DREAMers Threaten to Leave Country If DACA Amnesty Deal Doesn’t Go Down

Former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney was mocked and scorned over his suggestion that illegal aliens “self-deport” but he may have really been onto something.

In a pity play of the sort that the media just eats up, some DREAMers are threatening to leave the United States if the Democrats aren’t able to extort the Trump administration and Republicans in Congress to grant them and millions of other illegal aliens amnesty through extending DACA.

The Democrats are gambling that their liberal flunkies in the press will be able to put enough of a guilt trip on all of the Americans who live here legally to manufacture consent for blanket amnesty without any meaningful concessions on immigration policies and border security.

Via the Daily Wire “DREAMers Threaten To Leave The Country If Congress Doesn’t Reach A DACA Deal”:

A group of DREAMers, young illegal immigrants fighting to stay in the country following the Trump Administration’s refusal to extend the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) executive order, say they’ll leave the country if a deal isn’t reached . . . err . . . to keep them in the country.

Speaking to CNN, one of these DREAMers, Alex Velez, said, “I will leave. I will leave America as soon as possible,” claiming that she would prefer to depart the country on her own terms than wait for the United States to collect and deport her.

The theory appears to be that, if DREAMers suddenly disappear, Americans will notice their absence. Velez and her sister claim they own businesses, pay tuition, and hold jobs, and that America has a duty to keep them here in order to maintain their contributions.

CNN which gave the Velez’s a forum provides additional details:

Should Alex, who is 19, find herself unprotected, she said she is clear on what her plan will be. “I will leave. I will leave America as soon as possible,” she said. “I want to be able to leave on my terms. I’m not going to be waiting for anyone to come for me.”

The tradeoffs will be significant: Alex will be abandoning the $10,000 in tuition she’s paid and the two years’ worth of community college credits she’s built up in her pursuit to become a veterinary technician. She will also have to quit her job at clothing store Forever 21, where she was just promoted to a merchandising position four weeks ago.

And she will leave behind friends she has known since middle and high school, invaluable relationships that she says have shaped her life.

“In all honesty, it is scary to think about leaving,” she said. “My mom cried for the first time since we talked about our situation. She’s a positive person and is hoping that something good will happen for us.”

Alex and Daniela came to the U.S. from Venezuela with their parents when they were four and nine years old, respectively.

“When Hugo Chavez became president in the late 1990s, things started to change and become difficult for the middle class,” said Daniela.

Their father wanted the family to escape the situation. The family arrived in the U.S. on visitor visas and then overstayed. They settled into a one-bedroom apartment in Burlington, New Jersey, where they still live today. Alex and Daniella share a pullout sofa bed.

“I only realized I was undocumented when I was in middle school,” said Alex. It happened when the DACA program was enacted in 2012 and Daniela was old enough to apply. “Most of my school friends still don’t know about my situation,” she said.

Is it insensitive to say hasta la vista babies?

The Velez sisters may not find Venezuela to be as hospitable considering that the country is bordering on anarchy, starving people have resorted to eating zoo animals and residents are fleeing the country faster than sensible Americans are getting out of San Francisco but hey, illegal is illegal.

These will the type of stories that you can expect to see more of as the propaganda blitz to save the DREAMers really begins to pick up steam before DACA nears muerte in March.

The Mittster wasn’t right about much but that self-deportation thing seems to be a win-win situation for everyone involved as well as an end to this nonsense.
