In the 2016 election cycle I was a Cruzer. I only became a
Trumpster after he sealed up the GOP nomination for POTUS. Frankly, I
completely enjoyed much of his campaign rhetoric. However, Trump’s reputation
as the great deal maker led me to believe he would not deliver on some or much
of his campaign promises.
Why? Deals require give and take to accomplish most of a
desired goal. This would mean deals will step on some toes on both the Left and
the Right.
The problem I am seeing is too many Conservative toes are
being stepped on largely because the GOP Establishment has blocked the Trump
agenda AND there is an obvious Deep State hand countering President Trump’s
agenda.
The Deep State thing for a Deal Maker is demonstrating
decisions I have a problem with as well. Many of the Trump supporters that
helped him win the election in 2016 have been dealt out of Executive staff jobs
probably under the false hope Deep Staters will comply on some of the goals.
I believe Justin Smith would agree due to this critical
editorial on how President Trump is dealing with DACA illegal immigration
status.

The End of the Line
By Justin O. Smith
Sent 9/24/2017 8:42 AM
President Donald Trump was elected, in part, to halt illegal
immigration and persuade Congress to help him in the endeavor, and although his
recent extirpation of President Obama's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals
(DACA) was a fine and necessary end to an illegitimate and unConstitutional use
of an executive order, President Trump's subsequent meeting and agreement with
Democratic Senators Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, on September 13th, ended in
statements of support to legalize "Dreamers" through legislation.
Trump basically lent his name and a new sense of urgency to a legislative
amnesty, that certainly doesn't put America or Her people first.
America must not take on the added burden and consequences
that will follow any poorly outlined legalization of these DACA recipients.
President Reagan's 1986 amnesty for three million illegal aliens added fifteen
million to our population, and, without specific codified pre-conditions, which
President Trump and the Democrats seem prepared to ignore, 800,000 DACA folks
will add approximately four million new Democratic voters and Republican serfs,
while the promise of border security in the future, similar to the 2013 Gang of
Eight bill, is never realized.
As long as anyone is eligible for amnesty, they will receive
amnesty, so it seems. Nearly twenty years after the 1986 amnesty, the Ninth
Circuit Court was still granting amnesty to thousands of illegal aliens, who
unbelievably claimed they were unfairly denied, because they weren't residing
in America for the first amnesty.
On September 14th, Representative Louie Gohmert (R-TX) stated: "Every time
anybody in Congress or in the administration starts talking about, ... 'a deal
for amnesty for this or to legalize that', then we get a huge surge in people
coming across our southern border".
How can President Trump not see, that if he gives the
Democrats the amnesty they seek now, he will never receive the promised,
although unspecified, border security measures in the future? We've been down
this road before. Is Trump really so politically naive?
No deal on DACA in Congress is better than a bad deal. Let
DACA die in six months, and each DACA recipient can petition the immigration
courts, utilizing existing U.S. law, on a case by case basis. If this upsets a
bunch of future Democratic voters, who shouldn't be here anyway, how is this
America's problem?
Any potential Congressional deal on DACA, that might have
existed, has already been undermined, by Trump's tweet he might
"revisit" his decision, if Congress doesn't legalize DACA. His
suggestion that DACA illegal aliens have nothing to fear also makes a deal less
likely.
Hardcore opponents to any amnesty deal are unlikely to
soften their position, in the face of an army of lawyers for La Raza, who are feverishly
working for continued open borders and a constant flow of illegal aliens into
America, with no end in sight. They understand that racist La Raza advocates seek to
"reconquer" the Southwest and destroy white Christian
America and America's predominant Western European culture. Only a fool aids in
their own destruction.
The Dreamers do not have any standing or right to demand
anything from us, especially something so precious as U.S. citizenship and all
its endowments, or even legalization, and yet, they have made these demands
repeatedly and finally acquired DACA. Emboldened by Trump's sympathy for them,
they are now demanding the legalization of all illegal aliens in America.
During a recent press conference with House Minority Leader
Nancy Pelosi, illegal alien protesters chanted, "All of us or
none of us ... all eleven million". They used the Progressive statistic
and the assertion that only 11 million illegal aliens reside in the U.S.
currently, when the figure is actually much closer to 30 million [Blog Editor:
Pew & U.S. Govt. stick with 11
million; disputed by Daily Signal, former Mexico Ambassador to U.S.
and Cairco.org]; and, the
mere fact they demand legalization, rather than politely request it, is
astounding and exhibits their complete lack of respect for America.
The majority of DACA recipients are no longer children, as
many dishonest politicians would have us believe. They are largely between
twenty and thirty-six years old, and by the time they applied for college or
some security sensitive areas of employment, they certainly were aware of their
illegal alien and "undocumented" status. Whether they have known of
their illegal status for two or twenty years, why have they not corrected their
situation through legal channels over the years?
Some softhearted Americans propose giving legal residence to
Dreamers, who pass tough background investigations, pay any owed back taxes,
complete high school and enroll in college, get a job or join the military.
While this may seem like a good solution, many other Americans see this as a
slap in the face of legal immigrants, who came to America properly, and all
Americans who fought, bled and died in defense of the Constitution and America.
When President Trump said, "We're not looking
at amnesty. We're looking at allowing people to stay here", isn't that a
de facto amnesty?
Trump also enjoys repeatedly talking about the massive,
impenetrable, "big and beautiful" wall he still intends to build,
which gained him monumental support during his campaign. However, he fluctuates
between insisting it will be built and rationalizing why it isn't being built.
How disappointed many have become, as they discover they were cheering for
routine maintenance at the border and more sensors.
It is mind-boggling to witness President Trump prepare to
give away the farm, without getting any concessions from the Democrats, other
than a vague reference to "border security" that will disappear under
the next Democratic president. Legislating DACA without including E-Verify and the RAISE Act is
feckless. Changes to the proposed DACA legislation must ensure that they can't
bring their entire tribe with them, from the miserable Third World hellholes
they abandoned.
When asked if a bill that gives legal status to DACA
recipients could pass without funding for a border wall, Representative Dave
Brat (R-VA) said: "No way. I don't
think DACA is passable with a wall. We would also need to require E-Verify and
end chain migration."
No one will be left to listen to their lies, if President
Trump and today's Republican leadership, along with the Democrats, pass any
type of amnesty for the illegal aliens in DACA, or any others too. They will
have crossed a line of no return, without the support of many of their voters,
who are tired of shouting their demands at the deaf ears of GOP elitists.
Millions of Republicans will no longer offer any loyalty to a party that has
broken one promise after another, and DACA amnesty will be the end of the line.
