Trump's price for not totally screwing the dreamers he so absolutely just loves

Trump lists demands on immigration in exchange for DACA

The idea he would sign a clean DACA bill if the congress gave him one was pure baloney.

Apparently, he did agree a while back to sign a DACA bill in return for a modest tightening of border security, but he has now broken his word and gone to a harsher position.

Sure, the real Buchananite position is that any deal for any price is a betrayal and all illegals should be deported.

But this is him trying to do what he can for white nationalism, and his voters if not Breitbart will give him full credit, whether the deal goes through or not.

Pelosi and Schumer have already rejected these demands.

President Donald Trump has told congressional leaders that his hard-line immigration priorities must be enacted in exchange for extending protection from deportation to hundreds of thousands of young immigrants, many of whom were brought to the U.S. illegally as children.

Trump's list of demands included overhauling the country's green-card system, a crackdown on unaccompanied minors entering the country, and building his promised wall along the southern border.

Many were policies Democrats have said explicitly are off the table[.]

. . . .

The White House also said it wants to boost fees at border crossings, hire 10,000 more immigration enforcement officers, make it easier to deport gang members and unaccompanied children, and overhaul the asylum system. 

And it wants new measures to crack down on "sanctuary cities," which don't share information with federal immigration authorities, among other proposals.
