After a beehive of activity, Jared Kushner will finally be unveiling his comprehensive immigration plan!

True then, true now
Ann Coulter  . . . "Trump's genius was that he was pushing policies that were popular. The fact that the media said they weren't just made him look brave. He used the media's lies against them. 
"Political analysts kept droning on and on about Trump's mysterious appeal, but in all their prolix analyses, I can't find a single one saying, Boy, were we wrong about immigration! 
"Trump proved it's not a suicidal act to notice that high levels of immigration do not benefit most Americans. Republicans refuse to understand that not all rising tides lift all boats. There are ways the rich can do well while most of the country does worse. ... 
"Some Republicans surely knew in their hearts that dumping millions of low-wage workers on America was hurting the people who lived here, but they were too scared of not getting the fat checks to say so." . . . 

. . . 
"Elected Republicans run for office on defending the middle class, then get to Washington and concentrate on gifts to big business. They'd say, Of course we're with you on immigration, but unless you write us a check there's nothing we can do. 
"Then they get elected and say, Oh yeah ... about immigration, we'll be screwing you over on that -- but we are going to pass a job-killing trade deal! And don't worry -- Wall Street will be getting a blank check. I think a little gratitude is in order. 
"That's not what we asked for!

"We had no choice but to vote for Trump. Hillary was promising to take us straight to hell. I've got it all mapped out, the coordinates are in the GPS, I'll have us in hell within 24 hours! Trump was promising to take us in the exact opposite direction. 
"We elected him. But that didn't happen. It turns out that instead of taking us away from hell, he's zigzagging all over creation, sometimes getting stuck in a parking lot, sometimes heading straight for hell, then suddenly taking a left at the last minute, so that it's never clear where we're headed. 
"But on the eve of the big immigration plan unveiling, let's remind him what we voted for. (By "him," obviously I mean Jared.)"
