Trump on Immigration

Donald Trump has tonight given his heralded speech on his immigration policies in Phoenix, AZ. See the text of his speech here at The Daily Caller website. First he identifies the problem:
The fundamental problem with the immigration system in our country is that it serves the needs of wealthy donors, political activists and powerful politicians. Let me tell you who it doesn’t serve: it doesn’t serve you, the American people.

When politicians talk about immigration reform, they usually mean the following: amnesty, open borders, and lower wages.
Trump didn't wimp out and he didn't waffle. The wall is still his policy, deporting all illegal aliens who commit crimes is still policy, forcing other countries to take back their felonious citizens by refusing visas to anyone from countries who won't take their losers back is policy. The bottom line:
There will be no amnesty.
Go read it for yourself, it is tough, fair, pro-American, and focused on getting immigrants who will be assets and will assimilate. The only illegal aliens who will be able to stay here unmolested are those who don't run afoul of the police and don't accept any public assistance. And he intends to track and chase visa overstayers who enter legally but don't go home.

I like it, perhaps you will too.
