Donald's new advisors advised him to do a 180 and he (probably reluctantly) agreed? Instead of deportation, Donald now is allowing illegal immigrants to call the USA their permanent home? This is hard to believe. But, Donald Trump DOES represent a new and REFRESHING brand of leadership.. so who knows.
Yes, that's been covered in other threads. It seemed plausible, but if we could even get them to pay for half or so it would be good.

I doubt anyone, myself included, who supports Trump in part because of Immigration, thinks anyone could feasibly deport 11million people. But, that's a great starting position, because when you compromise from that position you are much more likely to get something palatable to those who are anti current immigration policy. I'd much rather support someone who's starting position is: build a wall deport them all, than someone who's starting position is Amnesty for all. It's called making a deal.
Excellent point. I would suggest both. Build the wall and offer amnesty to a select quilified number of illegals. Not that deporting those 11 million illegals would be as hard as one might think, it could easily be done over say a five year period or so.
How is it that MEXICO is going togety for the wall? Donald Trump reiterated that again this past week. Has the method of coercion been divulged by him?

Already the Hillary lap-dogs are foaming at the mouth. Nothing has been announced, nobody even knows what's included in the "plan" if there is one, but there's a mention of possibly Trump allowing amnesty for some. I agree with the other posters who say that if anything it's probably to allow LAW ABIDING families, meaning those who aren't running drugs, committing violence, etc., to gain a pathway to remain if they can be properly vetted and maybe even learn to speak English ?!?
That would dovetail seamlessly with Donald Trump's message from the beginning. The people who call him racist are totally ignorant about the issues and about the man himself. They are too busy being brainwashed by the mainstream media and being used as tools by the Globalists.
I can't imagine anybody with common sense Not voting for Donald Trump.

Or maybe he's just winding things down for a planned loss? Recently started taking an antipsychotic? Was replaced by a Reptilian doppleganger?

No that would the same platform that has been in place for all Presidents since Reagan all the way through Obama. The very policy that Trump has made the cornerstone of his campaign opposing. Frankly I do not buy it. It would make his base lose it mind that he was basically saying Clinton has the right idea forget all that stuff I said before. And it will just come off as pandering to Latinos who would see it as a desperate move by a floundering campaign. The again who knows he could just deny he ever said anything about building a wall. He does that stuff all the time. He thinks people are idiots an unable to find his exact words from before. Maybe he does not know about Google.

Sounds like he's building a wall to keep them all in

Well today I watched his rally in Virginia and he said today that Yes We are building the wall and Yes Mexico is going to pay for it.
The 114th Congress is continuing to fund and oversee the Mérida Initiative and related domestic initiatives. The Obama Administration’s FY2016 request for the Mérida Initiative was for $119 million to help advance justice sector reform, modernize Mexico’s borders (north and south), and support violence prevention programs.

It's Univision so I'll take it with a grain of salt.
But it would be expensive and incredibly messy to try to arrest and deport all the illegal immigrants that are already in America. Why not introduce a program that vets immigrants and allows some of them without a criminal history to become citizens?

Is it just me, or does anyone else notice how a candidate's position on certain issues changes after an "intelligence briefing."
Remember how Obama went from "I'll bring all the troops home from Afghanistan" to "I'll leave it up to the commanders on the ground."

He's desperate for Latino voters! But, as with every other stance he's ever had, I'm sure in a week he'll flip flop on it because Trump is the King Hypocrite. He can't have his base possibly think he's gone soft like some kind of snowflake SJW!
Thanks Obama!
