As for "America being outraged" it may be that Trump was able to win by the slimmest of margins, but you should remember that this margin included many people who I expect have since reconsidered their decision to vote for him. We'll know for sure in a few months.

He didn't insult any US citizens. Trump was in a closed door meeting trying to solve immigration problems. It was Dick Durbin who went public with this nonsense to score points with his base. The media has been smearing Trump to the rest the world for two years, just like they did Reagan and Bush.

Why is it that Pelosi can make comments about "5 white guys" and the media says nothing? She's not racist, and Trump is???

I have long been convinced that most Dems care nothing for minorities or immigrants. They simply use them as pawns to advance their agenda. They care nothing about the Dreamers, and never intended to pass laws. They actually want Trump to enforce our laws in March, exporting immigrants. These Dems are hypocrites. Go back and listen to what they said 10 years ago.

Congressman Smith (TX) said the same thing: "If the Democrats don’t want to negotiate, they’ll always come up with some excuse, and maybe this is an indication that they were never serious to begin with, but they’ll always come up with some reason not to negotiation, or make an excuse not to make concessions. This is just another distraction, another excuse for the Democrats to do that. I think when things settle down over the next several days we’ll find out whether the Democrats were really serious and want to have an immigration bill, want to try to something for some of the so-called DACA folks. We’ll know that in the next few days. It’ll be an indication of whether they’re negotiating in good faith whether they come back to the table."
