President Trump unleashed a series of tweets Sunday promising “No More DACA Deal” and threatened to walk away from NAFTA; the North American Free Trade Agreement. He has threatened to quicken the NAFTA deal.
Border Patrol Agents are not allowed to properly do their job at the Border because of ridiculous liberal (Democrat) laws like Catch & Release. Getting more dangerous. “Caravans” coming. Republicans must go to Nuclear Option to pass tough laws NOW. NO MORE DACA DEAL!

He blames Democrats and the Mexican government for an ever-increasing flow of illegal immigrants into the United States.
Shortly after wishing the nation a Happy Easter, President Trump complained that Border Patrol agents are prevented by “liberal” laws in performing their jobs. He also said that Republicans should opt for the “nuclear option” to avoid Democratic opposition in the Senate and implement “tough laws NOW”.
It is believed he was reacting to a segment on immigration from the show “Fox and Friends” which addressed immigrants approaching the U.S.-Mexico border through the north. He referred to it as a “caravan” of immigrants. Before church at Palm Beach on Sunday, he said that “Mexico has got to help us at the border, and a lot of people are coming in because they want to take advantage of DACA”. He has also said “NEED WALL!” and that Mexico was ”doing very little if not NOTHING, at stopping people from flowing into Mexico through their Southern Border, and then into the U.S.” and that Mexican leaders “must stop the big drug and people flows, or I will stop their cash flow, NAFTA”.
He had announced last year that he would end the program but was blocked by the courts. He also said he was open to negotiations with Democrats but has continually backed away from potential deals- his reason being that tough immigration changes are not being included. Several Democrats have refused that they were the cause of negotiations falling through. He also said the Democrats after having “had a great chance” ”blew it”.
