TAPPER: I do want to talk about immigration and illegal immigration, an issue that you have talked about a lot. You were at the border the other day. Assuming a President Trump is able to stop the flow of illegal immigration through building a wall or some parts of a wall, what do you think should be done with the estimated 11 million undocumented workers and their families already here?

Would you be open-minded about a path to citizenship? Is that a nonstarter with you? Where are you on that issue?

TRUMP: OK, fine.

First of all — and you said it — you have to stop it. You have to stop it fast. And we can do that. We can do that with combinations of walls and Border Patrol, who are phenomenal people. I met many of them when I was in Laredo, when — when I was at the border. And we can stop that — and fencing.

But we can stop it with both construction and with physical. I mean, we can do a great job of that. OK? I’m totally convinced. And it won’t cost the kind of money — in fact, we will save money, because people that are coming in here that shouldn’t be coming in here illegally, it will actually save money by doing it, and doing it properly.

Once that’s done, we have a situation that is going to be done immediately, before that’s done. We’re going to get the bad ones out. We have some really bad dudes right here in this country, and we’re getting them out, and we’re sending them back to where they came from. And I don’t mean Mexico. I mean, it’s — they come from all over. They’re not coming just from — they’re coming from all over.

….

TAPPER: Right.

TRUMP: At to get rid of the — the bad ones are going to get out. Then, from that point on, we’re going to look very, very strongly at what we do. And I’m going to formulate a plan that I think people are going to be happy with. But we’re going to look very, very strongly at what we do.

TAPPER: OK, but you’re not — but you’re not going to rule in or rule out…

TRUMP: I’m going to get rid of the bad ones fast.

TAPPER: OK.

TRUMP: And I’m going to send them back. And we’re not going to be putting them in prisons here, and pay for them for the next 40 years.

TAPPER: Right. But there are obviously…

TRUMP: We’re going to send them back where they could from.

TAPPER: There obviously will be — will remain, after you get rid of the bad ones, millions and millions of undocumented workers who are not bad ones.

Trump’s whole plan is to make the “bad” immigrants leave. What he didn’t make clear was how he is going to tell the “good” immigrants from the “bad” ones.

Given Trump’s previous comments, he believes that all immigrants are bad, so that means that everyone is going to have to leave. By the end of the interview, Trump had CNN’s Jake Tapper speaking like six-year-old, with talk of good and bad immigrants.

Donald Trump is popular with Republican voters because he speaks their simple language of good and bad. Trump’s rise is proof that the Republican Party is devolving and getting dumber with each presidential election cycle.

Trump has no real policies. He is full of racism, bigotry, and empty tough talk. The crazier he gets, the popular he becomes.

Trump keeps falling on his face, but Republican voters love him even more.
