We’re going to inter and then transfer 70,000 to 2 million people and the rest will just run away. OK. Good luck with that.
In 1954 we caught abd deported 150,000 in about 6 months and almost 1 million left because they feared getting caught.
If we shut down the jobs and social services to the criminals we can do much better than that. If they can’t work or get welfare, they will leave and go back where they belong.
The ones you catch and deport are just a small fraction of the ones who will leave once the jobs, free medical and free schooling and other services dry up. We’ve already seen a few million leave because of the recession and the puny enforcement of the employment laws.
Ike got good results in 1954 and didn’t really do all he could have.
