Late last week, Republicans scheduled a number of different votes on immigration bills. They all failed to meet the necessary 60-vote threshold in the Senate, but the bill that got the least amount of votes was the President's own plan.
Trump offered Democrats to let some illegal aliens stay, but only if they agreed to fully fund the wall, end chain migration, and abolish the visa lottery. Quite simply, in order for Democrats to get what they want, Trump would have to get what he wants (border security).
14 Republicans voted against President Trump's Compromise bill. Only three Democrats voted for it.
Meanwhile, when the Left's total amnesty bill came up for a vote, Establishment Republicans teamed up with the Left to bring the bill to 52 votes (though still not enough to pass).
Now, the GOP leadership is declaring defeat. Since the Left's clean amnesty bill received more support, they believe that is the framework for moving forward.
They are trying to kill President Trump's border security promises!
In response, President Trump delivered a clear message to Congress. If they won't pass his three priorities (border wall and an end to chain migration and the visa lottery), then there is no deal. If there is no deal, then he will allow Obama's amnesty program to permanently expire in the first week of March.
Republicans immediately began to cry foul. NeverTrump Senator Jeff Flake thinks he has the solution: give Democrats even more concessions. His plan gives Democrats even more amnesty and limits Trump's wall funding to just two years. That would allow Democrats to pull the plug entirely if they ever regain control of the House or Senate.
Jeff Flake is retiring at the end of this year. Why? Because he decided to become the NeverTrump mouthpiece and his constituents hate him now. Yet, he is the one now leading the Senate's immigration debate.
Trump is holding the line and calling the Left's bluff. If they don't want to pass immigration reform, then Trump will just start deporting people.
But it is the GOP that is caving. Cowards like Lindsey Graham, Lisa Murkowski, Jeff Flake, and Susan Collins are scrambling to get the votes to keep amnesty alive. Conservatives like Ted Cruz are desperately trying to fight back, but they need your help!
Yesterday, we broke the news that the first GOPer has caved on gun control and declared that Americans will need to give up some of their gun freedoms.
Today, news is breaking that multiple Establishment Republicans are trying to sabotage the President and defiantly put a full amnesty on his desk.
We CANNOT allow this to happen. They are desperately trying to force Trump's hand. If six more Republicans cave, then they have the votes to pass amnesty in the Senate and pressure Trump into accepting it.
This isn't just about amnesty. It is about the future of the country. There is a reason that the left is fighting the border wall with everything they have. They want to keep the border open so they can import more illegal aliens and have another amnesty 10 years down the road.
There is a reason the Left wants to preserve chain migration. If they end up giving amnesty to 1 million illegals, then they would be able to sponsor all of their extended family members and bring them into the US as well.
These demands are non-negotiable. The GOP is starting to move to the left on this. It is up to YOU to put the fear back into them and pull them back!
