If Team Trump really means what they say, they should have just gone for mass deportations from the start.
Yeah instead of the whole “Alien enemies act” just deport them, deport them like he did in his first term..no act necessary, just say “You are in the US illegally you are GONE”
“If Team Trump really means what they say, they should have just gone for mass deportations from the start.”
There are a huge number of moving parts, most of which were not designed for mass deportations. You have to get rules, regulations and procedures for all sorts of agencies written, approved, distributed and train the workers on them. That Trump has done as much as he has in the time he has is, for government, a miracle.
Then there’s the logistics of actually doing the job. You don’t dare let anyone go hungry or a wound untreated or you’ll have Amnesty International and their cavalcade of Trump haters all over it with photos, video and expert testimony. While you and I don’t care, public image is a necessity. Screw this up and the whole thing will come to a screeching halt covered with three layers of naked pussy-hat wearing liberal women using their bodies to stop you from moving a bus full of illegals. Best to avoid all that.
Even if the process is perfect, $hit will happen, and bad publicity can kill everything. Best be a bit slow but get it unimpeachably right.
Unless the plan is to identify rift all the corrupt judges !
