Trump to Meet Tuesday With GOP Reps To Talk Amnesty, Wall, Immigration
Breitbart, Jun 16, 2018, Neil Munro

President Donald Trump will meet with House GOP legislators on Tuesday to talk about the two pending amnesty bills in the House, White House officials say.

Trump will likely use the meeting to show legislators that he is willing to take the political gamble of supporting the two bills, both of which combine sweeping changes in immigration laws plus cuts to immigration numbers with an unpopular amnesty.
 
The first bill offers work-permits for 700,000 illegals, and the so-called “moderate” bill offers amnesty to a population at least 1.8 million illegals plus green cards for a few hundred thousand foreign guest-workers

Both bills implement most of Trump’s Four Pillars reform because they are written by the same team of staffers in the House judiciary committee, chaired by Rep. Bob Goodlatte. The bills provide $25 billion for a border wall, closure of several border-wall loopholes, cuts to chain-migration, and end the diversity visa lottery.

Both bills cut immigration by at least two million foreigners over the next decade, even as they also redistribute the freed-up green cards from the excluded migrants to the resident population of illegals and guest-workers.

Even if the House Speaker Paul Ryan pushes either of the bills through the House, the bills cannot get through the Senate without support from 60 Senators

This little nugget finally sounds like some good news.  I'd prefer this issue go directly to the American people during the upcoming midterms.

??  Why do you consider amnesty in any way good news?  If you think after he grants amnesty (and he's already made that announcement in consideration of DACA) that he's going to get $$ for a wall you are dreaming.

There is no saving his administration or the GOP if he grants amnesty.

Happy Father's Day Mr President.

So what do you want?  Amnesty?

[Sighlass]

And one more thing Trump voters will shrug their shoulders about.

So what do you want?  Amnesty?

Yes.
Identify the people here we don't know about. Let people who want to work stay.  Deport the criminals.  Streamline legal immigration to reduce illegal immigration.  Don't separate families seeking asylum.

Yes.  That is what I want.

Send them back to Mexico and they stay together....Oh, or is it that Meh-Hee-Co really is a shithole?

   Should be an interesting week for President 'I'll sign anything' Trump.

[Bigun]

Yes.

Yes.  That is what I want.

No!  Those people can get in line and immigrate the right way!  Allowing them to cut the line is a slap in the face to every single one of the millions who are seeking to do it the right way!

Exactly. There is already a path to citizenship, it's called, "Go to the back of the line, just like everybody else."

Happy Father's Day Mr President.

Doesn't appear to be a father in that photo.  Unless the Border Patrol guy is.
