We talked last week about how just about everyone is getting Donald Trump's position on immigration wrong. He is not going to round up 11 million people and deport them. Never was. Never will. What he's said all along was that everyone in the U.S. illegally will be subject to deportation, which means that unlike Obama and Hillary he's not going to concede up front that they'll be given a pass for breaking the law. He will prioritize those who are lawbreakers or otherwise causing problems in deciding who to deport, but no one just gets - for lack of a better term - flat out amnesty.
You might not get deported. But legal authorities are not going to declare you above the law.
Because last week he acknowledged the obvious - that some illegal aliens would be higher deportation priorities than others - the media thought he was endeavoring to "soften" his position. Apparently Ann Coulter was fit to be tied. But all Trump was ever doing was ackowledging a fairly basic detail about how his position would work in practice.
