Trump Contradicts Democrats’ Claim Of DACA Deal

NBC News reports:



President Donald Trump insisted Thursday morning that there was “no deal” with Democrats to extend protections for so-called Dreamers, but pleaded with congressional leaders to reach one, and vowed to push ahead with his border wall.

“No deal was made last night on DACA. Massive border security would have to be agreed to in exchange for consent. Would be subject to vote,” Trump tweeted in a series of posts.

The tweets came just hours after Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, following a dinner meeting with Trump, said they’d reached a deal with the president “to enshrine the protections of DACA into law quickly, and to work out a package of border security, excluding the wall, that’s acceptable to both sides.”
