Rush Limbaugh on the 2015 race;
“What explains Trump continuing to rise when it appears the excitement has waned or peaked or what have you? And I’m telling you what you think it is. I think it’s this immigration issue. I think the establishment and everybody in the media continues to miss this. Clearly the Republican establishment candidates miss it. The donors, of course, miss it. But I think in general most people analyzing this, either the professionals in the media, the professional political scientists, they know it’s a big issue. I don’t think they understand how deep it goes…
Here comes [Sen. Ted] Cruz saying this isn’t about civil rights… [that] the American people are being creamed economically with this issue. The American people are seeing their wages stagnate, their jobs vanish, and it’s happening on purpose. And if you want to have compassion, if you want to call this a compassion issue, the compassion needs to be for the 94 million Americans who are not working…
This issue is the issue that’s gonna determine the Republican primary winner…
Trump’s where he is because he has never wavered on what he intends to do regarding this issue. But there’s an unspoken aspect to pointing out the simple reality that to solve the illegal immigration problem all we need to do is to enforce existing law…
Have the wall, you make sure every employer hiring illegals is penalized, cut off the jobs. You’ll end up having self-deportation right there. But the big point is we already have every tool at our disposal. And the real point is, look at all the law, all the statutory law that we have that’s being ignored and unenforced. And that is the problem.”
