    "The agreement would specifically not include Trump's long-sought border wall. It would enshrine protections for the nearly 800,000 immigrants who benefited from a program created by former President Barack Obama that Trump has announced he is ending."

    Illegals deported? Zero.
    Wall built? No.
    Debt increased? Yes.
    Number of deals made with Democrats? Two.

    Winning!

    Can't wait to hear how Trumpies will defend this deal. Well, besides it being Paul Ryan's fault.

    Trump has already given away any bargaining tools he had. Democrats will do whatever they want.

    Ryan won't stop them and Trump will sign whatever democrats send to his desk.

    This is a done deal. Except for crafting the actual legislation, this deal is over. DACA, or some form of it, will be the law of the land and we will get no increased security at the border to keep other children from just streaming across at will.

    It's the prelude to completely open borders.

    Trump will be a one term president for sure.

    The Republican Party has abandoned Trump.

    Trump: "Hello Democrats - can we talk?"

    Will this motivate the Grand Ole Party to get behind the POTUS?

    Probably not.

    Looks like they will probably commit Hari-Kari (oops - racist) than get behind him.

    I knew it! Blame someone else, anyone else, for Trump's flip-flop on DACA and the Wall!

    Trump has abandoned the issues he ran on during the campaign. No one but him to blame for that.

    I'm never usually amazed about Democrat and Media deception. It's gotten worse in this decade, but not particularly surprising.

    I am amazed about how many Christians buy into their deception. We should be a more discerning people.

    1) There is no flip flop on the wall.
    2) Republicans have betrayed Trump and their voters.

    It is clear that President Trump wants DACA enshrined into law, with enhancements to border security. He won't drop using "The Wall" as a metaphor for enhanced border security, but an actual large, physical wall across the entirety of the southern border of the United States will keep being put off to a tomorrow that will never come.

    Trump tweeted today: The WALL, which is already under construction in the form of new renovation of old and existing fences and walls, will continue to be built.

    What Trump said during the campaign: "I will build a great, big beautiful wall on our southern border, and I will make Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words."

    What Trump said today before leaving for Florida: "The wall will come later, we're right now renovating large sections of wall, massive sections, making it brand new," he told reporters before his Florida trip.

    How is renovating old and existing fences the same thing as building a great, big, beautiful wall? That's a flip-flop.

    Yep, blame it on others for Trump's cave on DACA. A path to citizenship for illegals. AMNESTY. This is different than what Hillary would have done....how?

    Predictions predictions predictions. The same guys that thought he'd never run, never do well in the primaries, never survive the Republican establishment, never be able to compete against Hillary, never never actually beat Hillary. Now, just 9 months in, we're making predictions he'll never build the wall.

    I predict these predictions will continue....


    .... and his opponents will continue to be disappointed.

    Here is the list of things Trump was going to introduce into legislation and fight hard to get passed within the first 100 days of his administration. Please name the date whereby you will concede that these things are not going to get done.

    Repeal/replace ObamaCare (Trump is now saying he will "fix it".)
    Build the Wall
    Personal tax cuts
    Corporate tax reform
    Immigration reform (no Amnesty)
    Infrastructure rebuild ($1 trillion, revenue neutral)
    School Choice and Education Opportunity Act (allow you to send kids to any school, ends Common Core.)
    End Offshoring (tariffs on companies that relocate workers)
    Affordable Childcare and Eldercare
    Clean up Corruption in Washington

    Trump's tweet: "No deal was made last night on DACA. Massive border security would have to be agreed to in exchange for consent. Would be subject to vote."

    Notice the absence of the word "Wall" in that tweet. Seems to me Trump is willing to make a deal with Dems legalizing DACA and a path to citizenship (read: Amnesty) for 'border security'. No Wall mentioned.

    Trump, before leaving for Florida: "The wall will come later."

    Master negotiator strikes the art of the deal, again!

    Winning!
