You guys didn't just move the goalposts - you've relocated the entire stadium.

I remember arguing with Trump supporters that there was no way in hell he was going to round up 11 million people and deport them, and they insisted that's exactly what he was going to do.

And some folks would say he's going to give touchback amnesty to illegals, and his supporters would insist that we were ignorant, liars, and didn't know what we were talking about.

Other candidates would call him on it, say it wouldn't/couldn't happen. Then Trump would shoot them down, and his supporters were saying it was going to be a new day coming and all the illegals would be shipped out.

But as it turns out...his critics were right the whole time. He's backpedaled from everything he promised except building a wall, which is something most of the other candidates supported anyway.

Now, all he says is that he's going to be "fair". Heh.

I'd say it was fortuitous that this bait and switch was exposed in time, but his supporters are so invested in what they've built up Trump to be in their own minds that they don't even care that reality is different.

How and how quickly you round them up is open for negations. That should make sense. Has he stated that’s not what he’s going to do?
