Billionaire GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump provided a statement to Breitbart News regarding Mitt Romney and Jeb Bush’s attacks on his immigration stance, reiterating his support for powerful border security and an immigration policy that serves American interests. “Mr. Trump is concerned about the 90 million Americans that are outside our workforce, a Trump adviser told Breitbart News. “Jeb Bush wants to import more low-skilled, unemployed foreigners who will further drive down wages for the middle class.” Read Trump’s statement below: I am very proud to be fighting for a strong and secure border. This is a very important issue, which all the other candidates would have ignored had I not started this important discussion. I will fix the border — no one else knows where to begin. Today, Jeb Bush once again proves that he is out of touch with the American people. Just like the simple question asked of Jeb on Iraq, where it took him five days and multiple answers to get it right, he doesn’t understand anything about the border or border security. In fact, Jeb believes illegal immigrants who break our laws when they cross our border come “out of love.” As everybody knows, I never said that all Mexicans crossing the border are rapists. Jeb is mischaracterizing my statements only to inflame. As seen with the tragic and unnecessary death of Kathryn Steinle this past week in San Francisco at the hands of an illegal immigrant who was previously deported five times, our unsecured border is a national security threat. Jeb will never be able to secure our border, negotiate good trade deals, strengthen our military or care for our veterans. The biggest difference between Jeb and me on the border is that I believe in securing our border by building a wall, which will protect our safety, economy and national security. This is a vital step in Making America Great Again!

Unless they kill him Donald Trump is our next president.
You are dreaming. First, the GOP establishment won't let him win the Republican nomination. Second, even if he could win the nomination the demographics won't allow him to win the Presidency. In 1980, Reagan won 56% of the white vote and he won the Presidency. In 2012, Romney won 59% of the white vote and lost. The problem is that white voters as a percentage of the electorate fell from 88% in 1980 to 72% in 2012. Whites will probably be lower than 70% of the electorate in 2016. People who claim the GOP can regain the White House by getting a larger share of the white votes are not facing reality. Here is the math: Let's say that the 2016 GOP nominee repeats Reagan's 1984 record performance with white voters -- 66%. 66% of 70% is about 45.2%. Blacks comprised 13% of the electorate in 2012 and Romney won 6%. 13% * 6% = 0.78%. Asians comprised 3% of the electorate and Romney won 26%. 3% * 26% = 0.78%. Latinos comprised 10% of the electorate and Romney won 27%. 10% * 27% = 2.7%. 45.2% + 0.78% + 0.78 + 2.7% = 49.46%. Even with Reagan's record of 66% of the white vote, the next GOP will lose the popular vote and probably the election unless they can get more minorities to vote for him/her. Donald Trump will not attract more minorities. Percentage of the electorate that is white: 1980 - 88% Unless the GOP can find a way to appeal to minorities, they will never win the White House again.

Yes. 72% of those who cast a ballot were white. But only 64% of registered white voters cast a ballot. Meaning that if white voters become motivated on some issue or cause and turn out to vote, we're talking about millions of people that cannot be matched by any minority bloc. (Of course, they're not all Republicans.)
