Iowa's most xenophobic Congressman,Steve King, told CNN that President Trump's downfall will be giving "amnesty" to DACA recipients.
A number of Republicans actually understand that DACA kids are a special lesson of undocumented immigrants, and because they were brought here as kids and are in every way except the paperwork Americans. But that doesn't float with Steve King,for whom "Western Civilization" -- meaning White people -- is threatened by immigration, period.
Rep. King was being interviewed by "CNN's unique Day" host Alisyn Camerota. After expressing his disappointment that Trump's border wall is nowhere to be found, and the conversation turned to DACA. King gave his own version of the history of immigration law since Ronald Reagan held office and opined that Trump needs to respect the "rule of law" first and then work back from that.
Then he made a bold claim with no proof to back it up.
Rep. King said,"We were on the cusp of doing that until the Trump announcement the other day on DACA, and now looks to me like things are going downhill pretty fleet and we better put it back together or the Republicans will be done for in 2018 and 2020."Is he making believe the HOUSE had almost finished negotiating an immigration deal?
