re: BREAKING ON Reuters: Trump plan to offer citizenship to 1.8 million illegal immigrants

Watching the reaction to this proposal has been fun. Listened to both sides on Sirius on the way home and they both hate it.

It’s a very moderate proposal. I think laying it out there was good politics by Trump. I just wish we could focus less on the stupid wall and more on employers but the Republicans are bought and paid for.

Would rather my Indian work Buddy get citizenship

how in the frick can any Republican be happy about this? It's worse than the original Obama DACA deal.

Could this be a great move by a master deal maker who knows the people he is dealing with are not really interested in compromising?

Their billionaire leader gets to build a monument to himself on taxpayer dollars. It'll serve as a giant billboard for decades to come.

I’m ok with it as long as we get the Wall, end chain migration, and end lottery system. Those dreamers need to go through some courses though and be thoroughly vetted etc.

Dems don't negotiate. Trump is setting them up to look unreasonable.

Not insulting Trump supporters, I know too many that are good people. My skin crawls when I hear a blue haired liberal call all Trump supporters bigots. I'm insulting the people who make generalizations about illegals' work ethics as if they all share the same characteristics.

He's someone whose single issue is less legal immigration. If he doesn't like this bill I do.

I'm just thinking the number of desperately needed infrastructure projects that could be built with that $25 billion.

Allocate the funds for the wall and find a pathway to back home.
