Advisers suggest Trump rethinking mass deportation

Donald Trump Campaign Manager Kellyanne Conway and a key Trump surrogate, Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions, suggested Sunday that Trump is rethinking his plan to deport approximately 11 million illegal immigrants currently in the country.

Asked by CNN's Dana Bash if Trump continues to support "a deportation force removing the 11 million or so undocumented immigrants," Conway at first dodged the question.

"What he supports is to make sure that we enforce the law, that we are respectful of those Americans who are looking for well-paying jobs, and that we are fair and humane for those who live among us in this country," Conway said. "And as the weeks unfold, he will lay out the specifics of that plan that he would implement as president of the United States."

Pressed about whether the plan would include a deportation force, Conway replied, "To be determined."

The Republican presidential nominee has spent months promising to build a wall along the Southern border and to discourage illegal immigration by removing those who came to the U.S. without authorization.
