Ingraham Blasts McCain-Coons Immigration Bill: ‘This Bill Is Basically a Rerun of the Failed Gang of 8 Fiasco’

RUSH EXCERPT:

INGRAHAM: "Have you heard the media off fawn all over Capitol Hill’s latest immigration plan? It’s being billed as a bipartisan approach which is a complete joke since its sponsors are amnesty zealot John McCain of Arizona and liberal Delaware senator Chris coons. This bill is basically a rerun of the failed gang of 8 fiasco that flopped out in 2013. Remember that legislation was so unpopular that even its original sponsor Marco Rubio had to walk it back and now he considers it a big mistake. So gang of 82.0 would grant legal status and a path to citizenship to young migrants who came here before 2014. And that is a number that far exceeds the 1.8 million that President Trump was willing to make citizens in his compromise gesture. And there would be no border wall funding. And it would keep chain migration, that entire scam would keep going. So, obviously, this is a complete nonstarter for the White House, meaning, McCain coons was a stupid ploy, not a serious plan. Lawmakers who have been shopping various amnesties for years focused most of their empathy and concern on illegal immigrants who fear deportation. Not on Americans whose lives have been devastated by illegal immigrant crime. President Trump, however, hasn’t forgotten those people and today he focused on closing immigration loopholes to keep groups like ms-13 out of our country. As for the Democrats refusing to come to the table, trump is willing to play hard ball."
