Before Donald Trump, Republican presidential candidates could deflect tough questions on immigration with vague promises to secure the border and oppose all amnesty for illegal immigrants.
Not anymore. Mr. Trump has offered a plan to take back our country from what he calls the rapist-murderer-job stealers being exported from Mexico. He is full of ideas. He would expel 11 million immigrants, and their families, and let only the good ones back in. He would restrict legal immigration, and impose a national job-verification system so that everyone, citizens too, would need federal permission to work. He would build a 2,000-mile border wall and force Mexicans to pay for it. He would replace the Constitutions guarantee of citizenship by birth with citizenship by bloodline and pedigree, leaving it to politicians and bureaucrats to decide what to do with millions of stateless children. He would flood the country with immigration agents and it almost goes without saying dismantle the economy and shred Americas standing as an immigrant-welcoming nation.
You could say the front-running Mr. Trump has put his opponents in a bind. Or you could say he has given them a gift: the opportunity to be specific in return about what they would do to fix the immigration mess. And to be forthright in rejecting his despicable proposals. Because his plan is so naked in its scapegoating of immigrants, its barely subtextual racism, its immense cruelty in seeking to reduce millions of people to poverty and hopelessness it gives his opponents the chance for a very clear moral decision. They can stand up for better values, and against the collective punishment of millions of innocent Americans-in-waiting.

No room at The Bottom Inn, completely filled with liberals and the MSM.
The NYT editorial board ignores the bodies piling up, just like they ignore aborted children.
I would love to read Ted’s ideas on what to do with the 40 Mil.
If the NYTimes is unhappy then they are doing something right.
I read the NYT and The Washington Post yesterday at the doctors office. The WaPo had a story about Hillarys emails on the front page center. Not a word in the NYT.
Who owns NYT?
“If the NYTimes doesnt like it, I LOVE it.”
Exactly!!!!
Coming from the lowly New York Slimes, that's pretty funny.
It's not for nothing that the GOP is called the "stupid party."
The baby killers at the NY Slimes think everyone on Earth should be US citizens? Not all that surprising since the NY slimes is as commy and anti American as you can get.
I would love to read Teds ideas on what to do with the 40 Mil.
So easy to do.. read his book...
OR just go to “YOU TUBE” and put in TED CRUZ...
You can see where Trump gets his ideas FROM..
unless you don’t know how..

I don’t give a damn how Trump got the immigration idea. He has stated what he would do and Trump has it right. He is not afraid to outline the procedure. Go Trump! We must get behind a real American and one that will kick ars right from the word GO. Or America is lost. AZ is already being invaded and the cartel, which is Mexico, has taken the AZ land up to 70 miles and moving. We are at war.
They could pretend to be on our side, while kifing us in the back. Not that most of us were fooled, we just didn't have a better alternative.
Now we do, and if that makes me a racist, well, so be it.
Shouldn’t the attribution be to “The Editorial Bored?”
Thanks for posting what might be viewed on the surface as barfer. Actually, it shows Trump’s great prescience in raising the illegal alien issue because he has made it the primary issue of the pubbie primaries. That shows powerful leadership and persuasive abilities. Although I’m presently a Walker supporter, this leads me to look strongly at Trump.
NYT’s = Here she is, invaders, come an get her! The greatest nation the world has ever seen is here for your taking... COME AN GET HER and have your way with her and ruin her! She is unworthy to remain possessed by the WASPs who developed her wonderous and numerous resources and gave back vast resources to those who dared challenger her devine providence!!!
The NYT is just sore because people are learning that there never should have been “anchor babies” because neither the Constitution nor the 14th Amendment says that children of illegals have citizenship because they were born here. We have been lied to for decades and it has cost taxpayers hundreds of billions to people who have no business being here.
Ping...
The NYT needs to understand that it was Barack Obama and the Dems who created Donald Trump. Trump is the result of a backlash against the Obama own borders policy. Obama has radicalized a large segment of the American electorate. All they had to do is adopt a reasonable immigration policy but no. They had to turn this into a divisive national issue for their own partisan advantage. Now they will pay the price.
