Trump could say something like this:
"I condemn anyone, including those in my party, who attack the people who are desperate to come to America from South and Central America. The problem is not with them; it's with the so-called leaders of those countries who have allowed their countries to rot from corruption; it's with the American legislators who refuse to hold American companies legally accountable for hiring illegals; and it's with all of us for refusing to work together to solve this problem like reasonable adults.
"A family desperate to come to America should not be mocked or insulted. They just want to live in decency, they want to be able to take care of themselves and their families. They are truly victims of their home countries. Anyone who attacks them is part of the problem, not the solution."
Yeah. Something like that. Instead the party's loudest voices are the types of people we see here on USMB.
And of course, saying such a thing would get him sideways with Talk Radio, so don't hold your breath.

Ever see a cartoon where Elmer Fudd gets his shotgun out to go shoot a wabbit. Misfortune sees to it the gun barrel bends a one-eighty, ergo pulling the trigger becomes a certain shot in the face.
Neighboring nations learned a lesson from Mexico where the people who come here send money home to mom and dad, which enriches
el Presidente and his
hombres leales (loyal men) many times over. America benefits from cheap labor, the laborers relatives back home no longer starve, and Mexico has more money that it ever dreamed of having, circulating around, buying not only survival needs, but money to raise more children to go north in due time. For America, we have our own rules that worked for us when we were only responsible for raising and educating our own children. In border states, those sending money home send their children to schools accustomed to a smaller population of people who can be tapped for taxes.
When illegal alien's children populate an area by doubling the number of elementary students with each wave of immigrants, poorer districts cannot raise enough money to hire more teachers, and state laws may (or not) limit the size of classes. So if a sample class started with 12 students, same-age illegal alien children may see the number climb to 25 kids with the same one teacher.
Some states require the passage of a comprehensive exam of sixth grader children who attend the school. If the extra baker's dozen of illegals came in the 4th grade, their teacher must make certain the children understand the English language pronto, because 2 or 3 years can pass quickly, and time would have to cause long school days to teach one group in English and one group in Spanish. Guess who gets the most of the teacher's time? Yep, the non-English speaking crowd who may also be required to show intelligence equivalent to those with the English language, only one teacher times the number.
The taxpayers may see a hike in taxes for schools, yet their own children learn less with virtually no teacher intervention in their behalf due to having herself spread too thin between the two groups of language diverse children. Higher taxes for tax payers, lower benefits for their own children. Illegals send half their money home, live off their own half, no school taxes to pay. Fair? Tell me.
How can we justify taking people's living wages away and give them to the income tax-invading, illegal aliens who contribute nothing unless they can find a job picking seasonal foods. The situation that arises from stealth, lying, and obfuscating what happens in school systems is causing the weapon barrel to bend and then remove the taxpayer who knows that barrel is pointed the wrong way.
Why do we allow this to happen? Because we do not enforce existent laws. Please do not let the aliens drain taxpayers who have their own families to mind.
