 Trump denies deal on DACA after conservative backlash

Pelosi and Schumer had said Trump agreed to not demand wall funding as part of a deal for Dreamers.

President Donald Trump and Democratic congressional leaders reached a tentative deal Wednesday night to provide a pathway to citizenship for young immigrants known as “Dreamers” — but the president backed away hours later in the face of a conservative backlash.

After a meeting with Trump at the White House, Democratic leaders Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi said they had come to terms with Trump on a plan that would provide protection for Dreamers in exchange for beefed-up border security — but, notably, no additional funding for a border wall.

The news triggered an outcry from the right, which accused Trump of abandoning his tough-on-immigration campaign stance. And by Thursday morning, Trump denied that an agreement had been struck.

I have always thought he tends to say what he thinks will get him what he wants.  Since he has no true conservative principles, he has no issue in which his 1st response is "we are not going there".

Somewhere, there are thousands of contractors that have heard Trump change his mind once the contract has been signed.

And yet, still tweeted that the dreamers are here through no fault of their own, quote, "Does anyone want to throw out good, educated and accomplished young people who have jobs, some serving in the military? Really!"

Will the real Donald J. Trump, please stand up.
