In a must-see segment on Tuesday, Fox News’ Tucker Carlson took a Democratic lawmaker to task — and supporters say it proves Democrats have no solution for former President Barack Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
A single question from Carlson left Texas Rep. Henry Cuellar speechless.
When Carlson proposed a simple query to the Congressman –who now has six months to determine a solution for the failed program — it was clear Cueallar had no answer, and tried desperately to avoid the question.
“How many years do you have to stay here? How many years to have to stay here before we don’t kick you out?” Carlson asked Cuellar.
He responded, “This is something that I think Congress will have to debate and this is why I feel that Congress — we’re going to be debating this.”
Of course, President Donald Trump has already announced that Congress will be debating a solution to the end of the DACA program. Clearly Democrats in Congress have so idea what they will do.
Carlson pressed him further by repeating the question: “You are in Congress, what do you think the time limit should be? You don’t have an opinion on it?”
Instead of answering Cuellar continues focusing on the children that were brought to America illegally 29 years ago — ignoring the fact that this will continue to be an ongoing issue without further legislation.
And finally Carlson had enough.
“You are spinning. I’ve asked you the same question four times, which is at what point do we decide we are going to enforce these laws? You won’t answer the question.”
Cuellar responded, “You keep asking the same question I’m going to give you the same answer.”
Which is, apparently, no answer at all.
