As many suspected, el Presidente Trump didn’t really mean to say that his executive order on immigration would contain “amnesty.” From Reuters:
U.S. President Donald Trump’s planned executive order on immigration will not include amnesty for migrants who are in the United States illegally but arrived in the country as children, a White House spokesman said on Friday.
“This does not include amnesty,” White House spokesman Judd Deere said in a statement, after Trump said in a television interview his planned order would include a road to citizenship for such immigrants, known as “Dreamers.”
Here’s the full statement:
Uhm… so he is willing to give illegal alien DACA “dreamers” citizenship, but it’s not in his executive order. Which is specifically what he said when he made that statement on Friday – he literally said a pathway to citizenship would be in his executive order.
