Trump Reaffirms Tough Stance (well sort of) On Immigration After Reports He’s Considering Amnesty

President Trump Addresses Congress

It's important that conservatives call out WITH DISPLEASURE whenever the President has a slip-of-the-tongue or ANY OTHER INDICATION that he's softening on immigration BEFORE IT BECOMES POLICY.

Believe me he and his advisers are listening. HE NEEDS TO KEEP HIS BASE HAPPY and HE KNOWS IT! PREVENTIVE MEDICINE is better than whining about it AFTER-THE-FACT. The story below demonstrates what I mean:

President Donald Trump reaffirmed his commitment to putting Americans first when it comes to immigration reform Tuesday in his address to a joint session of Congress, saying any reform had to begin with that basic principal.

“I believe that real and positive immigration reform is possible, as long as we focus on the following goals: to improve jobs and wages for Americans, to strengthen our nation’s security, and to restore respect for our laws,” he said. “If we are guided by the well-being of American citizens then I believe Republicans and Democrats can work together to achieve an outcome that has eluded our country for decades.”

His words put a damper on dramatic media reports hours ahead of his address that he is open to granting amnesty to wide swaths of illegal immigrants. The New York Times interpreted remarks Trump made a few hours ahead of the address to reporters as a “dramatic shift” away from a tough immigration stance and toward compromise that could include amnesty.
