If deporting them is wrong, I don’t want to be right.

because every CEO, the chamber of commerce and the WSJ is for it. That’s the way it is. Every CEO wants to lower costs.

He has to take off his CEO hat off and put his American hat on.

He knows all of the other regulations that the Dept of Labor imposes to increase labor costs, including pro union boss rules.

Well he’s not going to be making immigration policy. As long as Trump carries thru I’m happy.

This one is beginning to look like the weak link. Didn’t Burger King wrap its burgers in rainbow paper?

Yeah because this guy is going to run immigration, huh?

A cabinet isnt expected to be 100000000000% in agreement with each other. God only knows where some people on this site got that idea.

LOL. Like I am supposed to trust Yahoo News.

I’ll think the SecLab will represent the views of POTUS.

This is FR.

Increasingly a place where people fight to do their best impression of DU commentators.

Dittos....although he may be in charge of enforcement of labor laws (E-verify), which I’m confident will be part of the plan. One truth he spoke referenced the work ethic that he witnessed as head of CKE—it sounded like the entitlement society has created lots of kid too entitled to work at Hardees. This much we know is correct.

For one thing, they are illegal aliens not undocumented residents

They expect the Cabinet to be like a liberal college campus, where everyone thinks the same way

Immigrants are legal and do not require being legalized, he was talking about illegal aliens being given amnesty.

I don’t want bleeding heart liberals anywhere near the reigns of power. This is our last chance to get it right.

“Puzder said that his fast-food chain’s workforce in California, where a greater share of employees were Latino, was more productive and motivated than some of his employees in other areas of the country.”

Mexico should be anxious to get back these human earning fireballs.
There will be a long line of legal applicants wanting to replace them.

When Trump gets the wall built he'll get away with legalizing lots of peeps already here, dreamers, etc. I've always maintained that a wall in place forever..one that can't be turned off or unenforced is the main battle...especially once the criminals and miscreants are out the door.

Enforcement such as E-verify will self-deport many.

So people who don't want pro amnesty people in the cabinet are like liberal college campuses?

That's quite a twist in logic.
