I think if they show they had gotten a work number and for years they were paying taxes they might be allowed to legally enter, but I think that number is less than 5% of them.
Trump did say he’ll let the “good” illegal immigrants back in.
Yes, I agree, we need to put legal citizens to work, but, we need workers who are trained or willing to be trained. Welding and pipe fitting are not OJT jobs. All that is needed is basic elementary math skills and willingness to learn for a good paying job and a willingness to actually work and not be strung out on drugs or on the smart phone doing facebook. That is what this country is facing today, unskilled, untrained applicants afraid and unwilling to get their hands dirty.
Fluent reverse Mondalese.
Oh it is a problem because the educators in this country say you have to go to college, you need a degree. We need to inform young people when in their first or second year of HS what is available out there as far as jobs are concerned, what skills they need and allow these kids to train and use tools in shop classes. You can’t teach kids that today because of laws that won’t allow them to handle a grinder, saws,cutting torches etc. Hell ya gotta be 18 in most states just to run a deep fryer at mickey d’s. If we could teach these kids the fundamentals of skilled trade and how they are applied, they could be working as 1st class helpers right out of high school. By the sophomore years kids know if they are going to college or not and if they know they aren’t , many give up on school and go to the streets. We need to teach them how to be a skilled worker with a trade when they are still reachable.
I agree with all you wrote :)
“Then Cruz is your man, since he was talking about a wall when Trump was hosting a reality show.”
Don’t get me wrong, Cruz, like Trump, is a GREAT GUY - it’s just that Trump has made national security the centerpiece of THIS campaign.
By the way, the easiest way to tell a Rubio (or Kasich, or Carly, or Bush) supporter who CLAIMS to be a Cruz supporter is to see how they treat Trump. If they treat Trump with respect, then they are true Cruz supporters - if not, then they are just hiding behind Cruz to attack Trump.
Cruz has always talked about Jesus, about his faith, its very natural true real and unforced and genuine
I only started hearing Santorum talking about Jesus when he started running for President last go round.
Never heard him mention Jesus while he trashed Sarah Palin on Fox news some years ago, never heard him talking about Jesus when he voted for Arlen Specter over Toomey
What Trump has done is to be loud and draw attention to himself. It’s what he does, and what he thrives on.
Cruz was focused on national security before Trump ever gave it a thought.
Allow me to shred your theory about “true Cruz supporters.”
I’ve supported Cruz from the beginning because I won’t sell out my conservative principles.
I have zero use for Rubio, Kasich, Fiorina, and Bush. Can’t stand them. Same for Trump, that big government progressive statist.
Respect must be earned, and Trump has done nothing to earn mine. Unlike some of the folks who were against him in 2011, you won’t see me doing a 180. He’s the same progressive he always was, so my view of him will remain the same.
“If the political head winds threaten his career advancement he displays remarkable flexibly on just about any issue”
As long as Trump LEADS, he gets my support. If others would step out a bit, rather than make Trump take all the arrows, I’d be more inclined to maybe support others.
As to our assessment of people that take personal shots at Trump, I stand by it.
You keep posting your pictures as if they are an indication of support by implying huge Trump crowds and small Cruz crowds. Unfortunately, your pictures have already been debunked, but two can play at that game.
Here are some pics of huge Cruz crowds and small Trump crowds. I guess Cruz’s support must be much larger than you imply, while Trump’s support isn’t quite as strong as you indicate.
