This is a Jeb Bush Plant Article that was posted by a Bush supporter on redstate. Marc Thiessen who wrote the article was a speech-writer for GW Bush.Quote:

Trump Supporters are all-in to win and won't tolerate this type of garbage article written and circulated by Bush supporters, they'll not hold it against Trump, they'll hold it against the outfits circulating it.
So are you saying Eric Trump lied or that the writer is falsifying his words? If the writer was a liar, seems we would have heard something about a lawsuit by now, especially considering Trump's love of lawsuits. Please learn to read articles for what they are and not what you wish they were. Thank you.Quote:

Trump is the most covered candidate in the race with more exposure, more information, more videos, more tapes, more articles than any candidate in the race. There is no shortage of information about Donald Trump's plans or intentions.
Every Trump supporter knows exactly what he's going to do with regards to illegal immigration. He's going to deport illegal aliens within 2 years. He's going to build a wall to keep them out. Whatever happens to them after that is a totally separate issue. There is no linkage, no law that binds, no law that applies other than what's on the books today that says they can apply for re-entry after 10 years.
Any action that would allow them to come back in sooner than that would require new legislation which Trump has not proposed and is not part of his immigration plan.

Yep, a wall with a "big, very beautiful door" because we want the legals to come back into the country."Quote:

No, it's not a totally separate issue. What good is it to deport 20 million if you're going to turn around and allow 15 million to return under and expedited process. Yes, Trump has said he will fix it so that will happen. If you trust him on all other things, you must also trust him on this.
And getting such a proposal through our current Congress with Ryan and McConnell leading the way would surprise you?Quote:

Trump accuses Cruz of supporting 'amnesty'

Donald Trump opened a new front in his incipient war on Ted Cruz late on Wednesday, accusing the Texas senator of supporting “amnesty” for immigrants in the U.S. illegally.
“Ted was in favor of amnesty,” Trump told host Wolf Blitzer on CNN’s “The Situation Room.”
“Him and Marco Rubio have been fighting about who’s weaker,” he continued after Blitzer noted Cruz’s claim that he was stronger than the real-estate mogul on immigration issues.
Trump went on to knock Cruz for “taking my idea for the wall,” repeating a complaint he has aired every day this week.
“I’m glad he’s taking my idea. I think it’s the right thing to do,” Trump went on. “These people who are politicians don’t know how to build walls. They don’t know how to build anything.”
“All of a sudden, they’re trying to get into my territory,” Trump groused.
The exchange comes on a day of political news dominated by Trump’s suggestion that Cruz, who was born in Canada to an American mother, may not be legally eligible to be president.
Cruz scoffed at the implication, dismissing the flap as a “silly circus sideshow debate about things that are not consequential” and citing legal scholarship finding that children of U.S. citizens born abroad qualify as “natural born citizens” under most interpretations of the Constitution.
But Cruz found a way to strike back at Trump later in the day, telling ABC News “my record is stronger than his” and highlighting his “proven record as a fiscal conservative, as a social conservative, as a national security conservative” — drawing an implicit contrast to Trump’s past liberal leanings.
In December, under fire from Rubio, Cruz denied ever supporting citizenship for immigrants in the country illegally.
“My position is very simple: I oppose amnesty. I oppose citizenship. I oppose legalization … Today, tomorrow, forever.
I believe in the rule of law,” he said.
Cruz has since sought to outflank his GOP rivals on the issue, playing up his support from immigration hard-liners such as Iowa Rep. Steve King and Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions and firing off attacks of his own.
“Look, there’s a difference,” he told a reporter in Iowa on Tuesday, referring to Trump. “He’s advocated allowing folks to come back in and become citizens. I oppose that.”
