If you’re just catching up on President Trump’s heel turn today, let’s start here. Take note of the dates on these tweets.
There will be no amnesty!#MakeAmericaGreatAgain#ImWithYouhttps://t.co/vVhzSdCblA

It is time for DC to protect the American worker, not grant amnesty to illegals. Let’s Make America Great Again! https://t.co/u25yI5T7E8

Marco Rubio is totally weak on illegal immigration & in favor of easy amnesty. A lightweight choker – bad for #USA!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 10, 2015
Are Republicans suicidal? Now they want to push amnesty through Congress. Allowing Democrats into the country.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 30, 2014
Ted Cruz only talks tough on immigration now because he did so badly in S.C. He is in favor of amnesty and weak on illegal immigration.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 23, 2016
Wow, pres. candidate Ben Carson, who is very weak on illegal Immigration, just said he likes amnesty and a pathway to citizenship.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 12, 2015
Hillary Clinton will use American tax dollars to provide amnesty for thousands of illegals. I will put #AmericaFirst! #BigLeagueTruthpic.twitter.com/nudgLtspyJ
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 20, 2016
Congress, use the power of the purse. STOP AMNESTY!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 21, 2015
Obama has admitted that he spends his mornings watching @ESPN. Then he plays golf, fundraises & grants amnesty to illegals.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 16, 2014
In the very least, Congress must defund Obama’s unconstitutional amnesty order.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 2, 2014
Obama’s Amnesty Executive Order can now be stopped by Majority Leader McConnell with riders. That’s one reason we needed the Senate.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 5, 2014
Last night, the AP reported that “Schumer, Pelosi announce deal with Trump to protect young immigrants; will include border security, but no wall.” Trump pushed back against that assertion this morning.
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.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 14, 2017
He also seemed to be laying the groundwork for a “we don’t need a wall when we already have a wall” argument, as the reality of how expensive a contiguous wall stretching from the Pacific to the Gulf of Mexico is becoming more apparent by the day.
The WALL, which is already under construction in the form of new renovation of old and existing fences and walls, will continue to be built.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 14, 2017
He then essentially defended the Dream Act that would grant amnesty to certain individuals.
Does anybody really want to throw out good, educated and accomplished young people who have jobs, some serving in the military? Really!…..
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 14, 2017
…They have been in our country for many years through no fault of their own – brought in by parents at young age. Plus BIG border security
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 14, 2017
Needless to say, his supporters are not happy. Let’s kick this off with Congress’ most high-profile white nationalist.
@RealDonaldTrump If AP is correct, Trump base is blown up, destroyed, irreparable, and disillusioned beyond repair. No promise is credible. https://t.co/uJjxk6uX5g
— Steve King (@SteveKingIA) September 14, 2017
One of the characters on Family Guy was pretty pissed too.
If he does not build the wall, he simply will not get reelected. If he does build it, he will win 2020 by a landslide. It is that simple. https://t.co/HWVKC8MFtu

Senator Chuck Grassley voiced his disapproval in his typical confused Twitter jargon.
@realDonaldTrump Morn news says u made deal w Schumer on DACA/hv ur staff brief me/ I know u undercut JudiCimm effort 4 biparty agreement
— ChuckGrassley (@ChuckGrassley) September 14, 2017
Lou Dobbs, who was super racist long before it was cool, seems to be at a loss for words right now.
Deep State Wins, Huge Loss for #MAGA No Countrvailing WH Force to Globalists Gary Cohn, Dina Powell, Gen. Kelly, Mark Short @POTUS Betrayed https://t.co/cZzWUlUJw2
— Lou Dobbs (@LouDobbs) September 14, 2017
Trump’s lapdog, Sean Hannity, couldn’t bring himself to criticize Dear Leader, so he trained his ire on Mitch McConnell.
Well Mitch GREAT JOB! You failed so miserably with Healthcare and “excessive expectations” now @POTUS has to deal with Dem Leaders!
— Sean Hannity (@seanhannity) September 14, 2017
And @rollcall reports yesterday McConnell thinks tax deal may be pushed to 2018. Wasted opportunities. #Betrayal#EpicRepublicanFailure
— Sean Hannity (@seanhannity) September 14, 2017
Weak R’s have betrayed voters. @POTUS needs to stay the course and keep his promises or it’s over! Pelosi and Schumer can never be trusted. https://t.co/ky0NWvZoBv
— Sean Hannity (@seanhannity) September 14, 2017
If reports true 100%. I blame R’s. They caused this. They wanted him to fail and now pushed him into arms of political suicide—IF TRUE. https://t.co/WTqe6jzfa9
— Sean Hannity (@seanhannity) September 14, 2017
Ann Coulter, who wrote a book called In Trump We Trust, was extremely not mad online.
At this point, who DOESN’T want Trump impeached? https://t.co/g1mMhmm8ng
— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 14, 2017
What’s the only difference between @realDonald Trump & Carrot Top? Carrot Top might actually build the wall.
— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 14, 2017
Let’s just tell @realDonaldTrump there was a hurricane at the border. Maybe he’ll rush down there with FEMA and build a wall.
— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 14, 2017
If we’re not getting a wall, I’d prefer President Pence. https://t.co/g1mMhmm8ng
— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 14, 2017
Let’s play Jeopardy. ANSWER: An Easter egg. QUESTION: What’s
the only thing easier to roll than Donald J. Trump?— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 14, 2017
Looks like Bannon got it wrong. That shadowy force trying to nullify the 2016 election … is @realDonaldTrump.
— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 14, 2017
She also twisted herself into knots justifying her previous support for Trump.
In GOP primary, there were 16 absolute idiots being chased down street by men with nets, & 1 who wasn’t. Supporting Trump was imperative.
— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 14, 2017
We did whatever a good quarterback does in the 4th quarter, down 3 pts, with 4 seconds to go. We threw a Hail Mary pass. It didn’t work.
— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 14, 2017
Would we have preferred a candidate w/ Trump’s positions more thoughtful & who wasn’t easily rolled? YES! But that person wasn’t running.
— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 14, 2017
As Rumsfeld said, you fight with the army you have.
— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) September 14, 2017
Eternal Trump sycophant Bill Mitchell refused to let Coulter sully Trump’s name, and he claimed that seemingly going back on his campaign promises is just another example of the infinity dimensional chess game that Trump constantly has running.
.@AnnCoulter is a world-class idiot. https://t.co/qp0XsVlQXR
— Bill Mitchell (@mitchellvii) September 14, 2017
Trump ran as a dealmaker and a doer. Guess what? He’s making deals and doing.
If you’re surprised you need to find a new hobby.
— Bill Mitchell (@mitchellvii) September 13, 2017
Trump 101: Trump allows something to leak (the DACA “deal”), gets a reaction (like Romney SOS), then adjusts strategy. He ALWAYS does this.
— Bill Mitchell (@mitchellvii) September 14, 2017
Right now, mid-negotiation on #DACA, Trump is playing 15 ends against the middle. This is how he do. He’s creating leverages everywhere.
— Bill Mitchell (@mitchellvii) September 14, 2017
From now on, I’m calling this expression by Romney #mediaface for when the Left realizes Trump has played them again… pic.twitter.com/He6qyR4jF5
— Bill Mitchell (@mitchellvii) September 14, 2017
We’ve known for a while the Left was infiltrating our Twitter ranks with “fake” supporters ready to bail en masse. Ignore them.
— Bill Mitchell (@mitchellvii) September 14, 2017
I read stories of how deftly Trump is navigating #TaxReform and just laugh at click-baiters like @RealAlexJones w/ his drug conspiracies.
— Bill Mitchell (@mitchellvii) September 13, 2017
Credit to Mitchell, this is actually one of the best tweets I’ve seen on this cesspool of a website.
Can we start a drinking game where we drink every time @AnnCoulter abandons Trump? I’ll need AA in a month.
— Bill Mitchell (@mitchellvii) September 14, 2017
Conservative radio host Laura Ingraham showed off that trademark MAGA sense of humor.
Exactly what @realDonaldTrump campaigned on. Not. https://t.co/aiHqiI8ein
— Laura Ingraham (@IngrahamAngle) September 14, 2017
“BUILD THE WALL! BUILD THE WALL!”…or…maybe…not really.
— Laura Ingraham (@IngrahamAngle) September 14, 2017
When does American working class w/out real wage increase in 15yrs & who send their kids to overcrowded public schools get amnesty?
— Laura Ingraham (@IngrahamAngle) September 14, 2017
Meanwhile, plenty of Trump’s every day supporters filled people’s timelines with ultimatums that will definitely not come back to bite any of them.
Anybody objecting to Trump doing the exact opposite of what he said he would do is a leftist plant! https://t.co/yVP86OsaKp

Live in apartment, can’t burn. #AmnestyDon you broke my heart. @realDonaldTrump better look forward to retirement in 2020. #GoGetHimMuellerpic.twitter.com/jdO5edLwqo

Disgusted I ever supported you. My family went through a lot supporting u. Cruz should have been nominee. Despise u & the other GOP traitors
— Patriotic Mama? (@BluegillRises) September 14, 2017
That’s not rebuilding, that’s retouching. We want a wall that stretches from the Pacific to the Gulf of Mexico. https://t.co/ztdgbmeh5i

MAGA Media is apoplectic.

Check out Breitbart. A turning point tonight.

The problem with conservatives is that they are good, moral, trusting people who are too naive to see game being run on them.

Trump, Pelosi and Schumer just screwed us. So much for Trump being a good deal maker.
What bull.
— Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) September 14, 2017
As Chuck Schumer did with Bubbles Rubio, he is trying to make @realDonaldTrump his bitch.
Mr. President, are you Chuck Schumer’s bitch?????— Kurt Schlichter (@KurtSchlichter) September 14, 2017
