Trump Plans ‘Largest Mass Deportation Effort Ever’ If Reelected

Former President Donald Trump plans on having the “largest mass deportation effort ever” if he is reelected as president, he told Time magazine recently. Since his 2016 campaign and presidency, Trump has taken a muscular approach to immigration, starting with his promise to “build the wall,” which barely made any progress during his term. 

Trump’s new plan would target millions of undocumented migrants across the United States. Efforts are comparable to former President Dwight Eisenhower’s “Operation Wetback” in 1954, which deported over one million migrants. The resources Trump needs for such a large-scale operation have been unclear. 

The former president has said he intends to utilize local law enforcement and the National Guard. Former Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials said such efforts would require expanding ICE, collaborating with the State Department and getting more funding from Congress. 

Trump’s campaign claimed there are 15 to 20 million illegal migrants in the United States after there was an influx under President Joe Biden‘s administration and the first Trump administration. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are an estimated 11 million.

Former acting director of ICE Tom Homan stated there are “systems in place that are very good at identifying people.”

“We would still prioritize criminals and national security threats first; they are the most dangerous for the country,” Homan told The New York Post. “But I would say no one is off the table. If you’re in this country illegally… then we’ll remove you.”

Former ICE chief of staff Jon Feere  said, “there’s no doubt that ICE would benefit from a significant increase in officers, agents and detention space.” 

However, Feere claimed ICE already has the room to detain more migrants than the Biden administration is holding. Both Feere and Homan said they would be involved in some way.

Trump has frequently complained that the U.S. does not get immigrants from “nice countries,” citing overwhelming white countries like Norway and Sweden.

  • Good. These people came here illegally rather than going through our existing formal process. They committed crimes by doing and should be treated as criminals. Not doing so is unfair to Americans and to all the legal immigrants who respected our country enough to apply correctly for citizenship. We are now also less safe since the open border allows free-flowing fentanyl, human trafficking, and only cursory checks against the terror watch list, and other vetting sources. There are an untold number of violent actors that the Administration openly admits have evaded those cursory measures, now living within our country, possibly (and likely) plotted violent acts against us. The craziness must be stopped. No other country has open borders and we should not have them either.
