A few words for you: Clinton would have protected Dreamers

Here in reality counter factuals don't protect anyone from deportation

Neither does screaming at Dems about it. Voting on the other hand... How many shouting about dreamers now voted against dreamer interests in 2016? Not me.

Reality is what it is, relitigating 2016 won't change that. And in reality, most people left of Clinton who vote voted for her anyways. The payback those on the left get from these #VichyDems is betrayal, as is happening right now with #DACA

Shaun too? Because that's my issue with all his whining. He's the one who said Trump and Clinton were the same. Not only was that false, but we are here because he spread that around. Don't talk to me about Dreamers if you stayed home. protest voted etc. Enough BS.

He expressed an opinion during the primaries now his opinion & work is not valid in perpetuity? Go on somewhere.

And that opinion he expressed showed some wrongheadedness that I am surely going to keep in mind when I consider his opinions now because I haven't seen him say "You know, guys, I was wrong about this."

His opinion was that Bernie was a better candidate for the Democrats, he was right, not only because Bernie would push better more progressive policies, but because #BernieWouldHaveWon

For those of us who are in the military, contractors and government employees living paycheck to paycheck yet who are still Democrats, to be honest, we NEEDED them to cave. Republicans don't want the big gov't anyway. They don't care if it fails. We need our jobs.

McConnell has already proven he will dig in for the long haul and won't care who it hurts. Do you really expect us to go without paychecks for weeks or months? Because I have no doubt McConnell WOULD dig in that long.

This is on Republicans now. If you think we can pass DACA without republicans, you are bad at math. We support Democrats and will continue to resist!

this is a short term deal that puts the hot potato back in Paul Ryan’s lap. The hot takes from Shaun are too hot and mostly wrong.

Schumer is savvy. He knows come November that he’ll control the Senate. So does McConnell. I’m not worried.

Meanwhile, let's play politics with the lives of hundreds of thousands of people on the line.

Thank you tRump, GOP & #PresidentMiller HRC would never have ended DACA or CHIP. EVER!!!! Her baby & successors baby. I dont think so. Lessor of two evils often just means NOT EVIL

Neither parties give a damn about poor people. That's a fact.

One party made sure the government could keep running so that the disabled would still receive benefits, poor sick kids would still have insurance, and the military would keep being paid. I think one party definitely cares more than the other.
