In a little more than a month, the outspoken Trump will almost certainly be one of the candidates who polls high enough to earn a spot onstage at the first Republican primary debate. It's a potential disaster in the making for Republicans who desire a more prim and proper run-up to selecting their nominee.
Shake and Bake, baby! No more Weasels!
It's only a disaster for establishment RINO Republicans who support amnesty.
Reagan supported amnesty ..was he a RINO?
The Democrats promised Reagan they would seal the border. They lied, of course.
That's YOUR retort? Really? More history revisionism? READ THIS DUMBASS:
The second policy mistake of the Reagan years that today’s Republicans could learn from was the passage in 1986 of “The Immigration Reform and Control Act” (IRCA), through which about three million illegal immigrants were granted legal status.
President Reagan believed to his very soul that the opportunity to join in the greatness of America should be open to anyone and he was equally determined in his opposition to anything that smacked of exploitation or abuse of those without power.
Reagan also had a deep commitment to his larger agenda in Central and South America – that of fighting communism, and saw good relations with Mexico as key to the success of that agenda.
This made him open to the appeals for “legalization” made by establishment Republican Senator Alan Simpson – the bête noir of conservatives on many issues even today, 15 years after he left the Senate.
When the IRCA or Simpson-Mazzoli Act finally passed, it supposedly required employers to attest to their employees' immigration status; made it illegal to knowingly hire or recruit unauthorized immigrants; it legalized certain seasonal agricultural illegal immigrants and it legalized illegal immigrants who entered the United States before January 1, 1982 and had resided there continuously with the penalty of a fine, back taxes due, and admission of guilt.
One of the “sweeteners” to obtain the votes necessary to pass the bill was also a Congressional promise to fund and build a border fence.
Sound familiar?
Today, 27 years after the passage of the IRCA, the border fence isn’t built and the penalties against hiring illegal aliens remain largely unenforced.
