I can't wait to see how that strategy works out for the democrats. Are they caucusing in an echo chamber?
They can have their DACA 'free pass' if that's what they truly wanted. Trump is willing to give it up under the same rules that Obama put in place. So what's the problem?
Apparently the problem is that the democrats are going to fight to the bitter end to sustain the flow of illegals across our borders. The uneducated, unhealthy, and unskilled are more important to them than the citizen. It's hard to come to any other conclusion based on their behavior. They haven't even offered up any alternatives or points of negotiation re. Trumps demands.
So it appears that there is a growing faction within the democrat party to shut down the government over the issue, DACA being their 'talking point.' They're leaving themselves wide open to a broadside in retaliation.
What surprises me is that the congressional black caucus is going along with this. Yeah, they hate Trump and think he's a racist. But that's a visceral reaction and not well thought out. Exactly whose jobs are those illegals taking? Unskilled and semi-skilled blue collar work. Precisely the jobs that black american's once had to use to propel the next generation further up the ladder. The latino's are no friends of the american black. They are merely a useful tool in the short term.
Back in the late 60's, early 70's there were a couple of riots in Miami's black communities. The match that lit the flame was police activity, but the big pile of fuel that was piling up to be burned had other causes. Namely the large influx of Cuban refugee's in the early 60's. They slowly took all the jobs that were once done by the black community. Construction, small business, home cleaning services, yard work. The Cubans worked hard and for less money. Once the Cubans reached a certain threshold the blacks that applied for jobs were turned away, "tu no habla Espanol." Considering that the Cubans are for a large part of mixed race it became obvious that cultural background and language trumped (no pun intended) any racial or minority solidarity. So the Cubans worked their ass off and THEIR children went to college.
That very same pattern is repeating itself everywhere the immigrants, legal and illegal, settle in and reach a critical mass. (I readily admit I don't know what that critical mass is, just know it's there.) With regard to this shutdown idea it's only a matter of time before some smart republican snaps to this fact and points it out to the black community and this proposed shutdown represents as good an opportunity as any.
