Donald Trump on Monday did not refute a report claiming he told The New York Times editorial board in an off-the-record meeting that his immigration views are in fact more flexible than he has made them seem throughout his presidential campaign.
"Everything is negotiable," Trump said Monday on Fox News, responding to a question about whether the report, which undermines Trump's hardline stance on immigration, was accurate.

A year from now, if Donald Trump has not started to do all these things out of the shoot, you can say “I told you so.”
I’m amazed at the stupidty of some who don’t realize that even when a presidential candidate lays out a blueprint for what they want to accomplish - they have to negotiate with Congress. The Senate and House work up a bill for what the president wants, then present it to him. He either signs it or vetoes it, or sends it back to add or subtract items he does or doesn’t want in the bill. This is what Trump means by negotiating. And, yes,he has to get along with PElosi - she is the Democratic head of the House and will need them on baord for passage of bills. Geesh, I get so tired of the political morons on this board. (not referring to you).
Much like our current president Mr Trump believe that once he’s elected he is not the presiding officer of the nation. No it is his to reign since I’m sure I’ll be disputed he has described the presidency as a such himself. I must assume he actually knows what the word means and used it as it was meant to be used.
I guess the entire appropriations process changed and no one told all of us
No offense sir, truly but you set a very low bar
Some people , “conservatives” and other tools , seem to discover the hot water .
There are principles , reality , and .....human intelligence , wishes and what can be done ....
Dude! You’ve been fixated on David Duke all dam day.
You must love him long time. :)
Lie of omission;
“Also known as a continuing misrepresentation, a lie by omission occurs when an important fact is left out in order to foster a misconception. Lying by omission includes failures to correct pre-existing misconceptions.”
As I stated at the press conference on Friday regarding David Duke- I disavow. pic.twitter.com/OIXFKPUlz2— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 28, 2016
Answer;@DonaldJTrumpJr Thanks for having Guts to publicly reject KKK & White Supremacist Support! Now what about @realDonaldTrump Rejecting Them??— san (@sanosbo1) February 28, 2016
My pleasure. I've heard my father say the same thing 10 times in 48 hours. Media keeps wanting a different answer. https://t.co/dNsuqveQys— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) February 28, 2016
disappointing.
and if Trump has to give a little on other issues to get the wall, that would be negotiating.
his lead is overwhelming, I like Cruz a lot but feel he got a little desperate towards the end. He’ll still be young in ‘24.
How big the door is and who comes through it however, is.
Enjoy the ride to disillusionment. It's a hard landing.
Yes in ‘24, Cruz will be wiser, more experienced, and more formidable a candidate.
You miss the point just like so many others have. It isn’t David Duke this issue instead Mr Trump contradicted himself with such ease. Of course he has done so many times for instance stating he never settle the case in court well actually settled out of court quite often.
I suggest you vote your candidate.. I’ll vote mine.
Yeah.. I hear you.
I believe Trump will accomplish far more than most of the "political morons" can imagine.
What lie are you inventing?
Isn’t that what the GOPe does?
BOOM
FWIW...maybe you don't spend enough time with us "little folk" who are voting fodder for the Republican elite. The party is OVER if the nomination is stolen from Trump, or the elite work against his election. Want numbers? Jeb's numbers pretty much indicate how hated the puppetmasters are outside of DC.
Can one of the Trump supporters explain to us why Trump is having back room off-the-record secret meetings with the uber-liberal NY Times?
Why is he afraid to tell us what was discussed?
