Jeff Sessions: Trump still doesn’t know how he would deport illegal immigrants

Pressed in an interview on CNN as to whether a deportation force was still on the table as a law enforcement measure, Conway said it was “to be determined”. Sessions said. “I think we can ask some of those questions”.

“He’s wrestling with how to do that”, Sessions said Sunday on CBS’ “Face the Nation” of how Trump might “humanely” remove 11 million people from the country. “We want to come up with a really fair, but firm answer”.

Alabama’s junior senator also said the Trump campaign hasn’t discussed an ideological test for prospective citizens, but he added that the country should only take in immigrants that share American values.

So expect a major flip flop on Thursday when Trump gives a speech on immigration in Colorado.

Trump himself rejected the BuzzFeed story on Monday, saying it’s as accurate as the website’s previous predictions that Trump could never prevail in the GOP primaries. It has to be very firm. “From opposing comprehensive immigration reform with a path to citizenship; to standing against raising the federal minimum wage; to enacting tax breaks for the rich and powerful instead of everyday Americans and so much more, Trump and the Republicans stand squarely against Latino voters at every turn”. He’s vowed to fortify the wall along the southern border – while forcing the Mexican government to pick up the tab. President Obama won roughly 70 percent of that group in both 2008 and 2012, and Republican leaders have been scrambling to reverse that trend in 2016. Those proposals were a centerpiece of the platform that helped propel Trump to winning the Republican presidential nomination, and a shift would be significant.

It’s a dynamic the advocates recognize, and they’re warning that Trump’s candidacy alone won’t bring those voters to the polls.

“Look, we need a lawful system of immigration”.

Lawyers for the department said they anticipate releasing the first batch of these new emails in mid-October, raising the prospect new messages sent or received by Democratic nominee could become public just before Election Day.

A Buzzfeed report suggested Trump was “open” to a plan that would provide pathways to naturalization for some illegal US residents – which would represent a seismic policy shift for the billionaire.
