A week before the GOP nominating convention, Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) made clear he disagrees with presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump’s plan to deport 11 million undocumented immigrants.
“I don’t agree with that. I don’t think rounding up 11 million people A) is the right thing to do, B) would work,” Ryan said during a CNN televised town hall event. “And I don’t think you’d like to see what we’d have to do to the country to do that.”
Ryan and Trump represent two different camps in the Republican Party on the issue of immigration.
Trump is a hardliner who’s called for building a wall along the southern border and deporting everyone in the country here illegally. Ryan has pushed for immigration reform legislation during his congressional career, though he believes the country first needs to secure its border.
“I think you have to secure the border, you have to have reforms that get people out of the shadows and get right with the law and make sure while you are securing the border, you are fixing what’s broken in the legal immigration system,” said Ryan, the GOP’s 2012 vice presidential nominee.
“That to me is an approach that makes sense and it won’t require a round-up or mass deportation.”
If 11 million citizens stopped paying their taxes,Paul, do you think the IRS wouldn’t round them up quickly?
How does Ryan feel about ‘rounding up’ criminals and putting them in prison or jail after a fair trial?
Ryan favors the CHEAP LABOR EXPRESS - the rest is lame justifications.
It’s 40 million of these invaders, NOT 11 million.
And they are illegal aliens, Rino Ryan, NOT undocumented immigrants.
If Paul Ryan ever gets run over by an illegal alien, I will laugh for weeks.
Trump shouldn’t let this rudderless paul ryan weasel anywhere near the Republican convention, hes out to lose just like he couldn’t bring himself to win against brainless biden during the debates,
This reprobate has dreams of playing the old bush boys club game of politics and fashioning himself a spot in the near future for a run, he thinks he now has a most favored status among the globalist elite, like Jeb, he believes its 1989, hes wrong,
The winds have changed direction and this spineless obama worshiping sycophant doesn’t know it yet,
Second, logic dictates there are a hell of a lot more than "11 million" since that number has been thrown around for two decades. The number is more like 40 million ILLEGALS.
Ryan, and people like him belong in prison for rewarding illegal behavior, and what they are trying to do to destroy this country.
CNN gave him an hour.
Doesn’t federal election law require Ryan’s opponent be given the same time/forum?
This is now the party of Trump and if he’s elected illegals are getting their asses deported. End of story.
> Doesn’t federal election law require Ryan’s opponent be given the same time/forum?
Which law are you talking about, the one that applies to people like Ryan, or the one that applies to people like you and me?
Exactly Right!
FUPR!! Open borders amnesty pimp!
Cantorize mooslimb Ryan.... Send the faggot packing ..
Ryan is an idiot.
Operation Wetback was a great success in the 1959’s. Can be a great success again if properly executed. Ryan ignores history.
Paul Ryan is so single-mindedly devoted to slavishly servicing any and all things Muslim, he ought to have his first name legally changed to “Aisha.”
Can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t. Why have borders? Why have ideals? Indeed, why have a nation?
Where the HELL did this RINO Ryan come from. He is NOT a law and order guy. Did he not swear on the Bible to enforce the laws of our Country? Didn’t ALL our representatives do the same....When we do finally deport through law enforcement deport, maybe we can deport Ryan and the cronie rinos that he represents. I got to send money to defeat this twit.
Hard to believe i once stood inches away from him at a church carnival. Getting sick of his crap.
Trump never said he was going to round up all the illegal aliens in the USA.
Ryan has no clue as to how it would work, and it would.
Repatriate the insurgent criminal invading colonists back to their own countries.
CNN Politics✔ @CNNPoliticsPaul Ryan on illegal immigration: "Rounding up 11 million people" won't work #RyanTownHall http://cnn.it/29O5PMK http://cnn.it/29uBjt2
@CNNPolitics @WashingtonDCTea Nice speech: based on a false premise.
Several states have enforced laws and illegals self-deported-Repatriate
Good point. It's all about agenda.
Dem agenda items are a piece of cake for them, anything else Oh how impossible!
Self deportation worked in several states, illegals left, economy got better and unemployment went DOWN!
Donald Trump believes in the rule of law.
