An explosive new ad by the Trump campaign implying that Democrats would be "complicit" in any murder committed by undocumented immigrants "doesn't work," a leading Democratic senator said. 
  
 "The American people are not going to accept the premise that immigrants are criminals and that we ought to deport the 'Dreamers,'" Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois told ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos on "This Week" Sunday about an ad posted Saturday night to Trump's campaign website and YouTube page. 
  
 "It doesn't work," Durbin said. 
  
 The ad was posted as Republicans and Democrats try to reach an agreement that will end the government shutdown that started at the stroke of midnight Saturday. 
  
 Immigration issues have been core to that debate, including the president's proposed border wall and Democrats' call for protections for so-called 'Dreamers,' the approximately 800,000 young immigrants who were brought illegally to the U.S. as children. 
  
 "What it comes down to is we need a reasonable approach [to immigration] that is mindful of our national security, number one, but embraces a basic value in America," Durbin said. "We are a diverse nation, a nation of immigrants, and we're proud of it." 
  
 Stephanopoulos asked about the deal that Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer reportedly offered to the president Friday -- full funding of the border wall in exchange for protecting 'Dreamers' from deportation and making no changes to some other programs that enable legal immigration into the country. 
  
 "It is true that Chuck Schumer made what I considered to be a bold and important concession and said, 'Yes, we'll go forward with the wall as long as we do this in a responsible fashion,'" Durbin responded. 
  
 Stephanopoulos asked if it was correct that the border wall would cost $20 billion. 
  
 "I'm not going to quote numbers because I don't think that's my place ... but I can tell you it was a substantial commitment to the president. The president embraced it. And Chuck came back to the Hill." 
  
 But, Durbin added, "Two hours later, a call from the White House says, 'The deal is off. We're not going to stand by this at all.'" 
  
 The senator added, "How can you negotiate with the president under those circumstances where he agrees face-to-face to move forward with a certain path and then within two hours calls back and pulls the plug?" 
  
 Asked if Congress will reach a deal in time for the government to reopen Monday, Durbin said he couldn't answer but added, "There are bipartisan conversations going on right now." 
  
 In a separate appearance on "This Week" Sunday, North Carolina Republican Congressman Mark Meadows disputed the notion that the president had reached an agreement with Schumer. 
  
 Meadows, who chairs the House Freedom Caucus, addressed reports that he had convinced Trump to reject the proposed deal. 
  
 “The president is the president of the United States,” the congressman said. “He makes his own decisions.” 
  
 “Any suggestion that I'm going to convince the president to go one way or another greatly exaggerates my influence," Meadows said. "And I will say this, there was no deal. There is no deal.” 
  
 Meadows also took issue with reports about how the border wall would be funded. "You were talking about Schumer offering $20 billion over seven years -- he can't do that," Meadows said. 
  
 Meadows continued, “You can't obligate a future Congress. So even if [Schumer] made that offer, he can't even deliver on the very offer that he's putting forth. So when we look at this, let's call it what it is. This is a tactic.” ||||| Published on Jan 20, 2018

 The ad was released hours into the government shutdown. The largest point of contention between political parties that led to the government shutdown was immigration policy -- including the funding for a proposed border wall and the future of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, which has protected undocumented immigrants brought to the United States as children from deportation. 
  
 "They need a path toward citizenship," Sanders said, referring to the beneficiaries of DACA, known as Dreamers. "Then you see a President put something like that on the air, trying to divide us up, trying to foment hatred. It is really sad."

– Just hours into the government shutdown, the Trump campaign released a video claiming that Democrats in Congress will be "complicit" in every murder committed by immigrants in the country illegally, the Hill reports. "President Trump is right—build the wall, deport criminals, stop illegal immigration now," the ad says. "Democrats who stand in our way will be complicit in every murder committed by illegal immigrants." (Watch it here.) The campaign posted the ad Saturday after negotiations over a short-term spending bill stalled over protections for immigrants in the US under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. The ad was greeted with anger by Democrats and Independents in Washington and with consternation by some of the president's fellow Republicans. "It is really unbelievable and so sad for our country that we have a President of the United States that says such nonsense and such outrageous statements," said Bernie Sanders, per CNN. Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin, meanwhile, said the ad "doesn't work," ABC News reports. "The American people are not going to accept the premise that immigrants are criminals and that we ought to deport the 'dreamers,'" Durbin said. Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan told CBS's Face the Nation he doesn't know if the ad is "necessarily productive."
En explosiv ny annons av Trump kampanj som antyder att demokrater skulle vara "medskyldiga" i varje mord som begås av papperslösa invandrare "inte fungerar," en ledande demokratisk senator sade. "Det amerikanska folket kommer inte att acceptera premissen att invandrare är brottslingar och att vi borde deportera 'Dreamers,'" Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin från Illinois berättade ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos på "This Week" söndag om en annons postad lördag kväll till Trump kampanj webbplats och YouTube-sida. »Det fungerar inte», sade Durbin. Annonsen publicerades som republikaner och demokrater försöker nå en överenskommelse som kommer att avsluta regeringens avstängning som startade vid slagfältet midnatt lördag. Invandringsfrågor har varit kärnan i denna debatt, inklusive presidentens föreslagna gränsmur och demokraters krav på skydd för så kallade ”dreamers”, de cirka 800 000 unga invandrare som fördes olagligt till USA som barn. "Vad det handlar om är att vi behöver en rimlig strategi [för invandring] som är medveten om vår nationella säkerhet, nummer ett, men anammar ett grundläggande värde i Amerika," Durbin sade. "Vi är en mångskiftande nation, en nation av invandrare, och vi är stolta över det." Stephanopoulos frågade om affären som senatens minoritetsledare Chuck Schumer enligt uppgift erbjöd presidenten fredag -- full finansiering av gränsmuren i utbyte mot att skydda 'Dreamers' från deportation och inte göra några ändringar i några andra program som möjliggör laglig invandring till landet. "Det är sant att Chuck Schumer gjorde vad jag ansåg vara en djärv och viktig eftergift och sade, "Ja, vi ska gå framåt med väggen så länge vi gör detta på ett ansvarsfullt sätt,"" Durbin svarade. Stephanopoulos frågade om det var korrekt att gränsmuren skulle kosta 20 miljarder dollar. "Jag tänker inte citera siffror för jag tror inte att det är min plats... men jag kan säga att det var ett stort engagemang för presidenten. Presidenten tog emot det. Och Chuck kom tillbaka till The Hill." Men, Durbin tillade, "Två timmar senare, ett samtal från Vita huset säger, 'Avtalet är av. Vi skola inte alls stå vid detta.» Senatorn tillade, "Hur kan du förhandla med presidenten under de omständigheter där han går med på ansikte mot ansikte för att gå vidare med en viss väg och sedan inom två timmar ringer tillbaka och drar ur kontakten?" Frågade om kongressen kommer att nå en överenskommelse i tid för regeringen att öppna måndag, Durbin sade att han inte kunde svara men tillade, "Det pågår bipartisan samtal just nu." I ett separat framträdande på "This Week" Sunday, North Carolina Republikanska kongressledamot Mark Meadows ifrågasatte föreställningen att presidenten hade nått en överenskommelse med Schumer. Meadows, som är ordförande för huset Freedom Caucus, tog upp rapporter om att han hade övertygat Trump att avvisa den föreslagna affären. "Presidenten är president i USA," sade kongressledamoten. “Han fattar sina egna beslut.” “Varje förslag om att jag ska övertyga presidenten att gå en eller annan väg kraftigt överdriver mitt inflytande,” Meadows sade. »Och jag skall säga detta, det var ingen deal. Det finns ingen affär.” Meadows tog också upp rapporter om hur gränsmuren skulle finansieras. "Du pratade om att Schumer erbjöd 20 miljarder dollar under sju år -- det kan han inte", sa Meadows. Meadows fortsatte: “Du kan inte ålägga en framtida kongress. Så även om [Schumer] gav det erbjudandet kan han inte ens leverera det erbjudande som han lägger fram. Så när vi tittar på det här, låt oss kalla det vad det är. Detta är en taktik. " "Publicerad den 20 jan 2018 Donald Trump valdes till president för att bygga muren och hålla amerikanska familjer säkra från onda, olagliga invandrare som begår våldsbrott mot lagliga amerikanska medborgare, Ändå, ett år efter president Trumps invigning, Chuck Schumer och demokraterna fortsätter att sätta intressen illegala invandrare över de amerikanska. I vår nya kampanjannons uppmärksammas den starka kontrasten mellan ”medhjälpande” demokrater och presidenten för hans fulla engagemang för att bygga en mur och fixa vår gräns för att skydda amerikaner från droger, mord och andra grymheter. Bernie Sanders kritiserade en webbannons som nyligen publicerades av president Donald Trumps omvalskampanj, som kallade demokraterna "medskyldiga i varje mord som begås av illegala invandrare." "Det är verkligen otroligt och så sorgligt för vårt land att vi har en president i USA som säger sådant nonsens och sådana upprörande uttalanden," Vermont Independent, som caucuses med demokrater, sade på CNN: s "State of the Union" söndag morgon. Annonsen släpptes timmar in i regeringens avstängning. Den största tvistepunkten mellan politiska partier som ledde till regeringens avstängning var invandringspolitiken -- inklusive finansieringen av en föreslagen gränsmur och framtiden för programmet Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) som har skyddat papperslösa invandrare som förts till USA som barn från deportation. "De behöver en väg mot medborgarskap", sade Sanders, syftande på mottagarna av DACA, känd som Dreamers. "Då ser du en president som försöker splittra oss och underblåsa hat. Det är verkligen sorgligt." Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Illinois, sade på ABC: s "This Week" att retoriken används i Trump annonsen "inte fungerar," citera republikanen Ed Gillespies misslyckade guvernatorial kampanj annonser, som attackerade nu-Virginia Gov.

Demokraterna har riktat Republikanerna för att ha använt Children's Health Insurance Program som ett förhandlingschip, och har skyllt på Trumps "kaotiska" majoritetsparti för att låta avstängningen ske på dess vakt.
