But he said the country should take a different approach with "the other ones" i.e., undocumented immigrants who are already in the country who have "done a good job." "I'm a very big believer in merit system," Trump said. "I have to tell you ... some of these people have been here, they've done a good job. You know, in some cases, sadly, they've been living under the shadows, etc., etc. We have to do something. So whether it's merit or whether it's whatever, but I'm a believer in the merit system. If somebody's been outstanding, we try and work something out.

This is Trump’s, “Act of Love.”
He’s going down the slippery slope.
He won’t be able to please everybody.
Amnesties have always been troublesome. This is not as bad as could be, however. Better this than nothing.
He said they would try to work something out. He also said “or something else.” Some don’t want to become citizens because they would then have to pay taxes.
That leaves less money to send back to their country of origin.
I kinda figured that’s where he was headed. One thing he should factor in is how many we could actually use, and in any event I can’t see the Donald not returning to sender anyone who come here looking for free gender reassignment surgery unless their IQ was also in the stratosphere.
As long as he secures the fense and doesn’t aim to take in the losers, I can be flexible (like I have a choice!).
And he will screw everything up because he will go third party if he’s rejected. He has as much narcissism as obama.
This is Trumps, Act of Love.
Perhaps...but can ANYONE point to a Republican candidate that has actually promised to DEPORT people, beyond those guilty of unrelated crimes?
If not, Trump is no worse than anyone else.
Illegal immigration is a wrecking ball aimed at U.S. taxpayers. Washington needs to get tough and fight for We the People, not for the special interests who want cheap labor and a minority voting bloc.
Secure the boarder
Enforce the laws
Overturn Obamas insane new ICE recommendations for illegal immigrant detention facilities.
Oppose the so-called DREAM Act
His answer for what to do about everyone here now is to make judgments based on the individual with the first question being "how will this person be a benefit to our country"
Trump has always been pro illegal. He called Willard Romney’s self deportation plan too harsh and called for a path to citizenship for illegal alien invaders in 2012.
He is playing people for fools with his new found zeal for border security.
Right - you leave, then come back in on the merit system.
Link?
And there goes his campaign.
Apparently no one has the balls to end the invasion of America.
No, trump, I don’t want a merit system for people who have right to be here.
Thanks.
No. Mr. Trump—NO undocumented aliens, period!
Go Senator Cruz!
You can claim any old crazy thing if you never look at particulars.
That's a real endorsement!
