White House: Graham-Durbin immigration bill 'dead on arrival'
By Jordan Fabian - 01/23/18 04:08 PM EST

The White House on Tuesday hardened its position against a bipartisan proposal in the Senate that would shield young immigrants living in the U.S. from deportation.

Press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders gave her strongest indication yet that President Trump would not sign the measure, written by Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), if it reaches his desk.

“It’s totally unacceptable to the president and should be declared dead on arrival,” she told reporters.

So ... we have Dicky Durbin and Limpy Graham; two of the biggest losers on both sides of the fence trying to play superhero.  Got it, and obviously so does Trump.

Someone should knock Dick's crank in the dirt and stomp on it.

When 37.5% of the Gang of Eight sends you a bill on immigration, the fact it sucks is built in.

How could a Durbin-Graham bill be anything but wonderful?

Durbin-Graham bill is far from Bi-partisan. The far left and the Republican left are the same ideological ballpark. When I see a bill authored by Tom Cotton... then I will pay attention.

I'm enjoying watching him stomp on it himself. The past week has been a real joy.
