    He DID say a clean DACA bill. And then he clarified by clean it meant funding for the wall, ending chain migration and the lottery and more border security. Now THAT's a clean DACA bill. :banana:

    rofl, only if you are a complete moron when it comes to the definition of the word, "clean."

    But that would make sense for trump.

    You know what he meant, I know what he meant. The ******* media tried baiting him and he "cleared up that matter". I don't think I've laughed that hard in a while. The press was stomping their feet and steaming.
    There is no "clean" DACA bill. It's a turd with no clean end to pick it up with. So it will be dealt with accordingly, quid pro quo. :banana:

    Would deporting them all back to their home countries be clean enough bill for your taste? And if not, be prepared to swallow our definition of clean, which come with a few clean strings attached. Got it? ;)

    Actually, the truly funny part is that HE didn't know what he meant.... until cousin Kevin had to steer uncle Jell-O back to "his position"...

    I saw that press conference and Sarah Sanders did answer. She said that DACA has to be negotiated along with chain migration, the lottery, and border security. In fact she mentioned it more than once. Perhaps your chosen medium censored it.

    Just found this URL about the Shumer/Jell-O meeting on Friday... this sounds about right

    SNIP
    Afternoon: Trump calls Schumer a few hours after their lunchtime sit-down

    Although Trump had said at lunch that a funding extension of a few days was a good idea, he told Schumer he thought there had been a Congressional agreement to extend funding for three weeks. The President told Schumer to work it out with McConnell.

    After his call with Trump, Schumer calls McConnell

    McConnell, according to the source, tells Schumer he needs to work it out with the president.
    ENDSNIP

    D doing most of the work and the R and Jell-O pointing the fingers (assuming index) at each other...

    Bet the private polls told Dems this was not only bad optics but political suicide. Whoever the fool that thought that tying illegal immigration to governmental funding was seriously stupid. Best part is watching the far leftist's heads explode like popcorn in a microwave while giving me some serious entertainment in watching the media trying to paint Shumer's cave in as Trumps fault. This week has been pure comedy gold

    Tying those things to DACA makes sense for the the nation as a whole.

    Dems own this 100% and will take the full blame for it. Supporting illegal aliens over American citizens doesn't sit well with people. Attempting to hold the peoples' government hostage for those who aren't even supposed to be here isn't viewed positively either. Democrat math is pretty f'd up as well, what sort of moron puts over a million government employees on furlough in order to show support for 700,000 people?
