Dreamers Threaten to Leave the USA
if a DACA deal isn't made. You can't make this stuff up.


https://www.dailywire.com/news..._campaign=benshapiro


A group of DREAMers, young illegal immigrants fighting to stay in the country following the Trump Administration's refusal to extend the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) executive order, say they'll leave the country if a deal isn't reached . . . err . . . to keep them in the country.

Speaking to CNN, one of these DREAMers, Alex Velez, said, "I will leave. I will leave America as soon as possible,” claiming that she would prefer to depart the country on her own terms than wait for the United States to collect and deport her.


The theory appears to be that, if DREAMers suddenly disappear, Americans will notice their absence. Velez and her sister claim they own businesses, pay tuition, and hold jobs, and that America has a duty to keep them here in order to maintain their contributions.

The problem is, for the Velez sisters, striking against the United States for refusing to accommodate them isn't a plan with a likely payoff. The pair are undocumented citizens brought over by their parents from Venezuela, and the situation in their home country is less than ideal.

The United States Congress may be taking its time renewing the DACA Act, but Venezuela is currently crumbling under a dictator — so the theory that they'd return to a more awesome place to show President Trump what he's missing might not pan out.

If a comprehensive immigration reform plan is not approved by early March, DACA recipients will be allowed to finish out the term of their amnesty contract before being declared "illegal." Congress says it is working on a solution and President Trump has been clear that DACA recipients who overstay will not be targeted for deportation.

Oh yeah they are the backbone of America like pelosi claims. Roll Eyes

I would love to see their federal and state income tax returns, if they filed any, and an audit on any welfare benefits.

Adios and we will survive just fine and hey you can apply for citizenship anytime like everyone else has too that wants to be a citizen. What makes you so fucking special?

I'm sure they are going to be right on the heels of all those celebrities who promised to leave if Trump won.

Nancy Pelosi dreams of being a brown 6 year old boy, or something like that.

And as far as the Drippers go- Cram your threats up your ass and just GTFO.

It's like Herpes threatening to leave you. It's like the IRS threatening to not audit you.

Many of them are arrogant and believe they are fully entitled to be citizens. They make demands and are harshly critical of this country.

Case in point:
