Ok - his plan is different from Mike Pence’s which would be valid if Pence was running for President.

But his policy does have touchback even if it’s a years long process. How can he be against illegals not only for the violation of law part, but for the drain on the economy and still allow them to come back in some time down the road?

Trump brought it and pushed it, you are 100% correct. But his plan is flawed because of this.

Pence is relevant in that his "touchback" is what is generally considered when using the term.

"But his policy does have touchback"

Untrue. His policy contains none, nor is any such provision inferred. "Touchback" -along-with "mass deportations" are characterizations used by the opposition, for reasons which should be obvious.

In addition, the "let the good one's back in" talking point has several qualifiers as well. Those that return/stay would have to meet several benchmarks. His policy and his speeches make it clear that immigration must be a net benefit to US citizens. Period.
