Fox News host slams the president over immigration.
Fox News host Tucker Carlson has been a staunch defender of President Donald Trump, but that may have changed on Tuesday.
Carlson called it a “weird scene” when Trump met with lawmakers of both parties ...[text shortened]... l, the one he will sign no matter what it says. So what was the point of running for president?”

He's been all over the place on DACA, but has indicated several times that he would support some sort of amnesty for Dreamers:
In the months shortly after his election, Trump voiced sympathy for immigrants who were brought to the U.S. illegally as children, calling it a “very tough situation.”
“We’re going to work something out that’s going to make people happy and proud,” Trump told TIME in an interview in November. “They got brought here at a very young age, they’ve worked here, they’ve gone to school here. Some were good students. Some have wonderful jobs. And they’re in never-never land because they don’t know what’s going to happen.”
Maybe Tucker wasn't paying attention.

Tucker is definitely swimming against the tide:
Today, overwhelming majorities favor granting work permits (86 percent favor vs. 12 percent oppose) and U.S. citizenship (79-19 percent) to illegal immigrants under the age of 30 brought here as children, provided they pass a background check.
The poll finds a record-high 83 percent of voters support setting up a system for all illegal immigrants who are currently working in the country to become legal residents

I'm uninterested in any deal until the border is secure.
It is either that, or they will officially make US citizenship a natural right for anyone wanting to cross the border.
Naturally, you have no problem with that, do you.
Since that is about every single post you ever write in response to one of mine, I bid you adieu.
