Front-running Trump defends immigration plan

trumpDonald Trump again made what seems like weekly appearances on Sunday interview shows, this time defending a plan that would remove all immigrants who are in the country illegally.

While critics say the idea is impractical and would cost at least $400-to-$600 billion, Trump said on CBS and ABC that the country is already paying too high a price for illegal immigration.

“It’s costing us $130 billion a year and that’s peanuts compared to what the real cost is,” the front-running Republican presidential candidate said on ABC’s This Week.

The New York businessman has also called for a wall along the nation’s southern border — and to have Mexico pay for it — and said that “really good” immigrants would be expedited back into the country. Trump has also called for ending automatic citizenship for the babies of immigrants who are in the country illegally. More in USAToday.
