National Review Editor-in-Chief: Trump’s Immigration Plan Works (Rich Lowry coming round)
breitbart.com ^

Posted on 08/22/2015 3:31:52 PM PDT by RoosterRedux

From Rich Lowry writing at Politico:

Donald Trump’s rise in the polls is inextricably linked to the issue of immigration.

He probably wouldn’t have achieved liftoff without it, and now that his campaign has entered a new phase of semi-attempted seriousness, it is fitting that an immigration plan is the first policy proposal he has committed to paper.

There is no doubt The Donald is an accidental immigration hawk. After the 2012 election, he was scolding Mitt Romney for using the term “self-deportation” because it was too harsh. Trump’s journey is obvious: He made an inflammatory statement in his announcement speech — not quite realizing what he was getting into — and has followed the logic of the controversy to a full-throated immigration restrictionism.

His immigration plan has occasioned the predictable horror that he might pull the Republican field to the right on immigration, or that the other candidates might pander to him. Both are outcomes to be wished for, rather than avoided.

Mark Zuckerberg’s personal Senator, Marco Rubio, has a bill to triple H-1Bs that would decimate women and minorities.

WOW. HOORAY Trump. Thanks kabar.

While I am dismayed at Cruz’s interest in increasing H1-B visas by 500% the H1-b visa program is theoretically not for IMMIGRANT visas. It is for temporary workers (who may have an anchor baby during their 6 year visit).

Otherwise, Ted Cruz is my preferred candidate.

Cruz also supports legalization of the lawbreakers, i.e., amnesty.

“My husband already has his. He wore it to our family reunion today. :

I took my new (black one) Trump hat out on its maiden voyage yesterday. My neighbor was admiring it. Get this, he’s a Dem, but likes Trump and is “warming” to him. Hah. Crossover votes here we come. He really liked the hat partly because he’s bald, lol.

They are not all stupid. The leaders are bought by foreigners and multinational corporations. America is not their country of interest and Americans are not their constituency. That is why they don’t address the interests and needs of American-Americans and America. They are “citizens of the world” in an international elitist globalization matrix and socialist NWO plan. Foreigners are their “people.” American-Americans and our constitutional Republic are in the way. Bottom line, that is why the Tea Party rose up. That is why patriot groups like the Tea Party and Veterans are on Homeland inSecurity’s terror list.

We’ve been sold off and they hate anyone who interferes in their craziness to run and profit from the globe. Whether they realize it or not, they share the global conquering ambitions of both Hitler and Lenin. It’s insane.
