE. Let's do the same thing we did with that group that disturbed Pelosi's speech last time.

PLEASE DO YOUR PART!

A lot of Democrats dont want a Dream Act because they wouldnt have anything to offer the hispanic community election year after election year.

Not true. People will be forever grateful to the Dems if Dreamers get legalized. Also, after the Dreamers, there's still CIR, which is the grand prize.

no, it is true.
democrats don't see us(mexicans) as anything more than a tool for votes.
this was already proven by the leaks.
