Marco! Is that you?
He’s said what he wanted to accomplish. He hasn’t said how, and ‘how’ is called a ‘plan.’

No. It’s common sense.
If you haven’t heard that Trump has said most will be allowed back, you’re not paying attention. Why send them away to only take them back? Let them do the paperwork here instead of making a complete disaster out of it.
I wouldn’t vote for Marco. I don’t believe he’s going to do anything to prevent illegals. He’s no better than Obama or Hillary on this issue.
I am currently supporting Trump (I prefer Cruz but I don’t believe it is likely for him.). I believe Trump will act on immigration and the refugee bs so that is one reason I am supporting him. I do believe his plan should be tweaked.
He’s said what he wanted to accomplish. He hasn’t said how, and ‘how’ is called a ‘plan.’
I’ve heard him say that he would send them all back. That is “how.”
Trump has all the right enemies. With all the flak they’re throwing up, he must be over the target.
Treasonous amnesty pimp Hillary Clinton joins treasonous amnesty pimps Bush, Carson and Rubio and lawless traitor Obama in denouncing the constitutional duty of the federal government to defend our nation against hordes of illegal aliens flooding across our porous borders, ie, defend against foreign invasions. It’s an economic, political, criminal and territorial (La Raza) invasion. Will lead to loss of sovereignty, loss of freedom, loss of economic and political stability. Will ultimately lead to major violence and a shooting war.
Foreign labor, ie, cheap labor is slave labor. Nations that allow hordes of foreign laborers in ultimately lose their sovereignty in hostile takeovers. Look at Europe. Nations that don’t defend their borders lose them. In fact, they cease being nations.
“They’re mad they’re going to lose their cheap maids and landscapers.”
And Democrat voters.
There would be traffic jams at the borders without need for an unconstitutional Federal work permit like e-Verify.
It’s very similar to Reagan’s winning plan against the communist evil Empire: take them head-on. We win, they lose.
Build the wall. Secure the borders. Enforce the law. End sanctuary cities. End anchor babies. Immediately arrest and deport those caught entering illegally. Fine or jail the employers knowingly hiring, recruiting, harboring illegal aliens. Jail employers paying them under the table. Immediately arrest and deport all illegal aliens caught working in such cases. Cut off all government aid, handouts and bennies to illegal aliens. No drivers licenses, no social security cards, no bank accounts, no loans, no contracts, no legal standing of any kind to illegal aliens. No jobs, no welfare, no housing, no food stamps, no unemployment insurance, no social security, no healthcare — no prospects whatsoever. Except, offer them a one-way ticket home. Most will take it (and take their families with them). Arrest, jail and then deport all other illegal aliens as they’re caught committing crimes, get traffic tickets, go to the emergency room, etc. Murderers/rapists/violent or repeat offending illegal aliens should serve long sentences before being deported. By the way, Mexico must pay for every illegal alien held in US jails or prisons ($30-40 thousand per year for each alien criminal from Mexico ought to do it). They pay it or we deduct it from their US foreign aid payouts. Either that or we just cut them off completely.

All the right enemies ping...
By the way, President Trump (or Cruz) will have a Republican House and Senate so they should immediately move to impeach and remove all government officials and judges violating their constitutional oaths by impeding the president from carrying out his constitutional duty to defend the nation against foreign invasions
I agree!
Nope.
They know it's a winning issue for Republicans if it survives the primaries.
70% of the White Vote wins in a landslide.
The ones that didn’t report would be automatically deported. The ones that did will begin a process with their nation of origin where they apply to be here. Then an evaluation process of their background and what they’ve done since being here.
Terrible idea

I’m glad that Ted finally stepped up to the plate and delivered an immigration plan. Given that it’s the number one issue facing the country, it’s worried me that he’s taken so long to state what he’ll do about it.
Thanks.
it took a while probably because Ted Cruz doesn’t go off half-cocked, and he wanted to see that his plan had no loopholes, that it was easy for us to understand and feasible for the government to implement.
He is a doer, not a dreamer..nor a blowhard! LOL!
Good to see you! :)
Well, that's one theory, but Ted could have gotten (and should have gotten) in front of the immigration issue five months ago when the primary began. It's the single most important issue to the American people, yet Ted let Donald seize, then own that ground as his own.
It was a huge tactical error, but even more disconcerting (for supporters like me), is why he remained so quiet about immigration over the summer. When he was forced to talk about it, he was vague, at best.
Donald didn't have a position paper on immigration when he announced, but that didn't stop him from telling the world what he intended to do about the problem. Ted nibbled around the edges and was unclear as to what his bedrock positions were for way too long. That dithering hurt him with the voters.
If your theory is correct, then that also speaks badly of Ted's ability to read a fluid situation and formulate an effective response, rapidly. An able executive puts the fundamental blocks of a problem together at light speed, then works to fill in the policy details later.
That's a skill possessed by the best leaders, and much needed in our next President.
Donald shoots from the hip, but Ted is a thoughtful and truly consistent conservative leader; and I trust him at the helm of this great country.
Bluster and braggadocio sound good, but they rarely ever really gets the job done. Trump says a lot of things but has no real practical plan to execute it....other than he wants to “make America great again”.
Plus, I’d rather have Ted Cruz in the White House interacting with our allies than a Donald Trump who you would have to be holding your breath constantly, hoping he didn’t “fire” them...or worse.
But getting rid of obama is the real goal. And anyone who might come along after him who would damage this beautiful country even worse. So I think we’re on the same page, just on different lines of said page. :)
Feels like deja vu all over again, doesn't it?
We had a much beloved patriot warrior who was 'over the target' in 2008, and watched helplessly as she was shot out of formation by the guns of the left. Like one of America's fabled Flying Fortresses, she somehow limped back to base - wounded, but living to fight another day. Even though they couldn't completely bring her down, she never flew with such unrivaled glory again.
It broke our hearts and spirits.
And here we are again - this time with another Flying Eagle - one who's taking massive and unrelenting flak from the enemy, except this time, he's better armored, and outfitted with guns and countermeasures that decimate whoever fires upon him with stunning effectiveness.
How satisfying it is to see at last, an American leader who's flying high and fearless, and destroying the enemies of the republic with bombs composed of The People's pent-up anger and righteous fury!
I smell victory, and it's intoxicating.
