Trump has been clear that anyone must come in legally. Cruz has said the same.
Trump hasn't been very clear, saying that he wants to expedite them back through a legal process.
Which is not the same thing as saying that they should get on the back of the line and wait the 5 to 10 years to return through the existing legal process.
Trump says they can only come back in legally. Ted your putting words in Donalds mouth.
Nobody is a tough on immigration as Trump. Period.
So, will CRuz change our existing immigration laws, which allows folks to apply to come here LEGALLY (as Trump supports), by EO?
Donald Trump says if heâs elected president, heâd let undocumented workers who are productive stay in the United States, but if they just sponge off the system and donât contribute ⦠heâd have them deported.
Trump tells TMZ, heâd create a âsystem of merit,â saying people here illegally should have âa road to legal statusâ if they work hard and contribute to the country.
Trump also says no one really knows how many people are in the U.S. illegally â he cites different stats that show the figure is somewhere between 11 and 30 million. Trump says itâs unrealistic and inhumane to attempt to deport all of them. Thus, the merit system. He says many undocumented workers are âhardworking peopleâ who deserve a chance to live the American dream.

I GUARANTEE very few of the Trump supporters know this is/was(?) his position.
trump has said touch back amnesty.
Illegals must temporarily leave the country. The “good” ones (variously vaguely described as “hardworking”or “productive,” definitions that Harry Reid could drive a Mack truck through) will be “expedited” back.
I assume trump won’t expedite any criminals or welfare recipients, and that cuts the number roughly in half. They get to jump in line over folks have been waiting years. They don’t go to the back of the line. They are “EXPEDITED.”
And then, he’s stated we gotta give them a path to citizenship.
So, half of 12 to 30 million illegals get expedited back to become citizens.
Above and beyond the people we take through the regular process.
