The "Art of the deal maker" couldn't convince those five Republicans not to vote no? How embarrassing for Trump!

I hear this reason alot and I dont buy it.
There are plenty workers here. Also there are work Visas for such. And those have even been taken advantage of illegals by staying here past the expiration date.
The USA is so disprescted by these folks. Why would anyone want that type of person here along side them and along side our children?

And if the business' hurt if the illegals go back, well then that is karma for hiring illegals.
That will just leave room in the market for a law abiding business to open up.

He definitely shares a significant amount of the blame. I do agree that he forced DACA into this in a way.

Which is a strange thing to do when 90% of Americans support that issue.

Poll: Nearly 9 in 10 want DACA recipients to stay in US | TheHill


I don't understand the angle there, his party should want DACA, too. Irrespective to discussions around wall funding.

I wish the GOP would just denounce DACA and let the FBI, IRS and Border Patrol do it's job by rounding up every single person who was involved with these kids getting free passes this whole time. Deport the illegals and lock up all of the government bureaucrats who let this go on for so long. Enough is enough.

Yes they do

Wake up some of the libs and Dems. You're being so played by your party. They know they can go off your emotions and play you. Then drop you when not needed. ie: soldiers and family not being paid

Who voted for these polls? I was never asked. Why should I give stock to what The Hill says when they have been nothing but propaganda the whole time? In other words, this poll is a lie.

The answer to both would be ‘no’.
Face it. This is a massive screwup by your party.

You think the poll is 40% off? Polls have statistical margins of error, but let's get real here... Those margins are within a few percent, not tens of percentage points.
