He is not lying
“Fred supports attrition”
you have a link for that?
Romney is the only one I heard talking about deportations by attrition.
He didn’t use the word attrition, but that’s what this is.
Attrition-a wearing down or weakening of resistance, esp. as a result of continuous pressure or harassment: The enemy surrounded the town and conducted a war of attrition.

I think most people feel disillusioned after 1986 when we had this deal offered to them before, and now were insisting that, you know, we solve the security problem first, and then well talk about what to do with regard to other things - certainly no amnesty or nothing blanket like that.
If we can make it nearly impossible for an invader to get a job and give the border patrol the authority and resources to arrest illegals and send them back where they came from, more than half the battle will have been won.”
I’m taking a self imposed vacation from the bickering on this forum, but I can’t sit back and let this one go:
Fred mentions the actual word attrition here:

Fred clearly espouses the idea of attrition without using the word here:

Back to my vacation now.
