If he does any sort of deal like that it will piss off his base...me included.
Here’s the deal I would do for illegals over 5 years who are upstanding workers and contributors to our society, presuming we want a deal after the criminals are out.
After they pass an English language and Constitution test, and oath, I’d levy a $10,000 illegal entry fine on them, one year to pay. This could raise about $2 billion. These funds would go to building the border wall.
We would encourage Mexico to create a illegal fine loan program, which would go to those who can’t pay.
Everyone would be happy. The former illegals could stay, and we would get our wall, paid by Mexico.
