Trump stated, “Number one, the first thing we do, is get the bad ones out. we have a lot of bad dudes as I said, you have a lot of really bad people here. They’re in our prisons, and they’re clogging up our prisons. I want to them to go back — and not only Mexico, I want to get them back to the country…and I want them to be in their prisons.”
Trump, then stated that he could find these illegal immigrants and “get them out,” a process that he argued is “feasible
He added, “We have to bring great people into this country, okay? And I want to bring — I love the idea of immigration, but it’s got to be legal immigration. Now, a lot of these people are helping us, whether it’s the grapes, or whether it’s jobs, and sometimes it’s jobs, in all fairness, I love our country, but sometimes it’s jobs that a citizen of the United States doesn’t want to do. I mean, there are jobs that a lot of people don’t want to do. I want to move them out, and we’re going to move them back in, and let them be legal, but they have to be in here legally. … Otherwise, you don’t have a country. You don’t have a country, if people can just pour into the country illegally, you don’t have a country, but I would expedite the system.”
Trump elaborated that he would give these illegal immigrants, “Legal status,” not citizenship, but, “later down the line, who knows, what’s going to happen.” He clarified that this meant citizenship would be “something I would think about, but I would say right now no. I’m not open to it. I would say legal status.”

Not too different than GOPe.
I would like to see that illegals, no matter if otherwise law abiding, never qualify for citizenship.
This is the meme he has bought and it's not true as far as I can tell.
Huh?
Trump is not a stellar conservative, he’s a hell of a bomb thrower, but he also has an extensive record of being a liberal. It’s just a question of if those liberal tendencies are going to eventually come forward in this campaign?
“but sometimes it’s jobs that a citizen of the United States doesn’t want to do”
“Jobs Americans Won’t Do”- GW Bush
it was garbage when Dubya said it and it’s still garbage.
No.
I have no need, use, want or desire for illegal aliens to be here for any reason at all, ever.
Not even one.
FUDT.
Yeah that's right I said it.
I think its true in a lot of cases but that doesn’t mean we should “fix” it by bringing in someone else.
We fix it by rebuilding the work ethic of America’s kids. Hell, illegals are getting 3 times what I made working on the farms as a kid in the 80s.
I've heard him restrict that to seasonal agricultural workers. That makes sense, but it's the only thing that might fit into the category of "jobs Americans won't do".
Trump needs stop talking so much and get some of his positions in writing.
I’ve heard more coherent explanations before. I think he said yes, no, and I don’t know, maybe.
Obama just uses teleprompters and I still love being candid, but if he doesn’t know, who will?
“Trump needs stop talking so much and get some of his positions in writing. “
ahh, but that’s the “art” of the deal
PINCH ME when you find a Republican candidate using the word DEPORT for Illegals that are otherwise obeying the law.
Until them, it’s TRUMP ALL THE WAY for me. I’ll take a wall and getting rid of the criminals, that is MORE than Bush-43 did and any other president.
Like he said they gotta go with their parents out of the country.

Oh, yes it is.
In the last election Romney did use “self-deportation”, which Trump didn’t agree with. Trump thought it was too harsh.
I agree. There should be a condition, if you are here illegally and have to be deported, you forfeit any possibility of future legal status or citizenship.

The way we solve the “jobs Americans won’t do issue” is we tell the people on welfare, here is a job. You don’t want the job, no check.
