Trump to propose immigration compromise to end shutdown

WASHINGTON — U.S. President Donald Trump will propose a compromise on immigration in an afternoon speech on Saturday, but not relent on his demand for funding for a U.S.-Mexico border wall, a source familiar with his plan said.

While maintaining his demand for $5.7 billion in wall funding, Trump will also offer backing for legislation to protect young immigrants known as “Dreamers," as well as Temporary Protected Status (TPS) holders, the source said, confirming a report by Axios.

Vice President Mike Pence, White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney and Jared Kushner, the president's son-in-law and a senior White House adviser, have been instrumental in crafting the deal, the source said.

Trump planned to make the announcement in a 3 p.m. EST speech from the White House.

excellent move if true. Trump wants to negotiate to open the government, and is willing to give the Dems bigly.
Will Pelosi the Lemon Sucker face move? no. but it puts her more in the spotlight of obstructing

If true, this is bad for america. Most of these DREAMERS are frauds and were never vetted. How do you vet people using stolen IDs.?

If true, the question will become what he means by "offering backing."

Everyone knows Trump lies, even sold the Senate GOP down the river last month on his legislative promises, so the Democrats are going to demand details on what "offering backing" exactly means. Just him promising ain't changing anything

so Trump's going to cave on DACA?

Pelosi popping those corks baby!!

The data on the dreamers is very impressive.. Most of them are in college and/or have good jobs. They are achievers.

It beats the Dem lies of years gone by of how much they claimed they were in favor of strengthening our border and have now reversed themselves completely.

[reagansghost]

Plus any money for the border WILL NOT be spent on a ridiculous fantasy wall.........going to strengthen EXISTING border security just like the Dems proposed months ago

great 'win' Benedict!

oh and enjoy Leavenworth!

you are a drug addled liar

You didn't hear and see all those videos with Pelousy, Schumer and Bama speaking over the past few months doing an about-face on their stance of just a few years ago?

Another Trump/Hannity fabrication

Democrats have always been in favor of addressing the border, still are today, what they are opposed to is Trump's "big, beautiful, tremendous, 30 foot high, reinforced concrete Wall"

Please get your facts straight

Not really, if all Trump is offering is a promise to "back legislation," nothing will change, no one in America other than Trumpkins believes anything Trump promises and for him to commit to just "backing legislation" won't change the public's perception

Pelosi is going to want details before acting on anything

Um-hmm........you didn't watch the speeches either by Bama, Schumer and Pelousy from just a few years ago. LOL

They wanted to strengthen the border which they did and fine employers who hired illegals.. The Republicans blocked that.

Hey Salty! Hope things are well! I have a great compromise for the Democrats. If you want to come in legally and through proper channels, welcome. If you are here illegally or intend to be, get the F^^$ out.
