Don’t come to me and say Trump is the one man to make illegal immigration an issue! It is an insult to the effort put forward by Tom Tancredo who was far more better on the issue than any candidate we have today but none of you would rally to his cause. For all his faults, are people seriously neglecting Pat Buchanan year after year raised the issue? You need to acknowledge that Donald Trump attacked Mitt Romney from the Left barking about how it hurts the Latino vote and told DREAMer activists he hires a lot of illegals in Miami. You talk about the problem of government not enforcing the law, agree but you give the second group of businessmen like Trump a pass for using the cheap labor and like other billionaires they want their illegal workforce so they can have cheap lawn care among other things. And you cannnot blame it on the subcontractor when you’re the one hiring them. I’m with you on illegal immigration but please don’t tell me Trump is the savior with his touchback amnesty scheme. Immigration has been a huge issue for me when Trump was still registered as a Democrat and although welcoming if some of his statements I am convinced he’s not my candidate on that issue or abortion, homosexual marriage, protecting the second amendment, repealing Obamacare, reforming entitlements, or many other issues. We will just have to disagree here.

I too supported those men...

Trump like all businessmen is in it to make money...If the gov't allows it why wouldn't he take advantage of it???

And you cannnot blame it on the subcontractor when you’re the one hiring them.

The contractor hires the subcontractor...The sub contractor's crew is up to the subcontractor...

although welcoming if some of his statements I am convinced he’s not my candidate on that issue or abortion, homosexual marriage, protecting the second amendment, repealing Obamacare, reforming entitlements, or many other issues.

Trump says he will repeal Obamacare...Trump is as pro Second Amendment as any one you know...The only entitlement reform I care about is getting a significant raise in Social Security benefits...This is Trump's position on homo marriage which with everything else, you are consistently wrong...

Marriage : Trump has been a consistent opponent of marriage equality. He said that he opposed it because he was a “traditional” guy, choosing to support domestic partnership benefits instead. Trump later reversed himself and said he also opposed civil unions. Despite a brief flirtation with “evolving” in 2013, Trump has consistently maintained his opposition to marriage equality, sometimes by citing polling and making an analogy to his dislike of long golf putters. After the Supreme Court ruling, Trump said the court had made its decision and, although he disagreed with the ruling, he did not support a constitutional amendment that would allow states to re-ban marriage equality. He later said he would appoint Supreme Court judges who would be committed to overturning the ruling.

And like Ronald Reagan, Trump has flip flopped on abortion...

Donald Trump shocked attendees at the conservative CPAC conference in February when he declared himself pro-life after years of supporting the pro-abortion position. Several months ago, when questioned about his position, Trump responded by saying the public "would be surprised" by his stance and, in an interview with Laura Ingraham from Fox News leading up to the conference, Trump characterized himself as "pro-life" and he repeated that apparent reversal when he told the audience at CPAC, "I am pro-life" and pledged to fight for the reversal of ObamaCare, which contains abortion funding loopholes.

And now that you have misrepresented Trump again, I am curious what other of his positions you don't like...Bringing jobs back to America??? You don't like Trump stopping muzlim terrorists from entering our country???
