Why solve a problem…if that problem gets them votes when it remains unsolved?

The easiest way to identify those ‘exploitable’ issues? Watch when either political Party controls Congress, but fail to pass the legislation they claim is the solution to the issue.

This is why immigration issues don’t get solved…just exploited.

And, please, don’t invoke the ’60-Senate-votes-needed’ excuse. The Party controlling the Senate can remove that ‘need’…simply by invoking the 51-vote ‘nuclear’ option.

But, failing that, Congressional politicians have given up their integrity, their ‘leadership’ mantle, long ago. In the process, they forfeited that role to the Executive branch…

…and the man running that Branch is more than willing to force them to do their job.

That’s why President Trump signed an e.o. that literally says he will enforce the laws the Congress has legislated, acting in an humane way to the extent the laws allow it.

His e.o. also indicates his Dept of Justice will ask the 9th Circuit Court to modify their agreement that involves how long we detain illegal alien children taken into custody.

With one executive order, President Trump made himself out the good guy, while

• proving he can and will act humanely, to the extent the laws allow it;
• placing the burden of legislative responsibility squarely on Congress;
• forcing the very-Left-leaning 9th Circuit Court into an indefensible position.

THAT’S LEADERSHIP.
