“We don’t have a reliable partner at the White House to negotiate with.”

Their was nothing to sign this would have become a bill a some future point had he not told them to stick it. It hadn't been voted on in either the house or the senate let alone both In other words quit being disengenuous.

 

Be quiet, garyd. Trump said he would sign it. End of story.

 

I don't like his position on a lot of things. I favor a strong military but not at the expense of doubling the size of the rest of government to get 2% increase in Military spending and Lindsey would swallow that hook line and sinker if given the opportunity. And again they didn't bring a bill they brought a proposal for a bill and a pretty crappy proposal at that.

 

There was nothing to sign.

 

Show me the bill... Show me in black and white where is says there are going to give money for the wall. If that had been there you'd have had you deal. But the Dems have steadfastly refused to do this.

 

It's what Trump has been saying all along. Keep pretending like you have a point though.

Just like you keep pretending that whatever was presented to Trump was good for anyone but Mexican citizens.

 

Well then, here is your grand opportunity to really nail me to the wall with this.

Show us point by point what was in the "bipartisan" agreement presented to the POTUS.

Really get me good here.

Come on, give it your best effort, I'm all out here on this limb.

 

You sound like an expert on this.

Please tell us what it is that Trump objects to.

 

That's what the bill has in it that Trump exploded...

 

The framework for the bill they proposed to Don met the criteria he established. It included unpopular funding for a wall and a popular provision for dealing with the DACA participants all but extremist Repubs favor. He had previously said he would sign a bill based on those provisions.

 

Print the damn bill if you can. And again it wasn't a bill it was a proposal.

 

No need to. The evidence given is truthful and objective.

 

So you haven't seen it either your just going along some lie some one else started?

 

Garyd, no one is accepting your denials. They have no cred.

 

DACA extension and

In an attempt to satisfy conservative requests for border security and Trump's demand for a border wall, the measure would authorize $2.8 billion for border security, including Trump's $1.6 billion request for a border wall. The money would fund a partial construction of a fence along the border, technology and the training and retention of border patrol agents.

Consideration of how to handle the future of the parents of Dreamers was was described as the most difficult part of the negotiations. Conservatives want an end to family-based migration, the agreement won't allow the parents of Dreamers to apply for citizenship. They would, however, be able to stay in the country under a protected status.

And finally, the program would change the diversity visa lottery system as well. Some of the annual 50,000 slots will be used for people in the country who have lost their temporary protected status and some will be used for low immigration countries.

 

I have already stipulated to the fact the final language of the bill had not been written. That is beside the point. The point is if Don agreed to the basic framework, as he said he would if it included the provisions he wanted (which it did), the bill would have been finalized and a vote in Congress would have already taken place.

 

republicans... you control congress, just pass a bill, give it to Trump, he may or may not sign it, but do something

 

Republicans . . . you have the House, the Senate, and the WH.

Do something.

 

employers hiring illegals put them in this position, no jobs, no illegal immigration
make it a felony to knowingly hire illegals and problem goes away

Also, the funding amounts you listed were not the amounts needed to fund the project.

They are GREATER than what Trump asked for

 

I agree, but only if employers cannot be sued for looking into the status of their applicants.

 

Trump said he wanted a bipartisan bill filled with love... he got it... but seems someone really did not want that, he just wanted to act like a good person on tv, in private he was a different person

 

No, it's not. They only agreed to 10% of the funding of the wall.

It does not meet the criteria he established.

 

oh, I want it to be a government system, kinda like gun background checks, only for employment
