OK. Let’s say he is right and nothing Trump says on immigration ever happens. Hypothetical.
The more important point to me is this issue crystalizes how Trump thinks and responds on such “sacred rail” issues. I think Trump’s mindset on this immigration issue might be very well be extensible to other issues.
All you have to do is take the 1.5 billion dollars already allocated in 2006 to build the wall, and tell illegals
that if they leave before the wall goes up they won’t be arrested and forced to leave, they can just load up their cars and get in a traffic jam to the south San Diego border
back to Mexico.
They will self deport. Feds could cull the welfare rolls and SS rolls and find the cheats and send them a warning instead of a check.
Watch them wetbacks scurry back to Mexico.
