Immigration Expert Krikorian: White House ‘Surrender’ on Budget Deal Is ‘Betraying People Who Supported’ Trump

by Dan Riehl 3 May 2017



Mark Krikorian, Executive Director, Center for Immigration Studies spoke with Breitbart News Daily SiriusXM host Alex Marlow on Wednesday regarding the recent budget deal, which lacks border wall funding.

Asked what he thought of the border security issue as addressed by the budget deal, Krikorian said, “I think it was a surrender on the part of the president. There’s a good reason that Schumer and Pelosi are crowing about how they won on this because they did.”

While discussing the immigration issue in depth, added Krikorian, “There is the sense that in a lot of ways on immigration, the White House is now betraying people who supported him.”

From everything I've seen and heard so far, I tend to agree this budget is an overall win for the Democrats.

It passed the House 309-118. Over 100 Republicans voted against it. It will be voted on by the Senate tomorrow or before the weekend when they start an 11 day break.

So that means almost all the Democrats voted for it. That alone should tell us this was a big win for the Democrats!

Oh yeah, it was a definitely a win for Democrats, this is the Obama 2017 Budget, but it's a win for the people because Trump wielded his weight after the election and demanded a change to be involved in it, otherwise this budget would have been passed in December before he was inaugurated. And by doing what he did, he got some more money for border security, more money for the military without a match-up on domestic spending, helped the miners, and stopped the insurance company subsidies for Obamacare. There's other little goodies in there also, so I'm fine with it. It's better with Trump having been elected and getting involved with it, than if he hadn't been and this budget would have been passed in December, without his contributions.

It seems you're already having a problem with winning. You remind me of the football player that intercepts the ball and then runs it in for a touchdown at the wrong end of the field.

If you call this Ryan budget a win, I'd hate to see your idea of a lose. Of course I fully expected you to spin the budget to make Trump seem more involved than it actually seems like he was. When the going got tough, Trump faltered.
