Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

group of centrist House Democrats, eager to end the shutdown and sick of political posturing, is pressing Speaker Nancy Pelosi to counter President Donald Trump’s immigration proposal with her own potential compromise.

The group, led by Rep. Elaine Luria of Virginia, is asking the California Democrat to offer Trump a vote on his border wall sometime in February if he signs a bill reopening the federal government, according to a draft copy of the letter obtained by POLITICO.


The lawmakers also say the measure should be open to amendment to allow lawmakers to protect Dreamers and those currently in Temporary Protected Status — ensuring that Democrats would be able to put their stamp on any immigration and border security measure.

“We promised our constituents that we would seek bipartisan solutions, and we feel that this proposal would gain bipartisan support and allow a transparent process to evaluate the true needs of border security and provide much-needed reform to our immigration process,” the letter reads.

My girl Nancy has been saying this all along! First open the government and then we will discuss border security! Nothing new here!

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

She can’t make the counter offer public. Going to be same shit. Trump going to say Democrats care about illegal more than them and blame shutdown on Democrats again. Trump is losing voters right now. The longer the shutdown the more power he’s going to lose.

Dare I say he already lost 2020?

New Roller Coaster Memes! Awesome!

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

1) He will not make it to 2020
2) He will be challenged by another Republican
3) If 1+2 does not apply, I do not see him winning Michigan or Pennsylvania next time around. Wisconsin is still a possibility, but very very unlikely. So yeah, he is already toast.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

Nah boy this ain’t it. STAHP.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

Naw no counteroffers. We will not be able to get even a 50/50 deal with that rat Miller in the White House. At this point we can all renew to outlast Chump.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

if(and that's a big if) trump loses in 2020, get ready for the country to shift further to the right than you've ever seen. and not the boogeyman-right a lot of you here are scared of.
it'd just be fuel to the fire, congress would be redder than you've seen in a long time.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

Kamal and all those longshot Dems need to understand what is at stake. We need a good Dem candidate.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

so you wouldn't apply for a deal even if it does pass?
beggars can't be choosers.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

You are a right wing trump boot licker . What do you know? Be gone !

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

I hope this passes so you can apply right away. I hate to see you suffer with DACA as it currently is.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

if you want to see a bootlicker look in the mirror. a self-confessed one too.
i'm just someone who studies and reads about politics a lot and know(more than you) what happens in situations like this.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

I think we would apply if this deal passes, but no way in hell this shit will pass.

Either Trump reopens the gov without any deal or offers citizenship and backs off all the other concessions he is demanding to reopen the government.

Trump is fucked. He has very little leverage now.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

Where is the little chewbaca gif you once posted ? lmfao

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

lmaoooo classic.

well there you go folks, he knows more than all of us. he is God.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

i don't need this shit, i already have my renewal. that post was rhetorical.
if a deal that had GC status passed but miller had a hand in crafting, all of us here would still apply. don't get things twisted.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

No, I'm at a point in my life and career where I need to know for sure what is next. We are all getting older, idk if you have noticed but most of us are not teenagers anymore. I would just finish my two years left and move somewhere else where I can continue my life peacefully. Canada would be my first option.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

why do you always try to misinterpret what i said, nigga my post is there, i don't speak in code. i don't know more than everyone on here, but i do know more than someone like jaylove who only sees politics through a liberal bias.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

everyone got a bias, mayne.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

I will not apply for this. I think it will ban me from adjusting status through marriage. I have a legal entry.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

They'll be a huge pull from the right. Let's hope that the left wakes up and pulls even harder.

The left can easily win with a high overall turnout and a good candidate. They of course couldn't get complacent going into 2022 either.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

Oh shit for sure. Idgaf if it’s Trump that gives us a GC but that’s not happening as long as Miller is a part of his admin.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

sure, but you try to ignore it as much as you can if you want to understand how things work.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

yeah u right but u dont need to say i know more than (jaylove16) and project you’re intellectually superior cause they lean differently than you.

idk mayn, u just seem to have a smug attitude on here. im sure ur a good guy in person.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

GC ,yes. Temporary status like this or similar to this one, no.

Since it's pretty unlikely we get GC and similarly unlikely that Democrats accept a temporary status, we'd best hope for the best for 2020/2022.

For the meantime, let's make the best of DACA.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

All his predictions has been wrong so far. He lives in his own right wing world lol.

Btw, there is no evidence right now pointing to 2020 being a wave election for republicans. So for him to say get ready for a more right wing GOP in charge of congress after the election is silly and without any base.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

i was wrong on just one prediction and that was xmas 17 greencards but i will proudly own that shit. lol

but everything else, im batting near 1.000.

Shumer is speaking right now

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

yeah they can win, but i think the whole country is just going to shift more to the right. not necessarily conservative, but moderates will go more right, independents will go more right, moderate liberals will just become moderates, etc. it won't happen as crazy as it has in europe where everyone in a country becomes right-wing though.

When are we doing a DAP trip to Vegas to see who is better at betting?

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

dude, jaylove has been hostile to me in every single post since i first got here. that's the only response i could possibly give him without getting banned.
the only people i've been "smug" or an ass to where pianos, him, and our resident UWD people.

Re: Centrist Dems urge Pelosi to break shutdown stalemate
 

Bro, nobody knows whats gonna happen 100% but the best way to gauge it is in cycles. (Except in rare instances like Carter/Reagan in 1980, Bush/Clinton in 1990)

2000 Bush and Republicans take power, 2008 Obama and Democrats take power, 2016 Trump and Republicans take Power, 2020 (we will see cause of Trump issues), 2028 Democrats take power, 2032 Republicans take power.

Same shit different toilet mayne..
