Here’s what Mr. Trump offered in a plan for fighting illegal immigration:
• Build the wall.
• End the catch and release policy for undocumented immigrants and instead return them to their country of origin.
• Have zero tolerance for undocumented immigrants who have committed a crime, and deport them.
• Triple the number of deportation officers at the department of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
• Repeal President Obama’s executive orders that temporarily protected undocumented immigrants from deportation and authorized them to receive work permit
• Stop issuing visas to any country where “adequate screening cannot occur” that might endanger national security;.
• Ensure foreign countries take back deported immigrants from the United States (Mr. Trump said 23 countries refuse to do so).
• Complete a biometric entry and exit visa tracking system under development. “It will be on land, it will be on sea, it will be in the air,” he said.

I would like to see Trump’s next focus on Obama’s ‘refugee resettlement’ problem.
“By the start time of 11 a.m., there were dozens of journalist but only a few protesters. A half-hour later, the number of protesters — at least those being vocal and carrying anti-Trump signs — seemed stuck at four, including a guy wearing a Mexican wrestling mask, while the number of journalists topped 50. By 12:30 p.m., there were no more than 10 demonstrators, while the journalist pack continued to balloon.”
Maybe if no one showed up to protest it’s because they really aren’t that mad. The media just wants them to be.
Was disappointed he didn’t want to cut off food stamps and other welfare services. without that support system, they would not survive here.
Great observation. The media is trying to create news. Need pictures!
Trump did mention that those coming into the country had to be self-sustaining. The speech was 1 hr. 15 min., so he couldn’t elaborate on every point. CNN’s analysts thought he didn’t give details! What a collection of Democrat shills.
Actually he did say that, he had a 10 point plan, that was point number 10
The liberals are not going to mention it because it would make Trump the most popular candidate ever to run for president
...but you will only see what the MSM wants you to see right?
Well if Pena Nieto said Mexico would not pay for the wall and Trump said nothing in response concerning that then they they didn't discuss it, did they? So Trump could very well be correct.
He did. In point number 9.
I believe our foreign aid to Mexico is about 600 million a year. That would be enough to begin a wall.
Trump’s focus yesterday was about illegal immigrants, he did say about ‘temporarily stop’ incoming refugees unless there is better screening process.
What about those already here, and ‘legal’ immigrants according to Obama’s EO?
“.......he didn’t want to cut off food stamps and other welfare services.”.......
I believe he did cover that but did not speak specifically to those issues.
But that's your money. Which means Mexico isn't paying for the wall, you are.
I recall him saying that along with the criminals, those that are collecting benefits will have to go. He said that money can be spent helping citizens and school choice for children in poor urban areas.
from verbal polls (conservative talk radio) all callers are saying DEPORT EVEN if one child is born here and that is the right thing to do (imho). There should be the application of immigration law applied in the broadest sense of the word.
Obama’s EO doesn’t mean jack shite
Hey, send ‘em back. If they wanna’ come back-??? —— do it legally.
SECURE OUR BORDERS~!
TRUMP 2016
It is my firm belief the law should be applied equally.
Suppose you have a family unit of a Dad & Mom, two children of middle school age and they have crossed the border illegally. Subsequently Mom is delivered of a child 9 mos later in the US. Mom certainly can’t leave behind a infant can she? Does she or Dad have relatives that are here legally?
Imho the fairest thing to do is to apply the law of illegal immigration in the broadest sense of the word with or w/o children and everyone return.
Once their status is re-confirmed in their home country the application process for legal entry into the US should be started.
Why the rush?
