Chuck Schumer refused a last-minute offer to aid the DACA ‘dreamer’ illegals for three-years in exchange for funding the border wall…
In a series of tweets by Chuck Schumer’s spokesman Matt House, it has come out that there was a secret negotiation between Democrats and Republicans regarding DACA and the fate of dreamers

There was no indication the White House was on board, there were no ‘clean’ offers, & no delays in responding. 6/

And, they turned down another chance for @realDonaldTrump to get the wall to boot. 8/8

President Trump took to Twitter before and after the Omnibus twitter to say that Democrats have indeed abandoned the Dreamers and given up on DACA
The Democrats do not want to help DACA. Would be so easy to make a deal!

Democrats refused to take care of DACA. Would have been so easy, but they just didn’t care. I had to fight for Military and start of Wall.
