Donald Trump has been making the rounds as presidential announcement season for the GOP has kicked into high gear, with most assuming he’ll pull the usual stunt – pretend an announcement to run is imminent, before backing out.
That said, Trump has offered up an immigration platform we’ve never quite heard before.
In an interview with CBN, more specifically on a question regarding immigration, Trump boasted that “Nobody can build a fence like me,” before adding “and I would have Mexico pay for it.”
“They will pay for it,” he stressed again.
Watch the full news segment below, in which Trump also declares President Obama to be “incompetent” and proclaims he’d be “the greatest representative of the Christians they’ve had in a long time.”

… After his wall is installed?
“Nobody comes in illegally anymore,” Trump said.
Specifics on such a wall, which Trump has advocated for some time, remain unclear. But he already has some financiers in mind.
“I would have Mexico pay for it,” he said. “Believe me. They will pay for it, because they have really ripped this country off. They have really taken advantage of us both economically and at the border. They will pay for that fence.”
We’d love to know how Trump would go about making Mexico pay for a border fence that would keep Mexican citizens in their own country. But we’re afraid to ask, assuming he’d tell us to just wait for a televised announcement somewhere down the line.
Trump has certainly been acting like he’s going to join the ever-expanding field of GOP contenders. In a recent interview with Greta Van Susteren, he unleashed on the President saying “Obama doesn’t know what he’s doing” and that under his leadership, America has become a “laughingstock.”
That said, it’s important to remember he’s a very, very good salesman.
Do you think Trump will run? What do you think about his border plan?
