We have no idea what he will do on DACA but it is unlikely he will allow it to be rescinded. There goes Immigration Reform. Overhauling the tax system right now seems cruel since people have died and more will die from natural tragedies. How patient are the folks in his base? Does he have a drop-dead date to give them what he promised them before they turn on him?

I think he should not have shared that. But he did. In the 8 years of President Obama's administration I don't recall doing that with either Malia or Sasha, do you? Did Bill Clinton often do it with Chelsea? How about Nixon and his daughters or LBJ and his daughters or Jimmy Carter and his daughter or Harry S. Truman and his daughter? Did none of then want to go with their daddies to listen to speeches on tax reform in various states? less

His base is solid and they're gonna stick with him no matter how LIBERAL he becomes and he could attract some Dems by doing that. Maybe. Republicans and Conservatives won't be too thrilled but so what? Remember they are the ones who elected him. They own him. Whatever iteration of him shows up each day is due to them. Of course his siding with the Dems this one time because he wasn't getting what he wanted from the Republicans may very well be that proverbial one-note Charlie, one-trick pony, one-hit wonder, one-horse town and we may never see it again. On the other hand he might keep doing it to make progress and have things he can point to as having accomplished during his administration. Stay tuned. It could get very interesting! Maybe we the people do have a champion in the White House and he was waiting for the right moment to reveal himself! Wouldn't that be a hoot-and-a-half? :) less

He pointedly mentioned them by name and pointedly didn't mention Republicans although Mitch McConnell did have to sigh it. So this is a new twist on what he has done in the past, things to come or only a blip in time? Comments?

I wonder if Melania is pro DACA too?

Nikki Haley is our current Rep and John Keely is Chief of Staff which means The Donald John would require a replacement. Steve Bannon, Alex Jones, David Duke, Ted Nugent, Jared, Ivanka? Your choice?

Not because we revere him but because of what he did while he was here? Suitable memorial to the man? To be a BT or AT annotation? He would love it. The more he gets his brand on things the better he feels about himself. In perpetuity there would forever be a BT and AT.
