Trump about NAILED IT there. The ‘self-deportation policy’ was a throw-away line when Romney had to get to the right of Huckabee (or someone like him) in Jan, 2012 as his nomination was being threatened.

He then backed away from it, said he never meant it, but the damage was done. The Hispanic Language newspapers RAN WITH IT, right up to November, and Romney had the WORST PERFORMANCE of any Republican in drawing Hispanics, probably ever. Since all of the whites also knew he wasn’t serious about securing the border, it didn’t help there either.

It was a TOTALLY IDIOTIC move and it cost him BIG TIME, maybe cost him the election.

If you say so. I support deportation, including self-deportation - but then, I'm a conservative.
