Donald Trump admitted that his immigration policy has been “too tough,” and he’s willing to work with Democrats on it going forward.
The post Trump Stuns 60 Minutes Correspondent by Admitting His Immigration Policy Has Been ‘Too Tough’ first appeared on Mediaite.
He truly has no principles. Not even right-wing principles. Just 100% opportunism.
FUN FACT: Every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation. They will say absolutely anything to get the result they want in the moment. A conservative will lie about what they want for lunch if they think it will benefit them in some way. Trump is just a reflection of that fact.
Liar. He won’t work with dems. He had a hat made that read VETO.
100% true! Pedo Pinocchio Donny can’t go more than a day without insulting the democrats or anyone who doesn’t agree with him.
You would have to be pretty naive (and possibly a newborn) to get stunned by anything that pathological liar says.
1-Too rough?! That psychopath deported dozens of united state citizens to salvador for their skin color! Majority are still there.
2-His love of the village people and his long and intimate relationship with Roy Cohn (closeted) is why I believe Trump is most probably a gay narcissist who prefers to hide it and marry a playboy model he’s unattracted to, to silence rumors, just like kevin spacey until he got outed.
First of all, no reason to believe a single word this narcisistic dementia turd has to say.
In some cases, paying taxes
THEY ALL FUCKING PAY TAXES. What they DON’T do is get most of the BENEFITS of those taxes.
Mostly they get the same benefits as the average American: roads, foreign wars, corporate subsidies.
Same interview the interviewer told Trump he will go to hell, lol.
More people need to tell him that. It’s not too late for him to change if the one in charge is merciful, but we all know he won’t
Turns out that heaven had a pretty tough immigration policy as well
Yet he promoted the racist asshole, Stephen Miller, to Chief of Staff
Dementia is a helluva drug
they’re working in a landscaping company, or working in a hotel
He’s just pissed because he likes to use underpaid immigrants at his hotels and golf courses.
Clearly. The racism in his comments is glaring.
He going to offer less obvious torture as his compromise. When rejected, he’ll cry about it then double down on the worst parts.
Who is going to reject him? The director of ICE? His boss, whom Trump appointed?
I bet his McDonald’s order was late that day and he asked why and someone was like the immigrants are afraid to show up for to work or something. Like just before he went on camera. Something like that.
Didn’t Melania complain because her friends were getting deported? They never care until it affects them personally.
My read is that he’s desperate. He’s aware of how badly the GOP lost and why, and is worried enough senators will flip that they can convict on impeachment. He’s trying to show he’s willing to cooperate with dems as long as they don’t make him, you know, die in prison in shame. He’s had all the power for two years and he’s used it like a toddler uses a bowl of crackers, slaming it around and making a mess until he gets what he wants - but now mom’s mad and he’s realizing that the US isn’t nearly as much of a fascist state as he lead his followers to think.
From what I’m seeinv, his behavior for the past week has been erratic above all else. He’s trying to find a position he can hold that’s both tolerable to him and produces the results he wants (to feel popular and respected and face no consequences). We’re seeing doubling down in some ways and offering concessions in other ways.
Him backing down like this is not at all surprising from what I’ve seen with narcissistic abusers. He’s trying to find a safe position or lie that will let him get back to doing whatever he wants and have his adoring fans cheer him on for it. I strongly suspect if consequences don’t actually come he’ll quit every concession he made, and if they do he’ll fully commit to doubling down.
He’s grieving, and flipping between the Anger and Bargaining stages. He’s already tried denial but was laughed at, though Pee Wee Himmler still tries the “Trump is more popular than ever” line to kiss his ass.
I think grief is a bad framing here. In grief you eventually move to acceptance. Given how he’s shown so many symptoms of narcissism and that he’s been acting as an abuser towards the country, I think it’s better to frame his behavior in the perspective of a narcissistic abuser. His erratic behavior looks like ego protection in the face of rejection from a victim. He’s lashing out then swearing he can change, just don’t leave. All he cares about is preserving his ego and power, the bargaining won’t last, he’ll just keep demanding more and more, pushing to return.
Trump almost seems like the type that would flip his principles in a heartbeat if he personally felt that he’d look more popular because of it. Given their whole shtick fell so hard now in 2026 I wouldn’t be surprised if he starts trying to spin being “for” some more popular issues.
Although he cares about personal enrichment over perceived popularity as well. So who knows what happens next.
He has no principles
if by “look more popular” you mean “be less likely to die in prison after an espionage conviction”, then yes, I agree with you.
Personally I could see him passing Medicare for all of a single payer system if his ego was stroked right. Fun fact I hate egotism so much this is legit a borderline foreign concept to me, the only reason I know its possible is because he is so egotistical that I legit can’t assume any other reasoning besides avarice and greed.
I mean realistically it’s pretty likely anything longer than a three year sentence would have him die in prison.
