Erik, I was flat out lied to last night. I was assured Walker hand changed his tune on immigration. I was assured he was going to make them all go home. I said it seemed to me it took him 15 years to come to the right decision of that was correct. And then we find out it wasn’t correct.
So you tell me who is to be trusted. Here:
LISTEN! This from March 1st, 2015
10:20 in this video
Scott is asked if illegal pay a fine, if they can stay.
Listen to his garbled answer yourself. He says he believes a way can be found to do that.
I have been highly suspicious of the claim he changed his mind. I’m glad I was.

When faced with real situations (not hypotheticals) Walker always implemented conservatism! He removed in-state tuition for illegals. He barred sanctuary cities.
So, as a governor of a Midwest state, that does not have a massive illegal problem or border, he always did the right thing when the issue came to the fore.
Walker was not going to fall into the trap set in that interview to say illegals cannot stay. Then, he would be tarred as supporting mass deportations....something no candidate supports.
Even Cruz supports work permits for illegals and sending them to the back of the line for citizenship.
His comments were that he was open to the idea of working something out with a fine. But he also made clear that they do not get citizenship...just like Cruz. Something you conveniently omitted.
I totally trust him on this issue as much as I trust Cruz on this issue.....except Cruz has no real record on immigration as he has not had to do anything except make speeches and offer amendments.
Walker did things.
You've been caught lying before, you should have no credibility here.
