I agree with all you wrote. The tide is against establishment politicians with the exception of Cruz. Jeb Bush, Rubio, Kasich, Scott Brown, etc have all seen their numbers drop and rightly so.

At the end of the day however specifics matter. It’s going to come up in the debates, in opposition ads, Throwing out generalities on how to move mountains won’t cut it.

I downloaded the 6 page plan (PDF at link in story). It’s well done and I suspect Sessions helped to craft it for Trump. I think it shows plenty of “specifics” that folks have been asking for time and again. I would like to see the other 16 candidates endorse and/or adopt it.

Yes you and me , we are for freedom, very limited government and American values. They want to replace us with Mexicans and Somalis etc. that are for big government and for marxism .

And they are doing it they are bringing in immigrants legal an illegals from every third world country to replace us and our votes in our own country(USA)

“Can’t end birthright citizenship without a Constitutional Amendment and that ain’t happening.”

Many people think this has only been allowed due to a faulty interpretation of the Constitution.

If someone has the balls to actually seal the border; it would shrink way down in significance anyway.

Well the political class are puppets, craven, and stupid is why things don’t get done in DC. Most of the law already supports Trump if not all of it.

Trump now has done much research on this and speaking with the distinguished Senator Sessions has solidified his position.

The fact that he went Sessions should ease a lot of minds? Like i have been saying i would not, will not, consider voting for Trump if he does not surround himself with solid conservatives.
This is an impressive first step,no?

Can’t think of a better way to get illegal aliens to the polls in 2016. It’s a SERIOUS threat.

I thought you’d have more to say than I’ll believe it when I see it. I thought I’d died and been thrown into an alternate universe to see someone running for president grow a spine and say what the people are feeling. It is a breath of fresh air to hear someone saying it!! This in itself is an enormous step. Sure as hell beats the same over used term that no one ever challenges anyone on, “comprehensive immigration reform” every time I hear that term it means absolutely nothing but a feel good word to pretend we are doing something. Thank god for this man speaking the unspeakable up until now!! Send them home

None in the GOP field of candidates have anything close and comprehensive or as impressive as this one.

Romney was right about several things and self-deport is one of them. Once the word spreads that serious enforcement is coming, there will be a mass exodus. Although I imagine an awful lot will try heading north, it’ll be interesting to see what Canada does.

Trump is a huge problem to the political/financial establishment, especially with his “Make America great again” slogan. They have no idea how to deal with him, or his message. Everything that they try just comes back to bite them in the ass, and only reinforces Trumps popularity.

To attack Trump is to attack the “Make America great again” message.

The does not sit well with the majority of Americans.

So far only one thing I disagree with:

U.S. taxpayers have been asked to pick up hundreds of billions in healthcare costs, housing costs, education costs, welfare costs, etc. Indeed, the annual cost of free tax credits alone paid to illegal immigrants quadrupled to $4.2 billion in 2011.

We have not been “ASKED” to do anything. We have been TOLD and DEMANDED to do what we don’t want to do and don’t want to pay for.

They should have put a direct link to the Mexican Infiltration book as well. It is a 2005 guide to invading the United States, evading the law and taking advantage of benefits.

Will he seal the border?

The border does not have to be sealed there just has to be a penalty for crossing it, that the crosser is not willing to pay.

No other politician has said the things that Trump has said like “deport all illegals” . Why? other politicians haven’t even said the world “deport” because all politicians are owned by big donors and lobbyists, chamber of commerce ,China , Mexico, Saudi Arabia.
