Darrell Castle talks about President Trump’s broken promises and the tragedy of what could have been. Transcript / Notes BETRAYAL Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today’s Castle Report. Today is Friday, September 22, 2017, and on today’s Report, I will be talking about promises made and promises broken, and what might have been from President Donald Trump. President Trump campaigned on a promise that he would end DACA on his first day in office, but 8 months later he makes a feeble attempt but then reneges. Last week I said that he sent Attorney General Jeff Sessions out to announce that he was going to issue an order withdrawing President Obama’s executive order establishing DACA, but then the President invited Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer to the Whitehouse for dinner. Ms. Pelosi issued a statement summarizing the discussions and stated that there would be legislation re-establishing DACA by law, which the President had agreed to sign. There would be serious discussion about border security “less the wall.” The Whitehouse Press Secretary said that, yes, border security was discussed, but no discussion about not building a wall, there was no agreement about that. That would make Nancy Pelosi either an idiot or a public liar. That’s possible but highly unlikely. No, folks, it sure sounds like the promise which first got him noticed in the polls, i.e., “I’ll build a wall and make Mexico pay for it”, has been abandoned. Republican Speaker of the House Paul Ryan told a group of Republicans that “only one person wants a wall”. Well, Mr. Ryan, I beg to differ because 63 million Americans voted for that wall, but hey, who cares about them. Everyone in Washington not only wants no wall, they want amnesty. Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer, along with all Democrats, want it. Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, and all the liberal Republicans, want it. The tech company billionaires in Silicon Valley want it, and it looks like they will have it because the only ones who don’t want it are the ones with no power and no influence. Tens of millions of tax paying Americans don’t want it, but they do not count. So no repeal of DACA, and no wall, along with the destruction of the Republican Governors’ lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of DACA , those are what President Trump has delivered instead of fulfilling his promises to the voters. This President likes the deal. He is the consummate deal maker and he likes the deal more than the Constitution and the rule of law. He worked out a deal with the Democrats and they got everything they wanted, but what did we get? I just don’t see the quid pro quo. It is a very sad reminder of what could have been. This is what happens when you elect someone with no ideological motivation. He had the power to withdraw President Obama’s unconstitutional Executive Order on his first day as he said he would, but he chose not to. What a message that would have sent around the world, but instead, he chose to send a message of betrayal. I remember President Reagan’s amnesty bill in 1986, which was supposed to be the last one, and was supposed to include border security. What amnesty did instead was to deliver California to the Democrats forever. That’s not enough for the Democrats though, they want the entire country forever. This all brings two questions to mind; what is the value of citizenship, and what is the value of coming to America legally? American citizenship has always been the golden prize, the brass ring that millions around the world desired, but was obtainable by only a few. Five cities in Maryland have now passed laws making it legal for non citizens to vote. In Philadelphia, a city Councilman recently stated that hundreds of non citizens vote there. So once again, what’s the point of legality? Perhaps America is now a “failed state”. I looked “failed state” up in the dictionary and it said “a state that deteriorates to where conditions and responsibilities of a sovere...
