Marc Thiessen notes this complaint from Donald Trump’s son Eric:
The point isn’t just deporting them, it’s deporting them and letting them back in legally. He’s been so clear about that and I know the liberal media wants to misconstrue it, but it’s deporting them and letting them back legally.
As Thiessen points out, Donald Trump has indeed said exactly that. He goes on to comment:
So if you get past Trump’s bluster, the plan he is proposing is so liberal that it earned the support of The New York Times and the opposition of National Review.
The reason is simple: Trump’s plan is in fact a form of amnesty—you just have to leave the country briefly to get it.
