    Hum...it's looking as if Trump and America will get his and our wall.

    Democrats Are Caving To Trump’s Demand For Border Wall

    Colin Kalmbacher January 20th




    Multiple high-ranking congressional Democrats have signaled that their party will give in to President Donald Trump‘s demand to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.

    As the nascent government shutdown forces Democrats outside of their comfort zone, baser instincts are kicking in. The putative opposition party has experienced hours worth of a government shutdown and their biological tendency toward reaction is making them realize harsh truths about themselves and the nation’s capital.
    Extra towels aren’t showing up in the congressional gym. The New York TimesIslamophobic deputy Washington, D.C. editor is clutching his pearls and casting a distressed glance Democrats’ way on Twitter. President Trump is using reverse psychology.

    All of this means Democrats are shook. Sure, such occurrences might make the average person shrug with ambivalence–and the fact that DACA is popular while the wall is not popular might also suggest a position of strength–but Democrats exist by virtue of their mastery of collusion.

    The supine position is more natural for members of the Democratic Party anyway, so they’ve apparently decided the congressional gym cannot run out of towels any longer.
    Just this morning, U.S. Representative Luis Gutierrez (D-IL), a leading voice for the party on immigration policies, was quoted by CNN‘s Senior Congressional Reporter Deirdre Walsh as saying:

    It’s not about a wall. We’ll build him a wall. Tell us how high you want it. But free the dreamers.


    Earlier it was reported that Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer(D-NY) thoroughly caved to many of Trump’s demands during a backroom tete-a-tete between the two New Yorkers–and even offered some tantalizing proposals to Trump apropos of nothing to do with immigration.

    Many hoped reports of Schumer’s knee-bending were false. But, as if on cue, the man who represents the collective wishes of Senate Democrats rushed in to confirm his party’s commitment to nothing-in-particular-so-long-as-something-gets-done. Schumer noted:

    We went to the meeting and had a long and productive discussion. I told the president we Democrats were willing to fund the military at the highest levels in history–far above even his budget request. I reluctantly put his wall request for the southern border on the table. It was his request. We left the meeting having agreed to try for a short term CR that would keep everyone at the negotiating table for a few more days.


    Aside from a reversal of fairly recent rhetoric, the construction of a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border is nothing new for congressional Democrats or for the Democratic Party in general.

    In 2006, the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate voted overwhelmingly in favor of the Secure Fence Act–which called for a 700-mile border wall between the U.S. and Mexico. Many prominent Democrats voted for that border wall bill–including the party’s two most recent standard-bearers: Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.
    In the Senate, only one Republican, one independent and 18 Democrats voted against the Secure Fence Act.
    Oppositely, the Democratic Party’s newfound affection for undocumented immigrants is now being outed as the political posturing of a new generation of Hashtag Resistance hucksters in a long line of grifts and grafts practiced by the still-Tammany-like majority within the Democratic Party.
    After all, it’s not for nothing that President Obama was known as the Deporter-in-Chief by immigrants rights activists; Obama personally oversaw a ramped-up deportation regime which used the state’s monopoly on violence to remove more human beings from the United States than all of his predecessors–combined.

    Re: Immigration

    So, will the dems throw over a million illegal immigrants to the wolves and allow them to be deported just to appease their left wing base?

    They whined they did not know what Trump would accept, so he laid it out for them. It covers more than the number that originally applied for DACA status under Obama's overreach and even gives them a path to citizenship.

    Seems the issue wasn't the "DACA kids" for the dems after all....it was the issue itself.

    The issue is destroy Trump. If he supported gay marriage, extreme gun control, abortion, and unlimited illegal immigration, they would oppose all of those just to spite him.

    Both of you are so correct. It's about their inbred hatred, votes and $$$/power.

    I was thinking last night...

    Trump did well with Latino vote in Florida. It probably won him that much needed state. As I've said before, those folks want jobs, not handouts.

    Could it be that the liberal socialists democrats now realize they are losing the Latino votes they once thought, like the black vote, was a given? $1M more "Dreamers" than the socialists were asking for, but not good enough? A few billion for a wall is certainly not the reason Chuck You Schumer does not want this to happen. I believe they are afraid these new votes will put Trump and real conservatives over the top.

    They don't want Trump to have a win!! However, Trump has the Dems backed into a corner. No wall...no DACA... Those DACA people will be subject to deportation in March if no deal between Trump and the Dems!!! This problem will be solved .....one way or the other!!

    That's the liberal's/Dems playing card (abortion, welfare, making seniors think the GOP will take away their SS and medicare, Obama Care, ISIS, Iran nuke deal which could kill millions, Clinton's selling our uranium to the Russian's) not Trump.

    Another brain dead Democrat talking point being dutifully regurgitated by Guisslapp, a brainwashed comrade of the left wing Democrat Party.

    So you believe he should not bargain. He should just allow 800K illegals in by changing the constitution? Nothing in return?

    If he believes that these people should be allowed to stay because they were brought in of no fault of their own and this is now their home, then there is nothing to “compromise” on - he agrees with those that say they should stay. So if he does truly feel that way about them, then he is simply using them as pawns to try to score a political win. Shameful.
