It's really simple... look at the polling. If you go after Trump, your numbers collapse. They're scared shi***** of him and his supporters.

Only Trump's supporters send death threats to news anchors because they're deemed too harsh on him.

Indeed, it's an army of glass jaws. Frankly, if anything is going to be Trump's downfall, it's his inability to take criticism.

And the CBO is saying this will cost $300b and take 40 years to deport everyone.

The most sensible thing is amnesty and get people out there working and paying taxes.

Trump's agenda is disgusting and racist and playing xenophobia in older and whiter America. That's all it is. No one can quantify what the economic impacts are the illegal immigration, so... is it worth $300b and the undermining of the 14th amendment so a bunch of angry and paranoid white men feel better about being paranoid racists?

I mean, he was talking about going after street gangs, like an illegal immigrant would be entangled in a situation that would involve the risk of contact with law enforcement? But it plays well to his vile base, facts don't matter, as long as he placates them, and gets support from it, it'll keep going. Illegal immigrants are out there in illegal crime gangs!!! Obviously.

Seriously...

Seriously...

The defence budget in 2014 was $581 billion. According to one estimate, illegal immigration costs the US government more than $100 billion every year. I think the American economy can take this one-time $300 billion hit. It's a worthwhile investment that will pay itself off in 3 years.

Um - where does this one estimate come from. Also conveniently forgetting that CBO also thinks it will take 40 years.

It's disgusting and pointless policy. Trump really doesn't give two s***s about this. This is his angle.
