"they and Trump had "agreed to enshrine the protections of DACA into law quickly, and to work out a package of border security, excluding the wall, that's acceptable to both sides."
When did the Democrats ever hint they wanted a wall ?, Mr.T agreed to their wishes,,,and he gets what he wants, the Republicans aren't giving him any help.
With the 10's of billions needed for Texas and Florida relief, no wall is getting funded thru congress anyway...give it up, no wall. You must have missed the memo where he said "MEXICO" will pay for the wall....

Tax reform and Trumps reaction to Harvey and Irma is going to mean absolutely nothing to Trump's base if he doesn't put some very hard brakes on illegal immigration.
Nobody who voted for Trump voted for compromise on that issue,...and that *was* the issue that got Trump elected.

Trump is betraying his base. I certainly want to deport every single illegal immigrant in this country.

I'd give up daca for tax reform. The republicans will be the ones standing in the way of the wall. If the Dems had both houses and the presidency, do you suppose there would be any compromising going on? Not a fugking chance.

Well, there are no conservatives in the Democrat party anymore, but there are liberals in the Republican party. Vote them out in the primaries. miles
Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.

seems the obvious play is to trade DACA for the wall and do an end around Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell at the same time.
No. As he was leaving for Florida he confirmed that Ryan and McConnell are on board with amnesty. But we already knew that. This is why Bannon left. He knew what was headed our way.

Most here say the Dream Act was "unpopular with most Americans", actually, nationwide it prob'ly runs 50/50, about like the election. Start parading out those who have been here since they were three and the issue could go on forever.
President Trump just defanged the MSM and the Libs on this issue while embarrassing the do- nothing Republicans in Congress. At the same time he has put the Dream Act back before Congress where it belongs, with a deadline.
Already President Trump has had an impact on illegal immigration just by being elected, if he can translate this latest give and take into taking effective action on controlling our Border that would be brilliant. Better yet if his actions light a fire under the GOP.
Time will tell.
JMHO, Birdwatcher Polls indicate that only 15% of voters support sending dreamers home. 58% support citizenship, 18% support legal status. Politically speaking that is a consensus. DACA will be the law of the land.

I smell a big political maneuver none of us can yet see. I'm not worried until Trump actually SIGNS anything. Until then, it's all posturing, virtue signaling and political maneuvering. THIS!

NO WALL, NO SECOND TERM FOR TRUMP.
He's done in 4 years.
This.

Politically speaking that is a consensus. DACA will be the law of the land. If there's anything true in life, it's that a lot of people are wrong, often. That's why we don't have a pure Democracy in this country.
