White House Releases A Statement - Page 9

I do not think anybody with their right minds should be for this bill, which would have made us sign waivers... People are pissed because Democrats lost the leverage. But that is what they always do anyways. They couldn't even pass the Dream Act with 59 democratic senators, where 2 republicans actually voted for it, back in 2010.

You can’t expect changes to the LEGAL immigration system for nothing. The fact that they are not even pushing for the 4 pillars bill in the house should tell you something. |

The other side lost all they had. If the other party loses all leverage for a deal, why would you ever offer them something that is beneficial to them when you can have your cake and eat it too? Dems knew this. If democrats had any decency, they would have swallowed a bad deal to protect 800k lives that were at stake. They didn't care. Keeping the diversity visa among other bullshit stuff was more important than saving real people. Fuck them.

How can you negotiate with people that keep changing their minds? Trump said DACA FIX, WALL, VISA LOTTERY AND CHAIN MIGRATION. The Collins Bills does not... The Grassley bill goes beyond that... E-Verify, Sign a waiver so we can deport you without seeing a court and etc...
The democrats should have stood their grounds and shut the government for good, way back in December so they could not even pass the Tax Reform...
