Everybody’s got an opinion.
So back to 2012, Mitt was too aggressive on immigration for Donald? Hmmm....(told you so moment)
He said a LOT of “interesting” things in 2011-12 campaign season.
Who is he ringing for?
Even now Trump says hard-working illegals can stay (according to another thread on FR).
Once again, who is Trump “ringing for”?
The situation has changed quite a bit science 2012!
if it weren’t for trump the media would have buried the illegal killing the woman in San Fran.
If Trump only shines a spotlight on illegals and their criminal behavior that will still have been more than the cowardly republican congress (with the exception of ted cruz) has done in the last 8 years or more.
This shows Trump’s words mean nothing. Taking what he says at face value is a mistake. Thinking he is fighting for this country is wrong.
Guess it’s time to stop sending these bow tie wearing csuckers the $1.50 a week or whatever it is they charge.
NR has devolved into a WASHINGTONIAN centered bird cage liner, every issue sucks worse than the last.
NATIONAL REVIEW, YOU’RE FIRED!!!!
Trump’s tough talk has been about securing the border against illegal entrants, and about how dangerous the border is in many ways. All the above is about illegals already in the US.
But none of that will matter. Trump will win more supporters or not depending on how well he presents the illegal immigration and giveaway trade agreement issues this election cycle. People are listening and he has to make the case this cycle.
No one but Jeff Sessions, that I can think of, has been rock solid and consistent on the illegal immigration issue since W started trying to force it in 2006 (after campaigning against amnesty in 2004).
Expecting Donald Trump to be politically consistent is like expecting Bill Clinton to be faithful to his marital vows.
Maybe Trump is evolving... in a positive direction.
It’s pretty obvious, Trump is in it to peel off support from Cruz.
Which is why Cruz is so careful not to condemn him and piss off his supporters.
But he may have jumped in too early, and he could be passe in another six months.
I care only about Americans. I could care less about “hispanics”.
Why does everyone think that the number one issue among Americans of Hispanic descent is giving amnesty to the tens of millions of illegal aliens here?
Probably to position himself to the right of Perry on the issue.
He's since come out in favor of Amnesty.
Rich Lowry is a flip flopper on the issue like Trump.
Except Lowry has probably been receiving anti-amnesty comments & emails non stop since 2006 but only chooses to bring up the issue every now and then.
Steve King, David Vitter, Jeff Sessions and Mark Krikorian decided on January 1, 2013 (or thereabouts) that they were going to kill congressional amnesty.
All these other people are jumping on the bandwagon.
Look—there is something all of us can do to help America.
Call your Senators and Congressional reps and tell them that you want legislation to end sanctuary towns, cities and states, and if the places refuse to overturn their sanctuary policies, then not one dime of Federal money for anything.
We cannot have some laws followed and some not. That is anarchy.
Also demand a wall be physically built at the Mexican border.
14 years after 9/11 and 44 years after the war on Drugs began, we still have unlimited amounts of drugs and people coming across this border to our detriment.
www.senate.gov
www.house.gov
Look up your reps and call them.
They want this to blow over.
But 2016 is coming, and the entire House and one third of the Senate is up for re-election.
These clowns don’t give a damn about America as long as their pockets are lined, but the thing they fear most is being kicked out of DC and the access to the gravy train.
In another two weeks, they go away for all of August on their recess, and they hope like hell that you won’t be as pissed about the illegals when they come back.
We can’t just let one or two candidates fight the battle.
So get up and call.

I’m still waiting for you to tell me who Trump is a “ringer” for.
