you just described a very long path but does that path end at citizenship? >> i answered that question repeatedly. i am personally open after all that has happened and and tennessee years and the probationary status i'm open to allowing people to apply for a green card. >> there was a time for choosing as reagan put it where there was a battle over amnesty. and some chose to stand with president obama and others chose to stand with jeff sessions and secure the border. >> the path to citizenship is a hot topic in the republican party. who came out in that exchange. and what happened to a yes/no answer? yes, i still do support it. >> i tried especially not on this, i knew i wasn't going to get a yes or no answer but we got his flavor of yes so to speak. this is a hot topic.
