Is there any consensus how this DACA/immigration standoff ends?

I predicted the results of the last few major policy initiatives (healthcare would largely stay the same as Trump/GOP had no plan) and tax cuts would happen (because it's the issue the GOP is most unified on)

Not really sure how this ends up going though. And I could be wrong but I feel like if Trump caves on DACA/amnesty that may be the 1 issue his base won't let slide.

I dunno. Maybe to shut down the masses of demonstrators who'll eventually come out trying to save our democracy?

The building is absolutely garbage, full of tiny cardboard box ugly condos that pretend but fail to be classy.

Plus the Trump name is mud even here, so this won't be helping them.
Trump blindly licenses his name and doesn't give a **** about the quality of the apartments and hotels.

I'd like to think that the GOP and his administration wear him down and sign a favorable deal for dreamers. However, I don't think it'll happen. The reality is that Trump doesn't give a **** about dreamers and is only using them as a bargaining chip for the wall. If anything, dreamers getting kicked out would be a boom for him. All he'll do is blame it on the Democrats and anything that says otherwise will sweep the fake news awards (wtf?). In the end, it's win-win. Either he gets the wall and fulfills his promise or immigrants get booted out. His approval rating goes up in either case.

Rapid flow of drugs. This man is absolutely insane. He still thinks a wall will work.

It's the one thing he actually has detailed ideas about. The details are complete delusions though.

Amnesty for all. It's amazing what this moron believes. He's basically every old white racist **** you know times 10,000.

Rapidly rebuilding implies that it was damaged or losing men/equipment.

Makes no sense.

For war with North Korea of course.

Doesn't matter that America's military budget is larger than China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, India, France, UK, Japan, and Germany combined. We clearly need more!

And Eric Trump seems like he was deprived of oxygen for an extended period. Maybe there is a connection here.

That DOJ Tweet:

DOJ, DHS REPORT: THREE OUT OF FOUR INDIVIDUALS CONVICTED OF INTERNATIONAL TERRORISM AND TERRORISM-RELATED OFFENSES WERE FOREIGN-BORN
75% of people convicted of international terrorism being foreign-born seems low and not ALLCAPS news.

White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said claims that President Donald Trump is racist are “outrageous,” citing his success as a public figure and star turn on television as a host on NBC’s reality show “The Apprentice.”

“Frankly, if the critics of the president were who he said he was, why did NBC give him a show for a decade on TV,” Sanders said Tuesday.

“Why did they want to be with him for years and years in various activities whether it was events, fundraisers and other things?” Sanders said. “It’s just an outrageous and ludicrous excuse.”
That's a good question. Though Sanders is relying on the assumption that you can't be racist and have a TV show. Also you're not handling immigration as NBC talent even if you are racist

By not classifying domestic terrorism acts as terrorism, you get stats like that tweet

The Vegas shooting, Orlando nightclub, aurora, etc etc are not “terrorism” by their definition...only acts committed by brown/black people can be considered terrorism

It's obviously true that when they get to work, it's just straight up racism all day, sure, conceded.

i’m honestly surprised that 1/4 of all INTERNATIONAL TERRORISTS were born in the usa. seems really really way higher than it ought to be when you compare the international population to the population of usa

looks like Bannon is about to get got by Mueller. Sounds like a Grand Jury subpoena.

This has to be the most implausible "actually it's not racist" cover ever. Yes tell me about how Donald Trump, born multi millionaire in New York City, the largest urban area in the world, would randomly use a phrase talking about outdoor plumbing.

402 of 549 were foreign born according to the study attached to the tweet.

another way to say that same statistic would be

295 OUT OF 549 (1 out of every 2) INDIVIDUALS CONVICTED OF INTERNATIONAL TERRORISM OR TERROR RELATED OFFENSE WERE UNITED STATES CITIZENS!!!!1!!1

I'm anal and others may have different views, but this popehat thread makes the argument that this might be an indication that Bannon is actually a witness here (as opposed to being a 'target' of the investigation):
