JEB! pretty much did that for you and it's highlighted in blue. Though JEB! went and made a stricter statement by emphasizing that they have to learn English and can't get none of that government cheddar. So JEB!, is now harsher on illegals than Trump.

Edit: I can't begin to describe the level of perfect irony if the one thing Trump tries to soften his image on ends up being the one thing that drives away his racist base though. Assuming Coulter and the rest of the right wing rear end in a top hat squad aren't just panning for gold in the sewer once again.

"Illegal immigrants won't get citizenship and will need to pay back-taxes (ignoring that many illegal immigrants do pay taxes but anyway), this isn't an amnesty like Reagan's where they're getting citizenship. We need to deport them if they are criminals, but otherwise if they meet my previously stated conditions, we'll leave them alone (leaving them in an unspecified limbo of possible legal statuses) because a bunch of Great Americans have said that they think breaking up families isn't very compassionate. I hear that all the time and I agree."

He's implying two things:
that there will be a path to citizenship
thay there will be no path to citizenship

He's weaseling around saying either explicitly (he only says no general amnesty explicitly) so that his hardcore supporters assume there won't be one and more moderate Republicans assume there will be one so he can attract both at once. The problem is he's loving terrible at anything approaching subtlety so he makes it obvious he's just trying to play both sides unsuccessfuly.

Well, it's obvious to us. It might work on them. Remember, all the obvious stupid poo poo he's said has worked on his base so far. But his base is 9% of voters.
