TRUMPÕS CORE VIEWS

1 Calls for wall to be built along southern border because Òa nation without borders is not a nationÓ. Demands that Mexico pays for wall

2 Wants to triple numbers of immigration enforcement officers and return all migrants with criminal records to home countries

3 Says any immigration plan must improve jobs, wages and security for all Americans. Emphasis on hiring legal immigrants and native workers first
