Recent media coverage on Donald Trumps immigration policies have attempted to convince his supporters that he is flip flopping on his original deportation policies and moving to a softer tone.
This has caused a stir among many of Trumps core supporters, adding to the speculation that he is caving to pressure from his own party to keep the cheap labor express moving full speed ahead.
Trump spoke to a crowd of about 2,000 at the Roast and Ride event in Des Moines, Iowa today. Joni Earnest, a veteran and senator from Iowa who was once thought to be a possible Trump vice president pick, was also in attendance.
Perhaps the Trump campaign has been receiving some feedback from his core supporters after the slew of media reports regarding his softening of immigration policies, as he sought to reinforce the fact that he stands behind his original promise to America.
Trump made clear his intentions regarding illegal immigration and criminals entering the United States as he told the crowd:
On day one, I am going to begin swiftly removing criminal illegal immigrants from this country. Including removing the hundreds of thousands of criminal illegal immigrants that have been released into U.S. communities under the incompetent Obama-Clinton Administration
Trump continues to state that even before the wall goes up he is going to take action on illegal immigration. He also references the international gangs of thugs, and drug cartels taking advantage of Americas open borders:
I promise you, the first day in office, the first thing Im going to do, the first piece of paper that Im going to sign is were going to get rid of these people, day one, before the wall, before anything, and our great law enforcement they know who they are, theyve been living with them for years and dont want to put up with them anymore. So we are going to get rid of them DAY ONE.
Trump continues by saying that, the reign of terror will be over. He makes several references to the criminal element crossing our borders, including possible terrorists and drug cartels, making sure that law enforcement is not being hindered in their efforts.
A powerful message straight to his core supporters, Donald Trump has made clear his intentions on day one of his presidency and vowed to enable law enforcement to do their jobs.
We are going to get rid of them day one, we start day one! Trump said to wild applause from the audience.
Although some Trump supporters have been suspicious of the promotion within his campaign of former Cruz employee Kellyanne Conway, the recent refocusing of his messaging seems to be paying off as he has made up significant ground against Clinton in the polls.
Donald Trump has also stayed focused on his messaging, policies and has not engaged in any off cuff remarks that previously caused a media firestorm.
I believe Trump when he makes this promise to America, as he is not being influenced by massive campaign donations from corporations who benefit from illegal immigration, and has taken risks in running for president that the average businessman would consider insane.
Despite the mainstream media spinning headlines to discourage Trump supporters at every turn; their enthusiasm, hope and dedication to his movement have kept voters confident that he can, and will, Make America Great Again.
See Trumps full speech in Des Moines, Iowa below:
If he keeps this up for another 2 months, he'll have no problem convincing the undecided voters that he is the right man for the job.
Trump will win IA.
Trump is working hard to get elected meanwhile Hillary is taking a nap.
But what about swiftly removing criminal ex-Secretaries of State on Day 1?
Well, y'know, after getting that security briefing today, and checking the 'donations' to the Clinton Foundation, it was hard work making sure her peeps got the, uh, low down, knowwhatImean?
Priorities! Street criminals day one, government sleaze day two!
I think he said “No More welfare for illegal aliens”!! Did I hear that ? Oh God, Trump wins now!!
She's not napping she's changing her catheter bag.
He's our "trump" card in this election game.
Head ‘em up, move ‘em out, Rawhide!
He’ll be working on the list of illegal criminals to deport and it will be easy because they’ll all be waiting around for their Obama pardons.
Listening to this Iowa speech right now (on You
Tube).....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0_EWJivooQ - great speech and great crowd. The mom of the young lady killed by an illegal alien is speaking now. Heart tugging.
Practically speaking, just booting the criminals is not easy, precisely because the Mexican government has no place to put them, so if just kicked across the border, they immediately join the cartels. A problem for us.
The best solution is to build detention facilities under the auspices of ICE, right next to the border, to “hold” the criminals, under customs authority, until Mexico is ready to take them back.
Customs authority is weird. If you’ve seen the Tom Hanks movie The Terminal, he was essentially stuck in limbo in a customs area. Importantly, there is no habeus corpus in customs areas.
That these detention facilities are effectively prisons, even though these *former* criminals have no outstanding crimes against them, and are just waiting for deportation.
This means they are not walking on American streets, and committing more crimes. Nor are they forming or participating in gang activities.
And even if Mexico suddenly says, “send them all back”, we can delay their return for months or years with paperwork.
Finally, years ago Arizona had a great trick. It put illegals on chartered 747s, with a direct flight to Mexico City. Which is almost 1,000 miles away from the US border. Darned few of them ever came back to the US.
Whenever a politician tells me what he’s going to do on “day one,” I cringe.
precisely because the Mexican government has no place to put them” /???
I see no reason why we can’t just fly them all down to Mexico City and DUMP THEM THERE, Just like the Illegals are dumped here.
The real question is, is Donald Trump a student of history and will he use what was historically a common practice, namely telling the Judiciary to GO POUND SOUND, good luck enforcing your order. See Andrew Jackson, That is precisely how he abolished the 2nd Central Bank and PAID OFF the National Debt for the Last Time in History.
Glad to hear he made that clear again.
Kicking out the criminal aliens even if MX isn’t “ready” for them (they’ll NEVER admit to being “ready” for them) will not be a problem for us if the border is secured and the BP is allowed to do its job.
I think he said No More welfare for illegal aliens!! Did I hear that ? Oh God, Trump wins now!!
In his Immigration Position paper on his site, there are no gov bennies for legal immigrations. I would assume that of course means for illegals too. Will have to listen to this.
We can start charging Mexico...tie it to NAFTA....
Trump will make a deal with Mexico.
