Sure.
Trump’s record on deficit reduction is stellar.
Looking at this platform… it looks to me like increased spending and lower tax revenue.

Who said, “surge the border”? Can you guess? Now here we are, you’re responsible for endorsing this and here is your typical denying, lib response.
Who said he’d provide free health care for illegals? Can you guess?
Libs own this and it’s cost this country thousands of drug deaths, almost a trillion dollars, rapes, crime, violence…

What are the resources involved to deport 20 million people from the country? What would be the cost per person deported in loss of labor force, cost of labor to deport, cost of detention, cost of travel, cost of court time, etc… etc….
What is the number where the cost of mass deportation exceeds what is willing to be paid?
That doesn’t include the expansion of the police state.

Look at you…DEFENDING THIS GARBAGE that by your own admission is financially CRIPPLING to this country. You voted for a demented idiot who bragged about doing this and yet, you’d vote for him again. IMO…libs are working hard AGAINST the well being of this nation.

Less then allowing them to stay and others to keep pouring in. How would I do it? Arrest every person who hires them. Including the CEO. No public assistance none. If they go to emergency room, treat them and arrest them. Soon they will be streaming south and stop going north. No walk through asylum seekers. If they pass through anouther country they have to apply there or go to our embassy there. All caught going across border forfeits any chance of asylum, green card, visas and citizenship.
On flip side increase seasonal work visas 10 fold. They have to leave the country for 3 months a year to keep it.
That is just off top of head.

What is the limit of resources spent to remove undocumented labor?
That is the real question.

That kind of logic is for grownups though.

Sound good?
A mediocre start, but a start nonetheless.

This platform from the RNC is really pretty vague and allows a heck of a lot of wiggle room for them to claim success regardless. But thats to be expected from any party.
If Trump wins it will be interesting to see if they will quantify and define what success looks like.
Lots of contradictions in this such as they talk about freedom to pray in schools and read the bible. What about other religions. Will children have the freedom to pray to allah, read the koran, Will the Hindu Gayatri mantra be allowed? Will Wicca be embraced?
This is the problem with religion in publicly funded schools, allow one religion, make accommodations for one religion and you open up a pandoras box.

Will they allow this for religious freedom?

Imagine what the response could have been if the platform focused on limiting government overreach rather than so much focus on Christian faith. There’s a real demand for a political party that takes a “hands off” approach rather than encroachment from the left or the right.
