Real estate mogul Donald Trump met with immigrant advocates on Wednesday to discuss immigration reform and ended the meeting with a resolution to move the debate forward.
Trump met with youth immigrant leaders Jose Machado, Diego Sanchez and nationally renowned Dreamer Gaby Pacheco of The Bridge Project at Trump Towers in New York at the request of Antonio Tijerino, President and CEO of the Hispanic Heritage Foundation.
“He really listened and asked thoughtful questions,†said Machado of the meeting to discuss immigration reform. “We had the opportunity to share our stories and explain why millions of Americans from California, Colorado, Texas, Florida and New York (to name a few states) have come out to say, ‘We need to find a solution to our broken immigration system.’†The Bridge Project aims to link the gap between political parties and connect Americans from across the political spectrum to advocate for immigration reform. The group is currently in the midst of a seven-state tour to gather support for reform.
And it seems the meeting was fruitful, shared Machado. Trump told the trio “You’ve convinced me.â€

Facts:
1) Except in the very odd/exceptional election year of 1964, the Dems haven’t cracked 50% of the whites in a Presidential election since 1932.
2) Once the ‘64 election was over, the Dems understood that they would never win another Presidential election again unless the Republicans REALLY screwed up...or unless they changed the electorate in a dramatic way.
3) The Dems, courtesy of Bobby Kennedy who wrote the law, and Teddy Kennedy who pushed it in the Senate, passed the 1965 Immigration Act. That law dramatically reduced immigration from our then-traditional large sources of immigrants - England, Ireland, Holland, Germany, etc. - and replaced them with vast numbers of Turd Worlders...whom everyone knows vote around 80% for Dems, and will continue to do so for the rest of their lives, as new immigrants have traditionally done.
4) As a result of the ‘65 Act, and due to the Dem’s outright lying in ‘86 regarding an effective (or any) fence, there are now probably 30 - 40 million illegals in this nation. Note that the (probably low-ball) figure in 2005 was 11 million...we have 2-3 million come in every year, so simple math says that the number is actually somewhere between 31 and 41 million). If any substantial portion of these people ever become citizens, then the Dems will have accomplished a complete shift of the electorate, and will be virtually invincible on the national level. Every state will become like California, both politically and economically - which is to say, overwhelming Dem and broke. But at least if you don’t like California now, you can leave for a better place without much trouble - where are you going to go if EVERY state is like that?
5) Every Republican, and every Conservative voter MUST UNDERSTAND that if such a state of affairs comes to be, NO OTHER ISSUE WILL MATTER AT ALL, because we will ALWAYS AND FOREVER lose on those issues. Immigration is THE issue of this election, and this election is as critical as the 1860 election was - and for the same reason, because it will determine whether this nation continues on as it has existed in the past, or becomes a new and unrecognizable entity that simply occupies the same geographic territory.
Please wake up, and help others to do so by sending them this post (or recommending “Adios America†to them). It really is THAT important.
So you did a lot of digging to prove what exactly?
He was obviously willing to hear their point of view. I have no problems with that. In fact, I respect it.
That drunk killer @#$@#$ kennedy!! I didn’t know that!!!
how did republicans allow that?
I just thought western Europeans had no reason to come anymore!!!
more of my paisani could have been here??
I hate dems.
OMG... Trump is soooooo soft on illegal immigration.... just kidding.. lol
Trump was thinking, “You’ve” convinced me to get this insipid meeting over with already! lol
Some people here have no understanding of the art of negotiation.
Trump was thinking, “You’ve” convinced me to have Mexican for dinner tonight!
To prove that trump supporters are wrong, I should not run for president, I should think.
I don’t know who trump banshees think is going to break the clintonbushe cartel or keep it out of this cycle for the first time in thirty years and keep them from finally destroying the country.
Bernie sanders? Rubio?
But why did you date it 12/26/2015?
But some appear to have the art of excuse-making down pat.
Trump also declined to elaborate on his position on immigration reform. In his address, he said Republicans need to “do the right thing” and reform the system. The Senate passed a comprehensive bill in June, but House Republican leaders have said they plan to take a piecemeal approach.
Asked which portions of the Senate’s bill he would support moving forward, Trump said: “I actually think it’s too early to say.”
“I will say this, you have to form a very very strong barrier from people just flowing in like candy. It’s no good, you can’t have it. We either have a country, or we don’t have a country,” he said.
You convinced him of what?
Yes they do. Even when explaining their votes on the senate floor.
What this might prove is that Donald Trump tells those that listen what they want to hear.
