How do you deport millions of illegal aliens? One at a time, as you catch them. It might take ten years, it might take twenty. But if you want to do it, it will be done.

We arrest and jail hundreds of thousands of U.S. citizens every year. We break up their families when they are sent to prison. There is no reason why we can't do the same with illegal aliens. They can take their kids with them if they want. It's up to them.

Until we go after the root of the problem and start arresting business owners that hire them the entire thing is an exercise in futility.

I would love to see Trump as POTUS.....It would send a very strong message to the GOP that we are tired of TALK and we want ACTION....Politicians never do what they promise and everyone gets apathetic after the election. Our country has been a country of action & rebelion, it is not until recent times (last 100 years) that the populace is willing to settle for status quo....I for one want to see heads roll and action in politics. Trump is the ONLY one of the candidates that can pull this off because he isn't beholden to anyone and he is a doer not a talker!!


Ps.....If he does become President & proves everyone wrong by doing what he says he will do he will be a hard act to follow....
For those of you who think Carson is your man just remember that a belt buckle is the difference between your guy being a candidate and without it he could well be in prison for life for murder!!!

Why is it ok with the bleeding hearts that people came to this country and stayed beyond what their visa allowed? Why is it ok for them to break the law by staying here. Aren't the citizens of the US afraid for people to stay here without citizenship in this era of ISIS. If we allow anyone to come to this country and overstay their visas aren't you concerned that someday there will be more of them than us & we have allowed, even encouraged, them to be here because its "the American way"? What is the encouragement to immigrants who are coming here legally to wait their turn when anyone else can just come here illegally?

That's fine with me.

We need mandatory e-verify for all workers.

And we need to get rid of ridiculous laws that don't allow employers to ask hard questions because "that would be racist."

How do you know this? Sounds like bad assumption to me.

Hispanics come from 26 very different countries, consist of any race, and have very diverse backgrounds. To suggest they all think alike and act alike is folly at best. In the USA there is only one demographic that fits that suggestion and we know where they will be voting.

Why would Trump be disliked by Hispanic "citizens"?

The most detailed framework for tax reform to emerge in Congress in recent years was authored by Rep. Dave Camp (R-Michigan), outgoing chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee (Paul Ryan was his successor). Camp introduced his proposal just prior to his retirement from Congress, his timing in no sense coincidental. The plan was met with emphatic denunciation from Republican leadership, a sentiment echoed throughout the GOP caucus. What was Camp's sin? Well, you see, when Paul Ryan releases one of his infamous budget outlines, he's careful not to identify politically damaging cuts. Instead, he just tosses a bunch of unspecified "savings" into a pile and assigns it a dollar value. Assuming it's an honest accounting, it nonetheless seems dubious to think that cuts too toxic to name will ever make it into law. Evidently, Rep. Camp had a similar epiphany, because he went ahead and named them. Individual income tax expenditures (i.e., deductions, exemptions, etc.) cost the treasury ~$1 trillion a year, with seven provisions accounting for over half of that amount:



Any of them look familiar? It was reductions in the mortgage interest and charitable giving deductions that earned Camp much of the criticism. I'm sure he would've loved to confine his cuts to egregious special interest giveaways such as the carried interest loophole, unfortunately, most of the money is sitting in bloated sacred cows.

Here's what the GOP did the instant Obama got elected - quite pitiful:

The residents of border states know first hand how illegal immigration affects American citizens adversely. And Hispanics who ARE here legally don't want illegals, either.....the illegals endanger their own jobs. The only Hispanics who hate Trump are ones who have ties to the illegals or who are using his comment about illegals to encompass all Hispanics.

Trump is a problem solver. There are plenty of examples of him finding ways to accomplish tasks that others have declared impossible or unable to do without huge expenditures or time. Him saying he is rich is not to brag, but to declare himself a success and tell people he is willing to apply that same knowledge and energy into helping America.

You haven't respected him from his first entry into the race, so I doubt no matter what he says or does, your mind is made up to dislike him. That's your right, but he hasn't been first in the polls for months for no reason. His message is resonating.
Well, she was all for Romney last election, so I take anything she says with a grain of salt.
