Thank you for pointing out Trump’s 2012 comments. Of course, you are doing so on a website where posters used to get banned for hammering on the open-border issue. Times change - and so do opinions.
They certainly do with some people. And that is my biggest fear of Trump. That he will change his opinions back AGAIN to where they were just 3 1/2 years ago. He has stated so many differing thoughts over so many differing years. how do we know what he actually believes? Seriously, how do we know?
What is to keep him after the election from saying - "You know that wall business with Mexico? I have formed an agreement with my democrat friends in the congress to add more security, and enforce the laws on the books, and that is my definition of WINNING on this issue. I cut a GREAT deal! The entire wall business was of course just posturing to enable me to make a better deal. A winning, GREAT deal! I did it. Of course you guys who supported me understand that, right?"
