RNC chair Reince Priebus insists Trump is 'not calling for mass deportation'

Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus assured America on Wednesday morning that its next president, Donald Trump, does not actually want to deport millions of undocumented immigrants. "He's not calling for mass deportation. He said, 'no, only people who have committed crimes and only until all of that has been taken care of do we look at what we do next,'" Priebus said during an appearance on MSNBC's Morning Joe after Election Day.

Priebus also clarified that Trump wasn't actually proposing to temporarily ban all Muslims from entering the U.S. Though Trump has explicitly said we must have a "total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on," Priebus insisted Trump wasn't in favor of "banning a particular religion." "[I]t was making sure that if immigration was coming from countries that were harboring terrorism, that we were going to look at the country and perhaps suspend temporarily immigration from that country," Priebus said.

I don't believe Trump ever called for mass deportation. So many on the left (and right) fear that he will be raiding homes and forcibly remove them.

So how do you get the illegals to leave? Easy:

1. Deport illegals in prison, which Trump said he would do. 2. E-Verify. 3. Severe financial penalties to companies that hire illegals. 4. No welfare of any kind for illegals. 5. End all federal funding for sanctuary cities/states. 6. Severe financial penalties to colleges/universities that accept illegals as students. 7. End anchor baby status. 8. Deport anyone who overstays their visa. 9. Severe financial penalties to organizations that aid illegals.

Do all that and they will leave on their own.

And of course Trump must build that wall, temporary ban on Muslims from suspect nations, temporary ban on all immigration so that the current immigrants assimilate and no bilingual education. No path to citizenship ever.

Am I forgetting anything?

Trump needs to be polite now, but replace Reince Priebus as soon as possible.

When Trump brought him up onstage during his victory speech, I had no idea who he was. Later saw him on Fox News.

In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina I went to apply for food stamps as my business had been destroyed. The waiting room was filled with pretty obvious recent immigrants from a certain country south of us. Meanwhile, I was laughed out of the building for having the affrontery of asking for help.

Have the illegals build the wall in chain-gangs from both ends and as it nears the middle and closes - they are left on the Mexican side.

1. Deport the CRIMINAL ALIENS FIRST
2. put the squeeze on illegals and those who hire them
3. eliminate any government based incentives that draw illegals here
4. Deport those left over.

"no, only people who have committed crimes"

If they're here illegally, then they've already committed a crime.

“Am I forgetting anything?”

Yes! As a high priority: “Institute a program to apprehend and deport all illegal aliens with a criminal record.”

I seem to recall that President Trump has already said he’ll do exactly that. :-)

Also, there need to be severe penalties for those who’ve been deported and subsequently return.

Reince Priebus did nothing... absolutely NOTHING... until he was backed into the corner and had no choice but to support Trump. Doing so was the last thing he wanted.

And now his nightmare has come true. And he's desperate to stay relevant.

Dear Mister Priebus: We. Don't. Need. You.

It is interesting watching the left (especially that idiot Van Jones on CNN) whine about the "white-working class" voters that went for Trump, calling them racist and all that other BS.

I think what is really bothering the Democrats is that they are rapidly losing white voters from their party. For a long time they have had trouble in attracting white males and now they seem to be having trouble with white females. Keep on losing white voters and they will be in serious trouble no matter how well they do with minorities.

Could it be that things may get so bad for the Dems that they may be forced to re-think their position on illegal immigration? In 2018 a few Dem senators in red states will face re-election. Whatever Trump plans to do about illegals could see some of those senators backing him.

Priority 1 - stop the influx (wall and whatever else is necessary)
Priority 2 - deport all the ones in prison, gangs ASAP
Priority 3 - deport those on welfare
Priority 4 - deport those that don’t speak english
The rest should be self sufficient, I don’t know how much I would bother with them. Practically speaking at that point the problem is pretty handled.
