72% of Americans want this DACA issue to be settled ASAP.

And Trump is sprinting to the head of the parade, hoping people won't notice that he once claimed they were rapists and drug dealers.

Now, he's saying they get deported unless we agree to finance the wall he said Mexico was going to pay for.

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump pressed for action on immigration Thursday, saying the country's system has failed Americans and pressing for his wall on the southern border.


Any legislation to address the residency status of "Dreamers," currently in limbo, "must secure the border with a wall," the president said, flanked by Republican senators who came to the White House for a meeting on immigration.

"We’d love to take care of DACA, but we’re only going to do it under these conditions," he concluded,
Trump: Give me the wall, I'll give you 'Dreamers'

"Hand over the money or the DACA kid gets it." Doesn't sound like "much love" to me. It sounds like he values them only as hostages.

But one thing is certain--Donald Trump did not give up a very successful business, spend a lot of his own money,

It's already paid off. The one thing he's actually won so far, is a tax bill that will give him and his family tens of millions of dollars.

endure the hateful attacks of political opponents and just plain misinformed constituents in order NOT to help Americans whom he felt needed it

Well that' the problem. That money has to be made up somewhere. So over the next few years, most Americans are going to be paying a lot more taxes to pay for that tax cut he got for himself.

As politicians go, that is very uncommon.

Sadly, it isn't. Trump is just less careful about hiding it.

You are speaking of DACA--millions of people who came here with parents. An observation about Mexico, the country, or gang members, or rapists, never was about millions of DACA people or even Latin immigrants overall. Most of the Democrat politicians have no hesitancy in claiming, wrongly, that the president meant other people when in fact he did not do so.

But such is the state of politics these days, especially from the totalitarian Left--say anything, no matter how much that requires reading something that wasn't present into the words, and you'll get away with it thanks to our free speech laws that the same people would take away from everyone else if they ever got control of all branches of the federal government.

Mexican immigrants: “They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

For the ones that live on the border I would say
that just about nailed it.

That's not what Trump said. Doubling down later, he argued that a native-born American judge could not be impartial because (in Trump's value system) "he's a Mexican."

that just about nailed it.

Yep.

Yeah, I almost cry myself. Whatever in Trump’s past decisions has made you convinced that he cares about people ? Can you give few links ?

These sudden moments of love and compassion have enough alligator tears to fill the Pacific Ocean.

How can anyone fall for this ?
He's kept more of his campaign promises than just about any other politician in federal office, on both sides.

Yes, we all know Mexico paid for the wall, troops are back from useless war in Afghanistan, Hillary is in jail and North Korean nuclear problem has been solved because as we know Trump is stable genius.

However the point of this thread was to commemorate his soft and caring values of which there has been little evidence.

Who said anything about "soft and caring values"? That's vague and not any kind of objective standard. You asked for evidence that he cares for people, I pointed out that he is fulfilling more of his campaign promises than just about about any other federal elected politician. What else is an elected politician's job if not to fulfill his campaign promises?

And the president is not God. He can't just snap his fingers and make everything change. Trump can't force Congress to vote for anything, but he can keep the issues fresh in voters minds by talking about it and then come election time we can vote out the problem senators and then things can change.

That would be the M Bob as creator of the thread

Trump has much love for these ones.

And it also appears for all man kind?

So we are looking at this claim and questions remain about how he has shown his love for “those ones” and all mankind earlier in his long life that would support his loving character instead of this appearing as cynical politically motivated statement made for this occasion.

So lovable acts by Trump ? Start linking them , plenty of thread left.

He did not. He mentioned love because of the namename "bill of love" Trump gave the bill, but nothing about "soft and caring values".

Well, don't forget what you find in stables. Besides horses, I mean. Don't forget, he also ended Obamacare, and deported all Muslims. And his voting fraud commission ended all illegal voting. Except for the one member who had illegally voted himself.

The president is proving that he is willing and wanting to work with everyone. Even the non-believers will understand in time.

Bit of show to offset PR damage from the latest imago fiasco that was the new published book.

Wanna bet he will be back to his mouth foaming tweets in no time?
