… President Obama decided that, in carrying out the laws of the United States, he is going to focus on deporting dangerous felons, not grandmothers with families who are citizens.
Irate at the notion that grandmas are being coddled, while felons are given a hard time, the GOP is bound and determined to stop the president. Apparently Republicans believe holding the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) hostage is the best way to force the president to stop discriminating between felons and grandmothers.
The Speaker seems genuinely mystified that this tactic is not working. There really shouldn’t be any mystery, though.
First, Americans generally support the president’s actions. CONT.
