Give the illegal aliens one year to sell all their personal property and leave then deport them and seize their property and sell it.

I agree. Walk into Western Union to wire money back to Mehicho, hand the cash over to the clerk who runs the sender’s status thru the database. Come up illegal and it’s “Here is your receipt for your contribution to the Border Wall Project”. No tax, if you’re illegal it’s “confiscate”. Don’t like them odds? Go home.

Legal residents just pay the normal transfer fee.

I believe he did in his speech last night. It was always our immigration policy to deny welfare to immigrants, and Trump did say that.

What about a graphic that uses the term American Renaissance plus wall and Trump 2016. Anyone game? It could identity the new era exiting The Age of Treason into the Renaissance

Tax on remittances, and policing bogus EIC claims by illegals.

Seized cash from drug cartel types works fine. Great idea.

Cutting off their welfare, medical and schooling would do much more to deter illegals than a wall, which will never get funded or built, by the way.

Can you reveal to us the source of this information that the wall will never be funded or built? Was it from a Republican or a Democrat? Perhaps from one of the MSM pundits?

And more think panels. Then they hire lobbyists for multiple 5 year studies, then they develop a committee, maybe a whole new agency.

It was from my opinion that Congress will never approve funding for such a thing. They are too beholden to the Hispanic base, which is a growing voting bloc. Trump is just saying what he knows people want to hear. The VA will not change one iota, thanks to government union labor laws. He won't get a dollar for a wall or to deport 11 million people. It's pie in the sky stuff.

I wish he could. You wish he could. But he will run up against D.C. bureaucracy and government unions and be shut down. Because they've designed it that way.

Everybody crossing the border pays 5 bucks. Everytime. Cash.

Wall just got taller. Simple. All goods coming from Mexico...tariff. Trade deficit with Mejico just disappeared.

Wall just got taller that tall.

Pretty soon Mexico will decide that they would rather just pay for the damn wall than have all their citizen bottled up in Mexico and all their goods rusting and rotting.

Wall is paid for.

Heck, this is the perfect place to use “civil forfeiture,” too. If you knowingly use illegal aliens to clean your big movie star home, gardens or yacht, your home, your garden and your yacht become ours.

I don't think you know how civil asset forfeiture works. The word "knowingly" is the give-away.

In a civil asset forfeiture case, the PROPERTY is charged with a crime. The guilt or innocence of the owner is not an issue. So whether you knowingly or unknowingly hire an illegal is not relevant.

That, along with the perverse incentive of allowing seizing agencies to keep the loot, is the problem with using civil asset forfeiture to fight the stupid drug war.

At that rate the remittances stop being wired and they’ll risk mailing cash.

In the ninth point, Trump laid out how he will turn off the economic magnet for illegal immigration. He called for E-Verify and for the enforcement of blocking any illegal aliens from access to government benefits. He said:

We will ensure that E-Verify is used to the fullest extent possible under existing law, and will work with Congress to strengthen and expand its use across the country. Immigration law doesn’t exist just for the purpose of keeping out criminals. It exists to protect all aspects of American life – the worksite, the welfare office, the education system and much else. That is why immigration limits are established in the first place. If we only enforce the laws against crime, then we have an open border to the entire world. I will enforce all of our immigration laws. The same goes for government benefits. The Center for Immigration Studies estimates that 62 percent of households headed by illegal immigrants used some form of cash or non-cash welfare programs, like food stamps or housing assistance. This directly violates the federal public charge law designed to protect the U.S. treasury. Those who abuse our welfare system will be priorities for removal.

Well Lizavetta, you may be entirely correct, but I believe Trump has proven over the course of his career that when he wants to achieve a particular goal he has an uncanny way of making it happen. So even though, as you point out, the obstacles are great, I firmly believe that Trump intends to accomplish the goals he has set forth in his campaign, and that he will do so.
