Trump spokesperson: It will be a "virtual" wall and a "rhetorical" deportation. [View all]

“I have called it a virtual wall,” Rep. Chris Collins (R-NY) told The Buffalo News. “Maybe we will be building a wall over some aspects of it; I don’t know.”

...

“I call it a rhetorical deportation of 12 million people,” Collins explained. “We’re not going to put them on a bus, and we’re not going to drive them across the border.”

Realizing he would probably be in trouble for revealing what Trump actually believes in the press, Collins was quick to clarify. “I’m not speaking for Donald. Those were my opinions.”

A virtual wall? Like... laws?

And a rhetorical deportation? Like... bashing them in racially charged speeches?
