“....AshLee Strong, a spokeswoman for Walker’s campaign, pushed back against critics who juxtaposed Walker’s comments this week with his 2013 trade trip.

“There is no equivalence between a routine trade mission and honoring the Chinese president with one of the United States’ highest forms of diplomatic flattery,” Strong said in a statement Tuesday. “Rather than high honors and an unnecessary ceremony for President Xi, President Obama should be focused on real engagement. Holding China accountable for its egregious actions doesn’t negate the importance of trade.”

FR Thread Aug 26, 2015:

When Jorge Ramos [Univision] is invited back after being escorted out because he wouldn't stop interrupting, he and Donald Trump had an interesting exchange.

Be sure to watch.

4:48 Video: Donald Trump Confronted by Univision Jorge Ramos at Iowa Press Before Rally Speech "

Donald Trump explains that he will get rid of the gangs [which is the only group he says he will deport (if you've read it) in his plan] and then says to Ramos, "You're going to like this," "I will be humane" "I want them to come back" because "I have a bigger heart than you" - explaining that he will be a good manager and after the good ones get their papers - "I want them to get documentation so that they become legal" - they can come back.

-------------

Now, after all the hype and the headlines, how is this any different from what Scott Walker and Ted Cruz have been saying all along?

Be honest!

As Scott Walker has stated, "going forward" no amnesty, we seal the border (using all options), enforce the laws, remove the magnets (6 months - June 2011- into his 1st term Walker was the first and only governor to revoke instate tuition for illegals, secure jobs for American citizens [legal immigration must also be adjusted down], E-verify and then look at other options. This is about more than illegal immigration, it's about national security.

March 28, 2015: “I made it clear that for me, if somebody wants to be a citizen, they need to go back to their country of origin, get in line, no preferential treatment,” Walker said. “In terms of what to do beyond that, again, that’s something we got to work with Congress on.”

June 20, 2015: 5:00 video Scott Walker Confronted by Undocumented Immigrant Family "Everyone must follow the laws" (watch it).

--------------------

Ted Cruz's exchange with Megyn Kelly last night, again, is similar.

"...what I’ve said is that we should approach immigration in a staged manner. We should start with focusing on areas of bipartisan agreement. Where is there bipartisan agreement? On two major areas. Number one, that we should do everything possible to secure the border and stop illegal immigration. And number two, to improve and streamline legal immigration.”

"......we need to solve the problem. And the way you solve the problem, is you focus where there’s bipartisan agreement first. Once we’ve secured the border, once we’ve actually proven we can do this, once we’ve stop the Obama administration’s policy of releasing 104,000 violent criminal illegal aliens in one year, once we’ve solved that problem, then we can have a debate, then we can have a conversation.”....
