The illegal alien invasion is like America getting a bad dose of “the crabs”.

Illegal immigration has caused much of our ills and I’m glad people are starting to understand why. First order of business - seal the border and cut off the freebies. Next kill the anchor babies clause then bootthe La Raza actvist grops and their illegal members back over the border. They have no business demanding anything and threatening our lives over here.

Pinal County, Arizona Sheriff Babeu took Ben Carson on a helicopter tour of the Smugglers super highway across the desert and mountains here. While they were in the air, Deputies stopped a van with seven or eight Mexican citizens hauling several hundred pound of drugs.
Trump gets it. I think Carson gets it. I suspect the others are just giving lip service to it.

The problem is that no sweeping plan is going to make it past congress and executive fiat isn’t going to fly if the executive isn’t a democrat.

In fact, a republican who tries to “rule” through executive fiat will be impeached.

Better to elect someone who will start with securing the border and enforcing existing law. Once those things are done we can move forward.

The reason I dropped Cruz as my first choice was because of his wanting to increase H-1B visas by 500%. Also, his vote for TPA. Those are 2 serious issues that harm our country.

This was my 3rd reason for supporting Trump over Cruz. He went with Beck to the border to deliver soccer balls and teddy bears. He is a sitting U.S. Senator, and can tour the border any time he wishes. He didn’t have to hook up with Beck. So, I secretly suspected that Beck is Cruz’s mouthpiece to destroy Trump. Cruz won’t do it himself, but, have Beck do the dirty work for him. I have no proof ot his - just a deep, gut feeling.

I’m still trying to make a decison between the two. Cruz has not been pounding the skulls of liberals like Trump but I’m not sure if he’s just all mouth and no do. I know his past record is to nit follow through but he does seem more energized and focused this time and he is saying what needs to be said and even the Democrats know he’s right.

I don’t care if they come down on me. It’s my decision and my reasoning. Jim allows open debate - so, I’ve said nothing to get banned for.

'enforcing existing law' - - enforce E-Verify and ARREST those employers who aren't using E-Verify or are lax.

Most of Trump’s plan would not need Congress to pass anything, it is a matter of enforcing existing law.

Lots of doubletalk coming out of trump though. He talks about cutting H1b visas at the same time he talks about the need for foreign workers.



Here you see Ted Cruz talking about his H1b visa proposal on the senate floor. He sets some very high hurdles, some of them exactly what Trump parrots today.

Sen. Cruz Amendment to Immigration Legislation to Increase H-1B Visas

While some like to screech about 500%, that's a cap that is around 360,000. TwelveOfTwenty nailed it in this thread about stupid college courses.

This should be forwarded to every Congress critter, particularly the Republicans, who talk about immigration reform at election time and then do absolutely nothing about it.

Trump is Boehner and McConnell’s worst nightmare. For that reason alone, he should be supported.

I hope there’s a way to incorporate into his plan some kind of a checkpoint at Western Union and similar outlets to prevent money made here to be sent back to the home countries. Once that connection can be severed, people might actually decide to leave here.

“It’s too soon to know who’s going to be the GOP nominee in 2016, but whatever happens, conservatives owe a debt of thanks to Donald Trump for changing the debate on immigration. For too long, the discussion about immigration policy has been dominated by representatives of billionaires who want cheap labor and Democrats who want more voters. Thanks to Donald Trump, the American people are finally getting a seat at the table.”

I agree whole-heartedly. While Trump is no Cruz as far as a deeply thought out conservative philosophy is concerned, no other candidate but Trump could have drawn national attention to immigration issues. Kudos, Trump.

Israel is under fire and has now attacked Syria.....N&S Korea exchanging fire.......N.Korea has closed outside communications and shut down their internet access........DJIA falling like a stone 700 points in 2 days......PP dissecting and selling live babies..........Russia & China commence the “largest ever joint naval exercises.”

And the big news stories are Rubio’s “Anchor Baby” comment, and the Pope shilling for the Obama administration.

Have Americans completely lost their minds and fail to understand that the number one catastrophe affecting their nation squats in the White Hut?

What has a Republican majority in Congress meant to correcting the evil in America? Nothing!
