RNC chair Reince Priebus insists Trump is 'not calling for mass deportation'
The Week ^ | Nov. 9, 2016 | Becca Stanek

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.

Nearly everything “Trump Said” was never said by Trump. It’s just like Sarah Palin saying “I can see Russia from my house.” The left makes it up and treats it as gospel.

Rience has been awesome since the nomination. Many here on this thread haven’t been paying attention.

Rience is worthy of the praise. People haven’t been paying attention if they don’t think he is.

He doesnt have to call for mass deportation.

Take away all the benies they are not entitled to....and the will by in large self deport!

SELF DEPORTATION!

That would be the most cost-effective to just let them self-deport after taking away their gov't goodies, or whatever incentives the democrat party makes sure they get, in order to vote for democrats.

Excellent points, all.

It’s gotten so I hate donating to food banks, etc. I’d like to help hungry AMERICANS here. I’m happy to donate to foreign countries for charities, but when you give locally, you’d like the people to be Americans. Glad you included charities too.

On LA radio tonight, people were yelling about “immigrants” and how they are “American too” and they don’t want to be deported.

Real immigrants have nothing to worry about. They won’t be deported unless they overstay a visa or commit a crime.

ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS have no claim here. In no other country would you be allowed to stay. In Mexico you can be thrown into prison.

When my dad and grandparents became American, it was a big deal. They were proud of it. They did something to become American and they were happy and became American. If it means nothing but GimmeDat, you are not American.

I’m more worried about Chris Christie being part of the administration.

Another concern...Newt was on Hannity tonight and his “big idea” for Trump’s first 100 days was a giant infrastructure project that he was sure the Dems would be happy to sign onto in a bipartisan effort. Stimulus...ugh.

Trump will do it. The dictator Obama for now still has power till Jan 20. and this monster is dangerous. For now play it cool , smile, be nice Mr. Trump until Jan 21. Then once we have the power unleash the dogs of war on immigrants , Muslims and liberals and take our country back

All immigrant groups voted at 85% for the most corrupt, evil, hard core communist politician Hillary Clinton. Only one group was the exception and without them Florida would have been lost, Florida’s Cubans.

The media , these immigrants ,Muslims, soros , silicon valley billionaires, the establishment, globalist billionaires etc. all were in the tank for Hillary . These are our enemy. US Americans against them except the exeption above. Trump is one of us .

Christie has Bridgegate problems, which will limit his role. Gingrich needs to reign in his grandiose ideas. Trump outlined his first 100 days and everyone needs to focus on getting that done.

I only call it as I see it. I'm not Cuban but it just does seem like they helped us take Florida. And I do see socialism and Islam and the media and the above mentioned groups all aligned against U.S. the American people and Trump is with us.

As Milton Friedman once said, you don’t get food government by hiring good people. You get good government by making it beneficial to an average person to do good things.

I have no problem with Priebus. He has to be given guidance and watched to make sure he complies. So does everyone in the Trump administration. I’m sure there are plenty of people who followed bad policies and would not subvert the government if they were required to follow the law and act consistent with Trump administration policy.

Of course, some people are way behind the pale and should be fired and prosecuted if possible. People like Koskkinen (sp) at the IRS, Lois Lerner at the IRS, Comey at the FBI, etc.

All immigrants except Cubans voted for the communist Hillary . They , Muslims and the media don’t believe in the same America we do. They are the enemy and have to be deported all except Cubans or they will outnumber us unless the immigration laws are changed for the next election. So we only have 4 years to fix America.

It was stated policy by Obama’s team to build his electoral victory out of voters who were not white males. That meshed with us ideology, of course. As it happened, this stratification of the electorate planted the seeds for the destruction of the Democrat Party.

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

I agree, I figure he will just allow the border patrol to do their jobs to start with and then move to secure the border. That will fix most of the problems we have with illegals.

Trump will do all he says . It’s in his book
https://www.amazon.com/Crippled-America-Make-Great-Again/dp/1501137964

Maybe you all should read it?

The dictator Obama for now still has power till Jan 20. and this monster is dangerous. For now play it cool , smile, be nice Mr. Trump until Jan 21. Then once we have the power unleash the dogs of war on immigrants , Muslims and liberals and take our country back

Again Maybe read The Art of the Deal

It wouldn’t surprise me, I think Trump will try and run as much of his plans at once as he can. THat’s how you really kick start things. For instance start the infrastructure rebuild project at the same time you do the tax cuts and corporate inversion repatriation. Why do it one at a time??

I think things will move very fast.

Mass deportation isn't needed. Enforce the law, seal the border, and set up heavy fines/jail for not using e-veryify for employers and housing and they will self deport in mass. For the stubborn cases we already have a deportation force called ICE.

Nobody’s calling for mass deportations.

All we want are a very large number of individual deportations.
