“He [Donald Trump] said that very consistently”.

“It’s absolutely building the wall”, she said. Build the wall. No amnesty. And he plans to crack down on “sanctuary cities” that aren’t adhering to federal immigration laws.
Donald Trump says he’ll deliver a detailed speech Wednesday on his proposal to crack down on illegal immigration on Wednesday – but it’s anyone’s guess what he will say. That’s also part of Donald Trump’s plan. Beck likened Trump’s self-debate on immigration to the work of a novice politician who doesn’t do serious deliberation in private. Do they, or don’t they?
“I have no inside info, but my strong suspicion is Trump meant to pivot & was persuaded to by Conway, but he couldn’t take the backlash”, he said.
“He is talking about being fair and humane [but] also being fair to the workers who are competing for jobs, being fair to all of us who want secure borders”.
“He shows people that he’s not all closed-minded”, she said. I just want to be clear, though. The mechanism could be as simple as only pursuing for deportation those who have committed crimes beyond their immigration status, or creating a pathway for immigrants here illegally to legally remain in the country. “There is no legalization”, Trump said.
“They’re great people, and great leaders”, he said of Mexicans during his Phoenix speech, “but they’re going to pay for the wall”. And so, that’s important.
But the big question entering Wednesday night’s speech was whether he’d stand by his calls for mass deportations – including families that hadn’t violated additional laws. He is saying that, as well.
He has been inconsistent on deportation and the deportation force throughout the entire campaign. He hasn’t mentioned that since last November.
We value thoughtful comments representing a range of views that make their point quickly and politely. But Trump has been more consistent on some planks of his immigration platform than others. And I’ll build them very inexpensively. In fact, Hillary Clinton is to the left of Barack Obama on immigration.
For more than a week now, as he’s tried to shine the spotlight on his rival, Trump has appeared to wrestle with one of his signature proposals: A pledge to expel everyone living in the US illegally with the help of a “deportation force”.
Jimenez says she came to the United States from Mexico as a 1-year-old child and graduated from Grand Canyon University. She’s for catch and release. This isn’t exactly an uncommon opinion; immigration is an extremely contentious issue. Joni Ernst’s “Roast and Ride” were an illustration of the pivot he is attempting – from his promise during the primaries to deport all undocumented immigrants, to a new narrowed focus on immigrant criminals. So, everybody needs to be – everything needs to be examined and looked upon.

In an interview on radio station WABC, Jeb Bush called Trump’s flip flop “abhorrent” and said that “I don’t know what to believe about a guy who doesn’t believe in things”.
