Failed ‘Gang of Eight’ architect Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) 79%said on Sunday that frontrunner Donald Trump’s immigration plan to put Americans ahead of foreign workers and alien criminals “makes no sense.”
“No, his rhetoric is a little louder, but if you think about where he was six months ago, his position on immigration six months ago was nothing like what he’s saying now, and even what he’s saying now borders on the absurd,” Rubio said on CNN’s State of the Union.
“He’s going to deport all these people, and then he’s going to allow back in the ones that are good… His plan makes no sense,” Rubio insisted.
Advocates of extreme levels of immigration, including Rubio, frequently claim that enforcement of existing law is impossible. That claim complements their donors’ high-immigration, low-wage agendas.
But 8 U.S. Code § 1227 makes it clear aliens can be deported for a wide variety of violations. If they helped other aliens enter the country, commit a crime that requires a sentence longer than a year, are convicted of any drug-related sentence besides possessing less than 30 grams of marijuana, a violent domestic crime, et cetera they might as well have slapped a “Return to Sender” label on their foreheads.
Enforcement is popular, so Rubio declared during the first GOP primary debate “we need a fence” on the border. In 2013, however, Rubio himself voted against a border fence and an entry-exit tracking system for aliens holding U.S. visas during the debate over the Gang of Eight bill.

He needs to look at a map. That would be one heck of a wall……….
Better to secure the border with more check points and highway patrolmen, IMHO…………..
Rubio probably doesn’t believe Operation Wetback was possible either.
It will be a real pleasure to watch this squeaky voiced little amnesty shill stand next to Trump in the debate and sweat bullets. Before the night is over, Trump will have him peeing his pants.
Depends on which side of the wall you prefer to live.JMHO!
Why? I’d like to know how protecting America for Americans doesn’t make sense.
Please explain.
To an open borders fraud like Roofio, of course securing our nation would make no sense.
“No show” Rubio is not even eligible, but pretends
otherwise as he protects Obama, al Qaeda, Mexico
and criminal illegals.
FUMR
Of course there is no reason to build a wall where the terrain makes the area impassable by natural topography. However, a wall is a very good solution in most areas. The wall would also be equipped with state of the art technology.
Limbaugh is still kissing this guy’s butt.
Forget the wall. Expand asset forfeiture laws to include the hiring of illegals. Then, make it so that local law enforcement can seize the assets if a single illegal is hired even to be a grass cutter (seize the assets of the landscape owner and the property owner).
Do that, and the Chamber of Commerce will fly the illegals home on their dime to reduce the risk of accidentally hiring one.
Once the illegals become anathema here, they will go home or go to Canada.
Don’t ask me. I like Trump’s plan and think Rubio is an idiot.
Hmm,
Trump,Cruz: The Citizens Lives Matter
Rubio: Criminal Invaders Lives matter
Tough choice huh?
Rush needs to get over that. This guy is not acting in the best interest of the country. He’s a sellout.
Gee Marco, how do you know unless you try?
So far, you and your Congressional Politico Buddies running America into the ground haven’t even given it a shot.
Exactly. That’s why we go after Rubio full-bore when mommy and daddy pull Jebby out.
Not really. Would not even be close to the largest.
That honor goes to India. It is up and working so well they are building another on the other side of the country. Which when finished will also be larger then the Trump wall.
Your candidacy makes no sense. Get lost.
Just stop all the programs that give them free stuff. They’ll not only leave they will stop coming.
