Hello Aaron,

Without comprehensive immigration reform, then no improvement can
be made. It takes both parties to work things out in order to make >LL>changes. Otherwise, we will all be stuck with what we have.

So you're saying that Trump is doing a good thing by passing his
watered-down proposal to Congress?

Piece-meal immigration reform is not comprehensive immigration reform.
Time for the Trump administration to man up and allow for a vote in
both houses so that comprehensive immigration reform can finally be
passed, thus allowing him to sign it into law.

I think so too. If they don't like it, we can change some stuff around, and
try again.

Piece-meal immigration reform is what the Congress has been doing
for decades. The only reason why comprehensive immigration reform
has not been passed is because Republican leadership in the House
refused a vote to be taken. With the Democrats now having the
majority in the House, the onus is on the Republican leadership
in the Senate. But we all know that Senate majority leader Mitch
McConnell will never allow it to come to a vote, now that the
Democrats control the House.

Hello Aaron,

Now we have the president of the united states exchanging love
letters via twitter with various dictators from around the world.

Trump's data plan is less expensive than Obama's planeful of cash plan.

The Trump administration paid $2 million USD for a nearly dead
young man named Otto to be returned to the US. How much did the
Obama administration pay for Americans being held hostage in NK?

I give Obama credit for making "planeful" the standard measurement for
payment to sponsors of terrorism.

The Obama administration imposed sanctions on Russia after it
invaded (and illegally annexed) part of Ukraine. President Trump
has publicly stated he wants to lift those sanctions, without
any concessions from Russia. This is akin to rewarding the aggressor
for having broken international law.

How many "planefuls" has Trump offered in his handout buffet?

Trump has been engaged in a money laundering scheme with the Russians
since before the presidential election. Imagine the horror when the
Congress finally gets hold of those income tax returns. Speaker
Pelosi will have no choice but to initiate impeachment proceedings ...

It's a piece of something. Very disappointing, but it's still better than nothing, for me.

Ilhan Omar doesn't like it either; she said she feels bad for latinos because none of them have any useful skills. I think she'll be pleasantly surprised that many of them will make the grade though.

Constantly running a car on an empty tank is never going to solve
the problem.

Visas for those with skills exist. Not an unlimited number.
And only good for a certain amount of time.

Why wouldn't he?

When the Republicans had a majority in the House, the Senate
majority passed a bill for comprehensive immigration reform by
unanimous consent. The bill was then sent to the House, in
which the House leadership refused to allow a vote to be held.

Now that the Democrats have a majority in the House, the
Senate leadership will never allow a vote to be held if the
House passes a bill for comprehensive immigration reform.

That way, Donald Trump can always blame the Nancy Pelosi
and the Democrats for all his problems, rather than Mitch
McConnell and the Republicans.

That is how the Democrats in Kentucky have done it for years and years, but they still never give up.

Sooner or later the opposition will run out of horsepower
and the horse without horsepower will actually win. Kind of
like what happened at the latest run for the roses.
