To Trump supporters......I have asked this question many, many times on various threads and I really need an answer. I can’t find any information and this recent negotiable thing falls right in line.
So we know Trump will build a wall, we know he is sending them back and we know he will allow the good ones to come back into the US. It has to be mentioned that this is called “touchback” and has been the democrats proposal and is even in the Gang of Eight bill. Ok, so once the good ones come back in, WHAT THEN? Trump hasn’t told us what his proposals will be for the “good ones.” What will their status be when they legally re-enter? I am betting it will be precisely what is in the gang of eight. So are we being snookered?
Their status will be amazing. It'll be wonderful. They'll have the best, most luxurious, classiest status. Trump will make their status great again!

My understanding is that ANYBODY ( those who are not hardened criminals) can apply to be a permanent resident of the United States as long as they apply here LEGALLY, not jump the queue.
So, these folks who go home and want to come back are welcome, PROVIDED THEY QUEUE like everybody else.
Alternatively, we can revive the BRACERO PROGRAM during the Trump to Eisenhower years where seasonal workers can come and do manual labor TEMPORARILY and go home once their work is done. That program worked quite well until it was sabotaged by the labor unions.
Every one of them can apply, legally, through the US immigration and naturalization service, for a chance to show their stuff.
They can get in line.
The Govt can, at their discretion, based on the need for such persons of such skills, allow some in to show their qualifications.
If they are productive people, that contribute the well being of the US, and are an asset to this beautiful country, after a period of five years as hard working tax paying contributers to society, they may be allowed to take a test, in English, regards US history and the US Constitution for a chance to become natrulized.
Those already here illegally can walk back across and get in the back of the line.
if caught here illegal, they will not be allowed to get into the line, at all.
What do you mean, "we"? ;-)
He actually said their status would be identical to anyone who enters the country legally.
You can ask an immigration lawyer what this means, but it seems right to me. What ever we are doing now for legal entrants will apply. Does this make sense?
