He could win on this alone.

Yes. I remain cautiously optimistic on Donald Trump, but this plan wins major points from me.

He could win on this, because how do the democrats, leftists and socialists (how I repeat myself) defend illegal immigration? They won't even use the term. They can scream racism all they want (though I forget when citizenship status became a race) but that will wear thin, especially if Trump doesn't back down in the face of it.

But he’s also apparently left a hole for nearly 30 million otherwise-not-convicted illegals to stay here—and through chain migration multiply to 90 million.

No he didn't. He said plainly (to Chuck Todd) that the illegals have to go. And item #2 plainly says to enforce all laws, and that includes all immigration laws which includes deportation of illegal aliens.

Best to say it that way than to unnecessarily talk about deportation as a separate policy. It's not a separate thing; it's the law and has been for years.

It would also work very well. If they had no means of support and no support system with the very fear that they could be arrested and deported at any time in any encounter....most would voluntarily leave.
I’ve been saying that for years.

I understand Trump wants every illegal deported. If they have young kids anchor babies, the entire family must leave together!

That's the law now. We can deport children under 21 even if they are born in the US. The US citizen children can only stay if there is a designated guardian. We should use the term "repatriation" rather than deportation. We are sending them back home.

Yes, especially if we enlist state and local law enforcement to help enforce the laws.

A child born in United States from an illegal immigrant criminal can not be legal.

NO OTHER COUNTRY IS SO STUPID AS UNITED STATES TO ALLOW ANCHOR BABIES. If necessary, Amendments to constitution can be done, but I hope that will not be necessary and self preservation will prevail. Why does the country want to commit suicide?

Ok, I read all his points, but I have a problem with them, they are NOT SPECIFIC. For example, I have a neighbor, 2 houses over, named Jose Gualcosierra who speaks with a slight Spanish accent. Maybe he’s legal, maybe not. The point is that NOWHERE in Trump’s position paper is Mr. Gualcosierra’s name mentioned. Therefore Trump is not being SPECIFIC with his plans...he needs to mention Mr. Gualcosierra, otherwise he’s simply a tool for Hillary.

they didn’t just materialize out of the air.. they were born in another country.. they can just go back home to their own country..

Self-deportation can work. It may cost us a bit of cash. Require proof of citizenship for all the freebies and for employment. When they say they don't have it, the clerk/employer can hand them a leaflet with places and times where the USA is generously offering free one-way flights to their home country.

Oh, and throw in a "I illegally entered the USA and all I got was this lousy t-shirt" t-shirt.

You are incorrect. Trump wants EVERY illegal to leave the United States first. In any language that is DEPORTATION!

Trump will consider some of them to return if found useful to USA.

Cruz is still my #1, but Trump is impressing the hell out of me.

At that time the framers never envisioned millions of illegals running over her to have a baby and collect welfare.

“If Trump stands strong on this, he will be the next President.”

Agree, and considering that he has yet to back off of anything - might you know if he’s accepting resumes yet. I think my FR history more than qualifies me for any political job with him.

The easy way to do that is through state funding. Make it a requirement. Then the states hand the edict down to the counties, and the counties to the cities all based on funding.

This really is all simple. The politicians make it all sound much harder than it is because they don’t want them gone. They would lose entire districts and reps based on population.

Is e-verify in Trump’s plan? I didn’t see it.

I saw e-verify working with my own eyes. When Sheriff Arpaio implemented those policies in Maricopa county, my neighborhood literally emptied out over several months. They fled like the cucarachas they are. No one forces them to deprt, they did it on their own. And now that Arpaio has been targeted by the Regime and the Regime’s crooked courts, they have come back in droves. Not so much cucarachas anymore, but more like a plague of locusts. And crime has shot up tenfold around here in the past 3 years.

You are a permanent pessimist. In your world nothing good will ever happen to United States. Liberal Judges eventually die. They can be replaced by judges who will follow the constitution and INTERPRET law, not MAKE law.

“Securing the southern boarder...”

You’ll find a lot of “southern boarders” here:

Just having fun - I made the same mistake and heard from others about it.

It would take a constitutional amendment to change anchor babies. It shouldn’t, but there is no chance in hell that the current Supreme Court would allow anchor babies to end without a very tightly worded constitutional amendment.
