Just bringing you the highlights of a colorful
Time interview with The Donald. Here's Trump hitting back at Jeb! on foreign policy after Jeb! criticized Trump for saying "
I watch the shows" for advice rather than having foreign policy advisers.
Trump: I don’t have to sit around with a group of generals to tell me about Iraq being a failure. Iraq was a total failure.
Fair point. Do we want someone who does a little more than watching "the shows" for foreign policy advice? Yes. Yes, we do. But apparently Jeb! sitting around with his crack foreign policy team hasn't really instilled what everyone under the sun knows: "Iraq was a total failure."
Then The Donald explained his mass deportation "it'll all work out" immigration platform.
Question: So again, just talking about the hardworking peaceful undocumented immigrants here.
Illegal immigrants, we’re taking about the illegal. Do you know the word illegal? They go out …
But do you forcibly remove them? I mean if they choose not to go, if they say, “No, I’m not going to go.”
It’ll all work out. It’s called management. Politicians can’t manage. All they can do is talk. It’s called management. And we’ll do an expedited system. Because I agree with you, there are some very, very good people here who they are here illegally.
Head below the fold for more of this delightful interview.
Man, people are so uptight about the details of deporting 11 million people. It's about "management" people—do you know the word "management"? The Donald's got this. RELAX.
And here's a fun little hiccup for the "No new taxes" wing of the GOP.
Question: Are you willing to sign the “No New Taxes” pledge of Grover Norquist?
Well I’m thinking about it but I have a problem because I may want to switch taxes around. I want to save the middle class. And I have hedge fund guys that are making a lot of money that aren’t paying anything, okay. And I don’t know how his pledge relates to that.
Gasp. Not sign the Norquist pledge?! Oh my ... as if
taking on the Kochs wasn't "eff you very much" enough, Norquist just spit up coffee all over himself. Heh.
