Naw not really.

Senate Democratic Leader Charles Schumer (N.Y.) on Tuesday dismissed a legislative proposal backed by Republican leaders to keep immigrant families together at the border, arguing that President Trump could fix the problem more easily with a “flick” of his pen.

Asked if that meant Democrats would not support a bill backed by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell
(R-Ky.) to keep immigrant families together while seeking asylum on the U.S. border, Schumer said they want to keep the focus on Trump.

Yep, it’s all a ruse. Dems are terrible
People and will use anyone and anything to stay in power. Their followers who lost here are mindless sheep that bleat whatever their master tells them.

Edited for the spelling Nazis who don’t want to discuss the actual issue.

“There are so many obstacles to legislation and when the president can do it with his own pen, it makes no sense,” Schumer told reporters. “Legislation is not the way to go here when it’s so easy for the president to sign it.”


In other words, it's too much trouble for us to our jobs, plus we want any action to be on shaky grounds so we can use it against Trump later on as needed.

This guy is a worthless conman.

Put it up for a vote and let them vote against it or filibuster.

RUSE god damnit. Watching people frick that up lately is as infuriating as watching people constantly abuse "toe the line" (tow the line ) around here.

Which is exactly what MSNBC, CNN, CBS and ABC will do. And you won't hear a word about the fact that Schumer doesn't actually want to help those immigrant families, he just wants to hurt Trump.

Yes, please do...

Scenario #1
Headline: Trump Defies Constitution - Changes Law With Swipe of Pen: Lawsuits to Come
Dems: The President is overreaching and needs to consult Congress on such actions. We make the laws, not Mr Trump

Scenario #2
Headline: Trump Punts on Immigration - Calls on Congress to Change the Law
Dems: The President is shirking his responsibilities; he could simply change the law with a pen and a phone

There is a talking point on whatever he does. GEOTUS knows this and will strike once the chaos is at its frenzied peak. They never learn.

I would feel like Nostradamus if the Democrats were not so easy to predict.

This is the first time he’s spoken the truth.

Trump should do this, make immigrants happy, and take a victory lap all over Chuck & pals.

Put forth a bill, let them filibuster or vote no, then announce in a dramatic and urgent press conference that the filibuster rules must be changed in order to save these children from the evil Democrats in congress.

Then come back and frick them up on all the other legislation on the Republican/Trump agenda.

That would be a beautiful plan but there would be too many senators exposed as Democrats in Republican clothing without the cloture rule.

Seriously , how could any American NOT be worried when the Senate Minority leader , or any other Senator for that matter, is openly advocating for the President to not enforce US law, which is exactly what Schumer and others are saying"

Imagine the outcry if Trump said something like "today I have instructed the Justice Department to not enforce any section of federal civil rights laws?" It's the same thing.....

Liberals are stupid.
