Donald Trump, the 2016 GOP presidential frontrunner who's polling ahead of all his opponents here in New Hampshire, told Breitbart News on Friday morning that America is in dire straits if voters don't elect someone president who can get the nation's immigration crisis under control.
"If somebody great doesn't get in as president, we don't have a country anymore," Trump responded when asked by Breitbart News for his thoughts on recent congressional testimony by border patrol agents that the nation's immigration laws are basically nullified. "We're not going to have a country anymore."
The testimony, as reported by the Washington Examiner's Paul Bedard, found federal agents telling Congress of a "shocking reversal of policy" that has U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents "being told to release illegal immigrants and no longer order them to appear at deportation hearings, essentially a license to stay in the United States."
"We might as well abolish our immigration laws altogether," Brandon Judd, the president of the National Border Patrol Council -- a group that represents Border Patrol agents -- testified before the House Judiciary Committee.
Because of the non-enforcement directives coming from Washington -- ultimately from President Barack Obama, but also from his key administration officials -- Judd added in written testimony, criminals are rewarded.
"In the absence of consequences and enforceable laws innocent people are hurt, criminals are rewarded, chaos abounds, and cartels reap huge financial benefits," Judd wrote to the congressional committee.
Trump is blown away by these non-enforcement directives coming from the White House.
"It's beyond belief, actually," Trump told Breitbart News.

Where are the rest of the followers/fall guys for the next election?
Oh yeah still sticking their fingers in the air wondering what is "safe" and politically correct to talk about.
This is it! Trump's attacking immigrants! His poll numbers will tank now, I tell ya!
TRUMP.....LEADS THE WAY!
IBTTDS
LOL!
Trump seems to have a grasp of what’s happening on many levels in America.
Very insightful. This includes his touch back policy?
Thank God he brought this up - he's the only one to talk about illegals don't cha know.
But Donald, it’s an “act of love”, don’cha know?
Oh I see you still believe in Bushbot lingo of “compassionate” conservative....
How many times are you going to let these Pseudo conservatives fool you? That’s been the strategy since 1992. Look how far our country has drifted to the left.
Oh gosh, I hope he didnt use any profanity when talking about the destruction of our country and culture.
:-)
This is the main reason I support Trump over Cruz. Trump is willing to say and do things that need to be said (like banning muslim immigration) than the other candidates aren’t. He doesn’t care that the commies in the media call him racist for doing so.
Dindus, islamos, illegals and Gibsmedats will rue the day sanity prevails ...

We need some who will kick ass and take names. A President who will enforce our laws.
How many days before Cruz, after first testing the political waters, also makes this an issue.
Looks like sarcasm to me.
LOL!
Someone needs to get their sarcasm meter adjusted.
HOORAY Trump
536 have done NOTHING to stop the invasion. In other words, they have aided and abetted the invasion.
[They] He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontier - list of grievances; Declaration of Independence
Also, there is much INNOCENT American’s blood on the hands of 536
We have MS-13 here in VA also.
Nasty bunch.
Deportation from 30,000 feet would be my solution.
