You said:

Walker is massively pro-amnesty.

It just isn’t so, here are Walkers own words:

“See now that’s where they take it out of context,” Walker said in response. “I’ve not said there should be amnesty in this country. I don’t believe that. I don’t support the legislation being kicked around. What I’ve said repeatedly is we need to fix the immigration system, but fix the legal system. So if people want to come in this country we should have a legal immigration system.”
Bannon then interjected: “And take care of the borders and everything we have to do first.”
Walker concurred, saying that any immigration reform efforts should “fix the front door.”
“If you’re somebody, whether you’re from Mexico or Germany or Ireland, and you want to come to this country legally, we should find a way to make it happen,” Walker said.

I think that is likely what most people in this country would say.

Please see my post #19.

Walker, like Jeb, has a Hispanic wife, and he not only wants to give citizenship to illegals already here, he wants to make it legal for anyone who wants to come here to do so.

You’re way out of touch if you think that most Americans believe ““If you’re somebody, whether you’re from Mexico or Germany or Ireland, and you want to come to this country legally, we should find a way to make it happen,” Walker said.”

Walker would get rid of illegal immigration by simply letting everyone come here legally and, as he has explicitly said, legalizing and making citizens of those who are already here illegally.

No pol claims to be for amnesty, but listen carefully and most actually are.
