Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump argued that companies that have severed ties with him “bailed because they want to be politically correct” on Tuesday’s “On the Record” on the Fox News Channel.
Trump said of the companies that have cut ties with him, “why are they coming at me? Because I’m against illegal immigration, because I speak up for the country. I’m against illegal — if you look at it, what’s very simple, illegal immigration, I’m totally opposed to it.
You see what happened in San Francisco with that beautiful young woman who was shot standing with her father by a man that shouldn’t have been here. We threw him out five times and Mexico sends him back in. In my opinion, the Mexican government forced him back in. They force many criminals back into our country and that’s what I’ve been talking about and frankly people have given me great credit for talking about it. I brought a subject to light. But because I’m against illegal immigration, these people bailed because they want to be politically correct. Yeah, I think they’ll be back.”
Trump also responded to a Washington Post story about the workers at one of his hotels in Washington, DC, some of whom came to the country illegally and were now legal, along with others who “quietly acknowledged that they remain in the country illegally.”
While the Trump Organization said, “Our contractors are required to have prospective employees produce documentation that establishes identity and employment eligibility in compliance with immigration law.” And the lead contractor “requires all contractors performing work at the project to follow all applicable federal, state and local laws.”

In the Amerika of today, all it takes is a nasty, threatening letter from MediaMatters, Moveon, LaRaza, or one of the other Soros Cabal-supported groups to fighten a boardint dropping anything remotely conservative.
Looks like Trump knows how to fight and use the press to his advantage..what will be the next subject the GOP establishment does not want to hear?? I like this guy more and more..
Trump also stated, “you have to understand something, a lot of people are saying, and you see it too, they say Trump is the only one that speaks the truth. I’m the one that brought up illegal immigration, this wasn’t even a subject, and I brought it up.
And I brought it up before the young lady was killed, and then that became a big story. But you have thousands of instances where illegal immigrants that come through our porous border are killing our citizens, and lots of other problems they’re bringing with them. And I mean the jails are loaded up, the hospitals are loaded up with people. And it’s a horrible situation, nobody ever brought it up. And then I watch some of the political pundits, and they hate when I bring this up and I sort of say how could they be — aren’t we all on the same side? Look, I have a very, very simple life.
I have a wonderful company. I have a great, great family, all this stuff. But I want to make America great again, that’s more important to me than my company. That’s a very important thing, to make America great again. We will never be great if we keep going like this. We will never be great again as a country. And I have tremendous support. And I think you see that, Greta, in the polls. people are shocked.”
I know, Donald. I know. The majority of politicians are ruled by fear or any implication of threat to their brand, to their bottom line. There is also a market for those who would choose to show courage and faith in their stated belief. We buy things too.
Over the target... Taking flak. The illegals are going to the dustbin of history.
Well, at least he can understand how we feel about our elected politicians!
Trump states: And I brought it up before the young lady was killed, and then that became a big story. But you have thousands of instances where illegal immigrants that come through our porous border are killing our citizens, and lots of other problems they’re bringing with them.
The media can either let the claim stand, or do a fact check on it. Either way, it's a victory for the truth in a hot-button issue that voters are incensed about.
The reason the king has no clothes is because Macy's quit selling them, playing right into our hands.
Please, Donald, keep talking.
Donald Trump to Confederate flag: You’re fired!
Blah, blah, blah.
Yet another pointess anti-Trump screed, from the Cruz dude.
:D
Beware, people....we are in a BANANA REPUBLIC!
America is going into to the dustbin of history.
The fact is you call a lot of names, but you never actually say anything that makes the case for Trump, or deal with the truth if his actions.
In your and Trump’s world Muslims get a free pass to go after those who criticize them. To the left of Hillary.
The fact is you troll Trump threads criticising him, thinking it will help your guy.
You’re pretty transparent.
Being an opportunist is how you get, and stay, rich. Trump isn't going to make the finish line, but he's going to trip a lot of others, less worthy, during the race.
The "Hold your nose and vote." RINOs and their trolls, (Hint, hint.) are losing. Somehow, that's not a bad thing.
It's called Freeping and it's why this site exists, newbie.
I tell the TRUTH about Trump. Sorry to rain on your RINO parade.
You TrumpRINOs never actually serve up any cogent arguments that show why anyone should vote for him. It's all reality TV hype and no substance.
Who is my guy?? I have said all 14 candidates aren't that great. I just think the truth should be out about Trump. He's a liar and he's only running to get attention. He is 0% conservative. He just says things to get attention, and when pressed, you've admitted as much.
Trump got rich because his Father gave him $200 million and 40 years later he still only has about that much. He hasn't even kept up with inflation.
I have repeatedly said I think everyone should look at Trump as a very good candidate, because Trump is standing (quite strongly I might add) for building up our border, and is standing up strongly for American manufacturing.
Those are very concrete, and Trump is alone among all of the candidates in both parties, in standing up for these very important issues. Cruz has however, been strong on our border, I will give you that.
It is you, who are basically saying nothing. All you do is complain.
Blah, blah, blah.
So you admit, Trump is going to take out Cruz, Walker, and others so Jeb can win. At least you know it.
Trump is the biggest RINO, because he only registered as a Republican to run and get attention. In a year or to he will be a Democrat again.
