Good Grief: Cancelling DACA Would Be “Evil”

Well, leave it up to the Washington Post’s resident wackadoodle “Republican” Jennifer Rubin to go wonkers

Ending DACA would be Trump’s most evil act

Following the law as written is now evil, you guys.

Some in the media take seriously the notion that he is “conflicted” or “wrestling” with the decision, as though Trump were engaged in a great moral debate. That would be a first for Trump, who counts only winners and losers, never bothering with moral principles or democratic norms.

How about the Rule Of Law? Doesn’t that come first?

First, let’s not think Trump — who invites cops to abuse suspects, who thinks ex-sheriff Joe Arpaio was “doing his job” when denying others their constitutional rights and who issued the Muslim ban — cares about the Constitution

Doing away with DACA would, get this, be following the Constitution.

However this turns out, the GOP under Trump has defined itself as the white grievance party — bluntly, a party fueled by concocted white resentment aimed at minorities. Of all the actions Trump has taken, none has been as cruel, thoughtless or divisive as deporting hundreds of thousands of young people who’ve done nothing but go to school, work hard and present themselves to the government.

So, enforcing The Law is sorts of bad things? Good grief.

And, let me throw this out there: why are Whites not allowed to have grievances? Blacks are allowed to air theirs, as are Latinos, Hispanics, Mexicans, Liberals, etc. Not whites, though? Last time I checked, we still had Constitutional rights.

Regardless, with friends like Jen Rubin (and Paul Ryan, Mitt Romney, etc), who needs enemies? And, as Scott Greer notes, all the arguments for DACA put Americans last.

    why are Whites not allowed to have grievances?

    Whites can air all the grievances they want, of course. And whites usually receive pretty good treatment when they complain.

    Is your white person grievance that DACA kids are not being instantly deported?

    What Constitntional rights have white people lost to non-whites?

      Rules and laws that apply equally are racist?

      The rule of law. If the law is not applied equally then all suffer.

        dave,

        Why the emphasis on enforcing the law against the “Dreamers” but not against, for example, tax evaders? Are the Dreamers more harmful to America than tax evasion?

        Do you recommend that we increase our pursuit of all lawbreakers? Should we increase the number of IRS agents and audits to catch the millions who cheat on their taxes? If not, why not?

        For all the excuses that the alt-right-wing makes we understand your motivation. You don’t like brown immigrants. You think they are diluting the racial purity of the white nation you revere.

        Would you be satisfied if Congress passed a bill and tRump signed it into law, exempting the DACA kids from deportation?

    President (2011): “You have people in this country for 20 years, they’ve done a great job, they’ve done wonderfully, they’ve gone to school, they’ve gotten good marks, they’re productive — now we’re supposed to send them out of the country? I don’t believe in that.”

    @Jeffery

    Four years ago Donald Trump was a Democrat. Bernie Sanders was an Independent running for the Democratic nomination. Just think. Had Trump run against whomever the GOP threw up there you would be all about Donald Trump. Because he simply tells people what they want to hear.

    Additionally. He hasnt kicked anyone out. Every legal scholar will tell you that DACA would not stand the courts. It would be deemed unconstitutional. Trump simply kicked the act to Congress and is forcing congress to act but he knows as do we all that this congress will do nothing at all. They all fear for their political lives and once you arrive in DC, well its all over. Every promise you ever made is nothing but Pure evil lies. Thats what Politicians do.

    The Right is doing nothing. I really dont understand why the left is so up in arms over Trump. The GOP has your back @Jeffery. They really do. They are swimming in the swamp with your guys as well. They dont want it drained.

    The GOP is being held hostage by the far right. The democrats are being held hostage by the far left. In the meantime we cant even follow the constitution anymore. As a result the communist infiltrators are winning the war against the USA working from within.

    Remember how I said Hillary changed her tune when she ran? Didnt Donald Trump do the same thing? Doesnt every congressman and Senator promise his constituents the world only to do nothing once they arrive in DC?

    The Obama Derangement syndromes got nothing on the Trump Derangement syndrome.
