NEWARK, N.J. (AP) – Donald Trump’s position on health care? Repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act “with something terrific.”
On what do with the estimated 11 million immigrants currently living in the country illegally? “We’re going to have plenty of time to talk about it,” he told reporters during a recent trip to the U.S. border with Mexico.
His plan to increase job growth? “You’ll see details. But basically I’m telling you I’ll just bring them back. It’s called negotiation,” he said.
As Trump pushes ahead with an establishment-bucking campaign for the Republican presidential nomination, the real estate developer and former reality TV star’s decidedly unconventional approach to politics includes foregoing – so far – any substantive discussion of public policy.
It’s one way, among many, that Trump stands out in the 2016 race.
