    Durbin, key immigration negotiator, calls Trump’s comments about MS-13 “inflammatory” and says Trump is “conflating” Dreamers with gang members. He says his comments that Americans are dreamers too were “not helpful” to negotiations, via @tedbarrettcnn

        White supremacists applauded his "americans are dreamers" shit. I was born here. I have citizenship by default. I am /not/ a dreamer. Dreamers are non-citizens who were brought here against their will, as children. They work, they go to college, they pay taxes, they love it here

        Most people have never even /heard/ of MS-13. The only reason I know of them is because Fox News and their affiliates keep amplifying the bogus talking point that "all illegals are MS-13". Nothing could be further from the truth.

        God I hate the term “illegals.” So demeaning. These are human beings who obviously love their country more than Repignicans do.

        They want to come here, and they want to contribute. Friend of mine is a professor; he teaches music to foreign-exchange students. One of his students only has a month left on her visa, and she wants to learn *as much as possible*, because "America is so amazing."

        "Teach her quickly", I said, because eventually, you won't /have/ any more foreign exchange students.

        Yeah, Americans are dreamers too. But let's not fool ourselves into believing clever phrase implies that he actually knows how to lead the country. Tomorrow or day after he will tweet something ludicrous, making us forget the small positives of tonight's speech. @realDonaldTrump

        This guy Little Dicky and his cohorts cry “White Supremacy!” anytime anyone mentions curbing illegal immigration but it’s just so hurtful to say Americans are Dreamers too. OUT. OF. TOUCH!

        That's what most people with even half a brain were thinking when @POTUS said that. The parents were used to make a false point. Sad.
