Here is the clip of Trump on the issue this AM:

http://video.foxnews.com/v/5093822545001/trump-on-clinton-foundation-shut-it-down-give-money-back/?#sp=show-clips

They speak on it from approximately 4:30 to 5:40.

He said, because he was asked, that he is not flip-flopping. He slammed a Buzzfeed writer for having got wrong whether he would run for president, and said they were “about as accurate” on this as on that. But then he clearly, repeatedly, and emphatically said that we have to be “firm but fair” with illegals that are already here and that they’re working with the Hispanic community to come up with something that is “firm but fair”. He is implying that simply being “firm” by enforcing our immigration laws somehow isn’t “fair” and thus he needs to come up with a program that will be “fair”.

Satisfied?

Not satisfied at all.

Sounds to me like you’re trying to erode Trump’s support by propagandizing with creative interpretations of his statements.

Like you have been for months now.

Trump has said from the beginning of his campaign that we should be “firm but fair” with illegals and that when he builds his “beautiful wall” there will be a “big golden door” in the center to “let the good ones back in”.

I don’t know why you or anyone would have a problem with it now. He hasn’t changed and isn’t changing. He’s always been for deportation but he’s also clearly always been for some kind of amnesty. He doesn’t call it that of course but what else could “let the good ones back in” mean?

I and others repeatedly pointed this out in the primary and were called “anti-Trump Cruzbots” and worse. Well at least I’m consistent in my beliefs about him. I don’t expect much out of him at all but the deportation of those he can deport immediately (as president) and nominating constitutionalist judges for the SC. Everything else is fantasy to believe about him (including that he’s “against amnesty”) I know that and have known it since I decided to vote for him months ago. I’m still voting for him because there’s no choice.

If one is uncomfortable voting for him now (note this post isn’t just to you), well all I can say is “welcome to reality”, and “where were you months ago”.
