I'll take back my words if they treat Jeb! or Hillary the same way. But I'm not holding my breath. Demanding Trump provide details on his plans while giving the others a pass seems to be the MO for MSM these days.
OMG where have you been all your life: 60 minutes has always leaned left, from there interviewers to who they interview and no, the other candidates have not claimed they cut all taxes for everyone expect for a few of the rich, or do they go around talking about rich they. Tell us one other candidate who has said this? It is great to claim you will do this or that, but all Pelly was doing, was trying to get Trump to explain how he would make us the strongest military in history, bring all jobs back to America, stop trade with China, round up millions of people and send them back to their homeland, build a beautiful fence. etc. Trump didn't have a workable plan for one of the questions. It is up to interviewers, regardless of the network to ask tough questions. Meet the Press, Fox Sunday, yes, 60 minutes sometimes, and the rest do this. Why would they bother to interview someone if they didn't want honest and detailed answers?i

you must have missed it He said almost everyone would pay no taxes of anykind, but he would raise taxes on some of the rich, not even all of them. He never mentioned any particular income level. I hope you taped it,so you can go back and watch him again. On the other hand you have you mind make up, so what good would it do? We all have our opinions and have a right to express them. We are so lucky to live in a country where we can do that.

"Letting back the good one's" seems to be something that fly's over the head of the Trump supporters. My guess is what Trump has in mind is a "touch back program". Illegals step forward, self deport, we do a background check and let them back in. That's my take on it.

How will it not work? It is very simple....

You remove their opportunity to work by required employers to self enforce
You remove their ability to get free crap by revoking welfare


THEY WILL DEPORT THEMSELVES!! BAZINGA>>>> easy peazy

You know why you feel that way, right? It's because every time he holds a town meeting, a press conference or a rally, it's covered in full but you just get clips from the other candidates' public appearances. They all give stump speeches, you just know his better because of the coverage he gets.

How many times has this been said? It is the logical first step. Then, you simply enforce the immigration law as it comes up, employer sweeps, fines and jail for employers that aren't hiring people according to the law, traffic stops, any criminal activity where they are picked up........

So, you are right. The majority will have to leave when those incentives are removed. The rest, we can apprehend and remove.

Trump can get it done! I suspect those that make a lot of the comments against Trump have not been listening to him because what they are stating is not true. Or, maybe, they have an inability to comprehend what he is saying since, let's face, it is been awhile since these issues were discussed and it probably just all seems really new to them, so foreign, "Make American Great Again". Yes, it does sound impossible but Trump offers the best chance at this and many are willing to take that chance versus continuing on our downward spiral to 3rd world status.

The illegal immigrants will be one of the easiest tasks because we know how to get that done and lots of people are just waiting for the word to enforce.

Without jobs and welfare, they'll stop coming in and those here will have to go home. How much simpler can it be said?

Boy, I bet they'll wish they didn't have those 5 anchor babies per family to feed when they get home!

^^^This. All we know is everything he's 'planning' is going to be the best, (h)uge, amazing, or just insert any adjective you can come up with. Unfortunately, he just talks in circles avoiding giving any answers/numbers. He IS a total blowhard, which I totally expected.

Except that is not what Trump is saying. He says he will let the good ones back in. By good he said those that worked hard and stayed out of trouble. That's well over 70 percent of them. Are you saying Trump is lying?

He didn't say anything that you claim. Did you even watch the interview?

On the other hand, please tell us which candidate you support and how they have given more detail than Trump.

Insulting Trump's supporters is tactic used when one can't attack the candidate's message. As I asked the previous poster, which candidate do you support and what have they said that makes them better than Trump?
