It’s their base. They hate people with brown skin, so they have to appease the racists.
Oh stop with the stupid race card! We have millions of legal immigrants and citizens with brown skin. They aren't the problem! There is nothing racist about wanting our immigration laws respected and enforced either. Illegal alien isn't a race it's unlawful status in our country. Stop the BS!
As an indie who abstained from choosing between 2 crap candidates this last election, and who voted Dem the previous 3 POTUS elections, it is quite obvious who is at fault if we keep the focus on funding the government. The GOP is willing to pass a bill to fund the government. The Dems are holding that process hostage in order to try and get what they want on DACA. DACA has nothing to do with funding the government, but the Dems refuse to fund the government because of DACA. Therefore, it is the Dems fault that the government is shutdown. They may feel they have good reason to use this weapon against the GOP, but nonetheless it is the GOP trying to pass a bill to fund the government and the Dems refusing to cooperate unless they get what they want on an unrelated immigration issue.
Which party’s base wants to throw out Hispanic children?
Hispanic children that are here illegally and any others here illegally, duh. There, glad to correct your spinning of the truth. You people have no shame, do you?
Nope. They're likely ineligible for US Citizenship after knowingly living/working in the US illegally for so long. US immigration law makes no exceptions for DACAs.
Your post simply repeats the same nonsense. They are at the moment working quite legally and are in fact legally in the US. What you Right Wingers are proposing is to make these legal residents illegal. So lets us call it for what it is. An attempt by the right to turn legal residents into illegals.
I personally would have no problem with that. The parents were the criminals, the children were not. They were raised here and culturally, Americans. The only thing that separates them from us is a piece of paper. Send everyone who willfully does not follow are rule of law home. I believe that there are exceptions to every rule and the dreamers are the exception. If you start sending the parents back, how many dreamers will follow voluntarily? How many dreamers have no family left here and don't have family back in Mexico? Should they be sent to what's essentially a foreign country because they had no choice where to live as children? The haters would say so, but I think it's incredibly cruel. End DACA for future children. That could be a deterrent to future illegals, but grandfather the ones that are here.
The democrats are not supporting illegals over Americans. There was a bipartisan deal that Trump said he would sign, but, as usual, he went back on his word to feed an ever shrinking base.
One year to the day that Trump is in office and the government is shut down. Brilliant negotiation skills there. Enjoy.
If it's cruel to do it this time it will be just as cruel to do it in the future.
That means that in the future, any child brought here before age ten will have to be made a citizen too.
The border will be a meaningless line on a map.
Also understand that any inch the Republicans give will become a mile to Democrats.
They are illegal aliens. Deport them back to the countries in which they have citizenship.
I had to laugh at the one you are replying to. You can be and American without being a U.S. citizen? WTH? Is he referring to the American continent? Just because you "feel" American aka a U.S. citizen doesn't make you so. Some of the idiotic remarks in here are truly baffling. I have to wonder if they are really adults or some adolescent using their parent's computer.

your post simply displays your ignorance. There have always been Americans who are not citizens. And the definition is more than broad enough to even accommodate illegal aliens. And that is aside from the fact that all from the Americas can be considered Americans.
What about those born citizens here through no fault of their own ? What reward do they get ?
Surely there must be something in it for them.
The US citizens born here are to be the slaves of the illegal aliens, criminals, lazy bums, drug addicts, and all poor people in the universe.
They are the most disadvantaged group in this country and the world.
