“Who cares about a video from 2012? Has he said anything at all about immigration recently?”
So 2012 is not recently...when Trump blasted Romney for being too tough on immigration, blamed it for his loss, and pushed the GOP to adopt ‘comprehensive immigration reform’ to improve its standing with “Hispanics and Asians.” What about how he continued to support it all the way up until June 2015, until he decided he would run for the Republican nomination for President and switched his marketing campaign?

So based on your standard, Trump should get a pass all the way up until June 2015, and also get a pass for pushing the GOP a few years ago to adopt “comprehensive immigration reform” because that was too long ago...so Rubio gets a pass for Gang of 8? That was back during the same time period when Trump was pushing that kind of a policy for the GOP to improve its image. Or Rubio doesn’t get a pass for it but Trump does because Trump is Trump?
It’s horrifying and disturbing but Trump gets a pass on everything from the Trumpers here.
They are not even ashamed of it.
