You know he paid himself back out of all that PAC money, yes?

He didn't 'finance' his own campaign as promised.

What's going on with the GOP?

You may wish to register in a Government 101 course at your local community college. You clearly have zero idea how the US government works. Let me help: Trump is not King or a dictator. He's President, with constitutionally limited authority. Hence, he can't always get what he wants. He's not even the King of the Republican party. Do you seriously believe the President has the power to dictate how Congress votes? Wow. Just Wow. You might want to save yourself some embarrassment in the future by doing some research before posting a nonsensical mess.

Trump should have saved himself the very same embarrassment however there are a lot of people buying tickets to his national caravan so he s surely happy about that, and he s got another gem just like him in places where that inconvenient constitution can be paid some hush money.

Let's see where we're at in 2-6 more years.
And that will provide the healthcare he promised how?

where is the secured border ted kennedy SWORE would happen

Quote:
the flood gates were opened in 1965...EVERY amnesty bill was written by ted kennedy....


Quote:
In 1986 Senator Kennedy said, ‘This amnesty will give citizenship to only 1.1 to 1.3 million illegal aliens. We will secure the borders henceforth. We will never again bring forward another amnesty bill like this.’
old liberal ted lied
as usual all liberal can do is lie

Ronald Reagan was opposed to illegal immigration and amnesty. In fact, if you do a little research you will find that stopping illegal immigration was part of the Republican National Committee’s platform back then and Ronald Reagan ran on that platform.

The 1986 Immigration Reform Act that rewarded illegal aliens with amnesty was known as the Simpson-Massoli bill of 1986. When first drafted, the bill was suppose to make it a criminal offense for aliens who were not authorized to work in the United States a federal criminal act and that it would be a federal crime for employers to hire illegal aliens.

Here's what happened, the Democrats in Congress refused to sign on this bill unless the 1.5 million illegal aliens already thought to be in the country illegally and would qualify for amnesty were rewarded amnesty. (reason being, if these illegal’s were to become U.S. citizens, guess what party they would most likely vote for ? )

So the amnesty part was added on to the bill other wise the Democrats wouldn't sign on. And to muffle the out cry, the American people were told that this amnesty was a one time thing and would never be repeated again.

Well the bill passed both houses of Congress and President Reagan signed the bill. In the inner circles of the administration, Ronald Reagan was to have said he may have made a mistake by signing the bill.

Guess what ?, it wasn't 1.5 million illegal aliens who would have qualified for amnesty. It turns out that over 3 million were rewarded with amnesty, mostly because of the fraud that took place during the amnesty process. Phony rent receipts, phony pay check stubs, liberal judges expunging criminal records of illegal aliens!!!

And after the bill became law, you had Teddy Kennedy and the other liberals watered down the enforcement part of the bill that had to do with enforcing and prosecuting employers who hired illegal aliens.



Here is Ted Kennedy commenting on the 1965 immigration bill,Quote:
The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants. It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission.” End of Quote.

In 1994, Ted Kennedy’s Section 245(i) Amnesty gave legal residence and jobs to 578,000 illegal aliens. It was a temporary rolling amnesty primarily for extended family members of immigrants who instead of waiting in line, come on to the country illegally.

In 1997, Ted Kennedy’s extension of the Section 245(i) rolling amnesty was followed by an increasing flow of illegal immigration.

In 1997, Ted Kennedy also won an amnesty for close to one million illegal aliens from Central America. Illegal immigration sped up some more.

In 1998, Ted Kennedy won an amnesty for 125,000 illegal aliens from Haiti.

In 2000, Ted Kennedy got the so-called Late Amnesty, legalizing another 400,000 illegal aliens who claimed that they missed out on Kennedy’s 1986 amnesty.

In 2000, Ted Kennedy also won the LIFE Act Amnesty for an estimated 900,000 illegal aliens. It was another reinstatement of the rolling Section 245(i) amnesty...an estimated 900,000 illegal aliens. Illegal immigration accelerated.





liberals will lie no matter what...….. why do the fasco-socialist liberals continue to coddle criminals???
