On Thursday, President-elect Donald Trump declared that he will not “do business” with any country that refuses to take back all of the illegal aliens who have come to America from that country.
As the New York Post reports, President-elect Trump’s declaration was one of many things that he said in his lengthy interview with Time magazine after the outlet declared him to be 2024’s “Man of the Year.”
“I’ll get them into every country, or we won’t do business with those countries,” said the president-elect. “I want them out, and the countries have got to take them back, and if they don’t take them back, we won’t do business with those countries, and we will tariff those countries very substantially.”
“When they send products in, they will have substantial tariffs, and it’s going to make it very hard for them to do business with us,” he added.
As in 2016, President Trump campaigned heavily on the issue of mass immigration, vowing on the campaign trail to finish building the southern border wall that he started in his first term, and to carry out the largest mass deportation operation in American history. To this end, he announced former ICE Director Tom Homan from the first administration as his new “Border Czar.”
President-elect Trump has suggested a wide variety of tactics for convincing third-world countries to accept the illegals that are deported back to them, including tariffs and sanctions. The President of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, has already agreed to enforce immigration laws within Mexico to try to prevent any further illegal caravans from crossing through her country on their way to the United States.
“Whatever it takes to get them out. I don’t care,” President-elect Trump continued. “Honestly, whatever it takes to get them out. Again, I’ll do it absolutely within the confines of the law, but if it needs new camps, but I hope we’re not going to need too many because I want to get them out, and I don’t want them sitting in camp for the next 20 years.”
Time’s 2024 “Person of the Year” edition marks the second time that President Trump has won the award, following his first electoral victory in 2016. He was also consistently listed among the runner-ups for the award in 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020, thus marking six consecutive times that he was either a runner-up or the winner of the award, a longer streak than anyone else in the 97-year history of the publication’s award.
What a difference a change in president makes. Maybe Europe will get a clue.
Perfect!!
China has a lot of them here and Venezuela doesn’t do business with us. We’ll have to use those 3rd countries he spoke of.
remittance taxation
Look around your house and count the things you got from Haiti.
Zero.
Tariffs won’t budge the Haitian government, when it has one again.
The illegals can be dropped in international waters with a $100 bill in hand.
The drops can be announced and fishermen will fish them out.
It’s a screwdriver, not a hammer.
Trump’s got a full toolbox.
China wouldn’t accept theirs back from Japan, so there is a big chance it will be the same here.
That’ll put the cost onto Haiti and teach them not to create the problem again. Do the same with other embassies and their illegals.
“ Tariffs won’t budge the Haitian government, when it has one again.”
Cutting off the “aid” will.
L
That’s what I was thinking. Illegals are showing up from Uzbekistan, El Salvador, etc. whom we have no business/trade relationships with. I appreciate Trump’s motives but what about those countries?
Mexico facilitated their invasion of the US ... so Mexico needs to accept them and sort out where they go!!! Our responsibility is done once they leave the US!
PERIOD!
LOL
Send them to Ukraine, Afghanistan, Haiti - wherever.
Broadcast the first wave of deportations on every media channel and watch the rest of them self-deport.
MAGA!
Every single day brings new, unbridled JOY to the American people! I love waking up with a smile on my face.
Then cut off all foreign aid to them
Of course, foreign aid should go to zero anyway.
China won’t take them unless they have passports showing
that they are Chinese citizens. But the NGOs like Catholic charities took their passports and told them how to lie and claim political refuse status.
I can actually understand the PRCs point.
Send them to the Vatican, not Italy, the Vatican. Let Frank sell some of his golden tableware off to feed them.
Dump them all on Haiti. Isn’t the Clinton Foundation working to improve the economy of Haiti (sarc). I would imagine, if these illegal immigrants are as smart and as hardworking as the Democraps and their friends in the press say they are, they should be able to turn the Haitian economy around.
