Message to the GOP: Trump supports amnesty
American Enterprise Institute ^ | 11/13/15 | Mark A Thiessen

Posted on 01/05/2016 8:43:49 AM PST by gwgn02

Trump supporters loved his promise this week to create a deportation force to remove all 11 million illegal immigrants living in America, and his repeated declaration that everyone here illegally will have to go.But his supporters tend to overlook is his other promise repeated in Tuesdays Fox Business debate that under his immigration plan they will come back.

They broke our laws by coming illegally before, they should be barred from ever coming back.

Liberals to Americans - “Don’t support Trump, he’s just as bad as we are. Vote for us instead.”

He said they would be allowed back LEGALLY

So they have to meet the immigration requirements to get in here

I doubt 80% would even meet the requirements

They can get back in line and wait for a dozen years or so. Nice try by the GOPe but I’ll still back Trump and Cruz. Jeb, not so much.

“They broke our laws by coming illegally before, they should be barred from ever coming back.”

I have a feely a majority would not even be able to meet the legal requirements to come here. If you follow our immigration laws, they are actually strict, it isn’t easy to immigrate here.

So what else is new? We’ve known this for a while, but the Trumpkins are in denial about it.

Mark Thiessen’s witch nose just grew a little longer. He rivals Porky Pig Rove as the biggest Trump basher on Fox.

Yes, and Trump has also said that there will be a method of screening so that only the “good” ones will come back.

I admit that he has not clarified this, but in my mind this means live right, not a gang member, not on welfare and you can come back. And as a Trump supporter, I have no problem with this.

Nothing new from The Donald.

For people that have been here for years, that have been hard workers, have good jobs, they're supporting their family, it's very, very tough to just say, "By the way, 22 years, you have to leave. Get out." I'm one of the world's very conservative people, but I have to tell you on a human basis, how do you throw somebody out that's lived in this country for 20 years?

- Donald J. Trump, June 18, 2012.

Trump would put them on an even par with everyone else in the world who wants to come here legally.

Right now they are getting a tremendously unfair advantage.

Getting to decide who comes in, and under what conditions IS THE DEFINITION of controlling your borders.

If Trump proposed to shut down ALL immigration for everyone, forever, the AEI would be denouncing him as a nutjob.

Build the wall. Deport illegal immigrants, enforce the restrictions on their return and limit return to those who obey the law as written.

If this separates families, send the family back with them. This includes children born while in this country.

If asylum is being claimed, hold the asylum seeker in detention until the facts are fully clarified.

Overstays on visas get no grace period. Bundle up and on the next plane out to the home country, if you please. Bundle up and on the next plane out to the home country, if you don’t please. Just bundle up and on the next plane out to the home country.

Such clever use of name calling.

Your skill in subtle belittling is almost grammar school like.

Amazing, you are not.

99% is more likely.

Trump says the “good ones” can come back. I say, there are no “good ones.” Anyone who would sneak across our border like a thief in the night, or deliberately overstay a visa, is NOT “good” and should never be allowed back in. They jumped the line ahead of people waiting to come legally into this country. I hope someone who has the ear of Trump will straighten him out on this.

Oh, I get it!

This must be the GOPE/FR Cruz Club latest lame attack of the day.

I’m wondering how many of these Cruz people are just GOPE plants. They seem to operate in packs. Spamming articles, with the same talking points, and then they vanish just as fast.

GOPe at it's worst, open mouth insert feet...

Trump wants all illegal people to leave, build the wall; stop any form of immigration until we can sit down and hash out a better vetting system as to WHO are trying to come here....then if they want to stand in line and do it LEGALLY he has no problem with that...

What he does NOT want is to make those here legal before they are vetted, and apparently there are a bunch that our own government has said they have no idea where they are and are over on their visa time...so what would be the GOPe’s idea of a better situation?

Oh yeah, GOPe wants everyone and their dogs registered Democrat so that they can beat Trump (and Cruz) so Heb will give the Throne to Hillary....I forgot about that...
