“Mexico will be paying for the wall”.

He would cut off federal funds to any “sanctuary city” in the US that seeks to protect illegals.
There would be tough new regulations on businesses to more tightly screen employes for any illegals on their payroll. Plus, who sticks an adverb (“also”) at the end of a sentence?
“He said, ‘Yes, ‘ and he thought we would be very pleased on Wednesday”, said Suarez.
And he isn’t going after just the adult illegals who snuck across the border, but also parents of children who were born here and thus are legal citizens, and the DREAMers who were on their high school honor roll and planned to go to college.
In his speech, Mr Trump laid out a sweeping nationalist plan to dramatically slash illegal immigration, a main plank of his presidential campaign.
First and foremost, he ignores Congress’s role in all of this.
“He said everything I wanted him to say”.
Pena Nieto has been widely criticized for inviting and meeting with Trump, as well as for not confronting him more directly about comments calling immigrants from Mexico criminals, drug-runners and “rapists”, and the candidate’s vows to build a border wall and force Mexico to pay for it. He suggested that his declaration applied even if they have lived here for decades, are contributing members of society or have children who are US citizens. He warned that if that were to come to pass, America would cease to be a sovereign nation.
There’s an old saying that if a claim sounds too good to be true, it probably is, and that certainly applies to Trump’s preposterous boast that Mexico will do what he tells them to do.
The payment question came under some scrutiny earlier Wednesday after a visit to Mexico, where Trump met with Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto.
Trump instead repeated the standard Republican talking point that only after securing the border can a discussion begin about all such immigrants, ducking the major question that has frustrated past congressional attempts at remaking immigration laws.
That isn’t exactly true. Pena Nieto meanwhile tweeted, “At the beginning of my conversation with Donald Trump, I made it clear that Mexico will not pay for the wall”. “That’ll be for a later date”. “What we’ve seen very clearly is Donald Trump’s two faces on immigration”, Carla Marinucci said.
“I am going to create a new special deportation task force focused on identifying and quickly removing the risky criminal illegal immigrants in America who have evaded justice”, he said. I think it’s called extortion.
“The wall will get built, and in fact that was sort of acknowledged if you look at the statement”, he said. “And Mexico will pay for the wall”.
“If a Republican prioritizes an immigration issue, then the message is one of enforcement, one of cracking down”, Jones said.
But among the American electorate at large, every poll still shows that the overall economy, jobs, government mismanagement and a $20 trillion national debt remain far and away the leading concerns of most Americans.
In a step that will soothe the concerns of his base but is broadly unpopular with the general electorate, Mr Trump warned all 11 million people now in the United States could face deportation if he wins the White House. Marco Rubio of Florida and Sen.
But some Republican Latino leaders don’t feel the same way and are reconsidering their support of the Republican presidential nominee.

Aside from building the wall that incorporated the latest technology, he would deport illegal immigrants without engaging them in legal proceedings, suspend issuance of U.S. visas to countries without adequate screening, and initiate against the 23 countries that refuse to accept their own citizens after the USA deports them.
