EXCLUSIVE: Rick Santorum Calls For ‘Orderly Process of Removal’ For Illegals

“Everybody is focusing on the impact of immigration policy on people who broke the law to come into this country in the first place and not on the people who are impacted by the people who came into this country,” Santorum told Breitbart News. “If we have this discussion about the impact on America and the people and how America is effected by this as opposed to … we have an obligation to people who are in this country illegally to treat them a certain way – I think it’s a much more successful approach to be able to connect with the American public and get good policy.”

Trump has touched a nerve, especially since the current generation of American voters hasn’t even been allowed to discuss the immigration issue before now.

The Journal caught up with Fiorina at the Iowa State Fair and asked if she had a response to Trump’s immigration plan, released over the weekend.
