“I followed the law," Trump said in an interview with Mika Brzezinski aired Wednesday on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," in discussing the hoops she had to jump through in order to become a citizen of the United States. "I never thought to stay here without papers. I had a visa, I traveled every few months back to the country to Slovenia to stamp the visa. I came back, I applied for the green card, I applied for the citizenship later on after many years of green card. So I went by system, I went by the law. And you should do that, you should not just say let me stay here and whatever happens, happens.
Trump, who immigrated to the United States from Slovenia in 1996, said that she and her husband are prepared for people to call him names for expressing his viewpoints. I’m a full-time mom, and I love it.
"We have thick skin, and we know that people will judge him and people will call names. They don’t give him enough credit. From June that he announced, they dont give him enough credit," she said, leading Brzezinski to ask her what she thought about people who felt he insulted Mexicans with his comments that the country is sending rapists and murderers across the border in his announcement speech.
Trump said that she did not feel her husband insulted the Mexican people. He said illegal immigrants. He didn’t talk about everybody. He talked about illegal immigrants, she explained. And after a few weeks, like two weeks [of] giving him a hard time and bashing him in the media, they turned around. They said, you know what, hes right. Hes right what hes talking about. And he opened conversation that nobody did.

Legal immigrants hate illegals….They will vote for Trump
“Legal immigrants hate illegals.They will vote for Trump.”
They would make a most dramatic difference if we could get their stories, like hers, into a mainstream conversation.
I Spent a Lot of Money and a Lot of time and effort to get my Wife a Green Card the LEGAL WAY Many years ago. They can ALL KISS MY ASS as they are leaving.
Anyone want to argue about amnesty? Call me when YOU go through the process.
Melania, Don Jr., Evanka, Eric... huge assets to the Trump campaign.
They don’t want to know...
there are more stories (of the sob type) of illegal aliens than there are of immigrants like she and I...
They lump us all in together and try to make it appear evil is besetting “immigrants” when in reality the law is being enforced against illegal aliens..
As an immigrant I feel that my legal status has been hijacked and that my ID as a real immigrant has been stolen by the illegal aliens...
illegal aliens do not immigrate...
only immigrants immigrate...
Trump got 46% of Latino vote because legal immigrants are really as hurt by illegals as the rest of America.
The huge assests of the gals come from their plastic surgeons.
Don Jr., this guy is talented and very interesting. I somehow stumbled to his Instagram, and spent a little while stalking it. It's all hunting and fishing and skiing with his children and outdoorsy, manly stuff.
Ivanka and Eric are very successful on their own. Ivanka, especially, has tremendous appeal.
Yep, Amen.
Have you grasped a straw yet?
She’s gorgeous, cultured, open.....she’ articulate and intelligent......a devoted wife and mother!!!!
How refreshing to have her in the White House!
May it be so!!!
Pretty good and fair interview by Mika, all things considered.
“Trump got 46% of Latino vote because legal immigrants are really as hurt by illegals as the rest of America.”
Liberals and the MSM are too stupid and bigoted to realize that. Immigrants are actually hurt more by illegals than other communities.
The Trump children are extraordinarily graceful, especially Ivanka. She positively glows when she speaks.
Have you read the article? Melania followed the rules. She’ll be an excellent first lady, and an inspiration for those who are going to be told they have to do things the legal way.
You’re paying attention.
These MSM Uniparty types always support their own.
There is a reason MSNBC is giving them such favorable press.
“Trump always gets divorced. When will he divorce his soft porn, plastic surgery wife?”
The bitterness is slowly migrating deeper and deeper.
