You are talking about deporting the illegal migrants will be expensive, but you forgot to mention the real cost of keep them in the country at the expensive of the America taxpayer, which will be way more expensive than deporting them.

We could quite easily enforce hostile environment policies. Simply ramp up the legal consequences for employers and make the e-verify model mandatory nationwide. Cut access to public services for undocumented noncitizens and reinterpreting the 14th to require at-least one parent be a citizen in order to attain birthright citizenship. Encouraging them to leave voluntarily in tandem with ramping up deportation physically (i.e. hopefully 500k - 1mil annually) is the way to go.

You’re a lair!! Obama and Hilary were harsh on illegal immigration. It’s a new radical left idea to have open borders. Obama was the deporter a cheif.

Wow, there is so much misinformation here. Nobody is talking about invoking the insurrection act. Like what? Also there is no issue with deporting illegals and their original countries dont have grounds to refuse to take in their own citizens. A good 60% of this video is just flat wrong or conflates illegal and legal migration.

Imagine voting for your deportation

The key to addressing these issues isn’t for the government to simply 'deport' illegals; it’s to make life in the host country so dependent on legal status that it becomes nearly impossible for an illegal immigrant to prosper or live a normal life. What we see now is the opposite—some states don’t even require proof of legal residency to issue a driver’s license. When services like healthcare, education, and more are offered without any checks, why would anyone bother complying? A parallel society forms, where people learn to bypass hurdles with the help of others already entrenched in the system. The same applies to sending money back to their home countries.\n\nIf you impose harsh penalties—not just fines—on those who hire illegals, you’ll deter locals from exploiting their cheap labor. This would naturally lead to many illegals 'deporting' themselves in search of countries where they can blend in more easily. Furthermore, there’s a 'support system' that guides illegals on how to navigate life in the U.S. as undocumented residents, which should also be addressed. But instead, Democrats often seem to do everything possible to favor their presence, especially in certain cities.

Asylum scammers should be deported. Living in America is not a human right

Did I understood right when trump said he'd deport immigrants and familly ??? If this is the case she won't find any magas out there ????

This should not be controversial MASS DEPORTATIONS NOW!

Really don't care how long illegal's have been here, be that 1 year, 10 years or 30 years. They all need deported.

I seem to remember hearing about mass deportation during history…

Deportation of children is nothing compared to the children that the US and Israelis have slaughtered in Palestine.

Deporting undocumented immigrants could have significant economic consequences. Removing this labor force, which makes up the majority of farmworkers, would likely force farmers to hire American citizens at minimum wage or higher. This would drive up operating costs substantially and could lead to further increases in food prices. Additionally, the claim that undocumented immigrants are to blame for the country's economic woes is inaccurate. Many of the recent Latin American immigrants are fleeing economic collapse in countries like Venezuela, which has been exacerbated by U.S. tariffs and sanctions. As the world's reserve currency, the U.S. dollar gives the government significant power to influence the economies of other nations. Because of this BRICS was created. Several countries are trying to get a way from the dollar.

Let the MASS deportation begins!! This is what the Latinos voted for. Better have your green card / passport ready even for simple violations. I can’t wait!! ??.

Besides distinguishing between legal amd illegal immigration, it would be good to know the numbers behind the types of undocumented immigrants. Many of these 11 million plus people actually belong here in the US, such as the Haitians and the Deeamers (which y'all neglected to mention). But if your asylum claim has been rejected or if you've overstayed your visa (which accounts for many), then deportation is fair. But we need a grand compromise. A path to citizenship for Dreamers and people who are under special arrangements (again, like the Haitians), deportations for most others, with a new visa regime for people who have been working in parts of the economy that - to be blunt - Americans won't.\n\nAlso, most of the people here without proper documents are Mexican. And most came through Mexico. AMLO let that happen. Sheinbaum is going to need to address that. Many Mexicans are also greatly unhappy with what's been going on for the last few years.

That would be a lot of people to deport.

If you can’t even say deport the criminals you’re delusional and a threat to our country

If doing mass deportation illegal immigrants is controversial, something is wrong with world.

He won't deport. He'll jail for slave labor

So deporting people back to their country of origin, is like making Mexico pay for the wall .... not going to happen, because it will cost too much and the countries can refuse \n\nThe US people might now support the wall ... but it is still pointless, and largely does not work

The administration won’t deport every illegal immigrant, it won’t even come close. They’ll go after criminals and it will ramp up border security to slow the influx of new immigrants and allow the country to absorb the current immigrants

Can't they like deport the immigrants who committed various crimes and enact stricter border security and prevent immigrants from entering the country after he takes over rather than mass deportation.

I don;'t see anything controversial about deporting immigrants who break the law. If I went to Saudi Arabia and smoked weed, being sent home would be the least of my problems.

Everyone’s okay with deportation until its personal.

Nothing controversial about mass deportations. Europe should try it.\nThe American people are 100% behind it

Name the US code that says illegal immigrants cant be deported! An executive order, by definition, is not law.

1. Prevet illegal entering of people \n2. Deport people who entered or are inthe country illegally \n3. Call law abiding US citizens to work the fields and construction jobs\n4. Dont pay pennies on the dollar to foreign companies ' imports. Make them pay their employees as if ther were in the US, as well as the companies that work for those companies, so there's no 3rd world abuse of lower wages\n5. Keep up the perverse game of money

Im sure deporting half the farm workers will lower food prices, because im sure we can find Americans to pick food for minimum wage

$300 billion to deport all illegal immigrants? That's a budget buster on par with Trump's Tax-Cut-For-The-Rich. Good luck with that.

Deport them all the people demand it

They were able to build shelters to receive inmigrants they can be able to build shelters to deport them.

Large amounts of people are here double dipping in social programs while being paid under the table.\n\nWhy are any social programs paid by tax dollars going to non citizens in the first place?\n\nIf they cut access to those programs many will simply self deport.

How is it controversial? Deporting illegal migrants is just the application of law. The majority of people in the western world wish this would happen in their own countries.

If trumo wants to play it smart deport the criminals and those 1.3M already on the deportation list \n\nThrn hire more staff to process the claims of the remaining 11M deporting those who fail and goving citizenship to those who succed \n\nIts a weak policy but one that will shine a good light on him without rinos stopping his policy plans

They said they will be pragmatic with the approach. They will deport those criminals that crosses the border first and see what goes on from there

Migrants who committed crime should be deported together with their family ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Trump doesn’t have to invent a mass deportation strategy. He can copy the last president to deport over 3 million illegal immigrants- Barack Obama.

The figure the presenter quoted at 5.50minutes, deporting 1 million could cost 20 billion dollars. That works out at 20,000 US$ each. It would be easier to offer them 10,000US$ each to go. 90% would go and you would avoid untold problems. Also it would be cheaper. I don't suppose this will happen because Trumps intent is to be anti immigrant, rather than ant immigration.

So its basically sonething of an National Registrar for Citizens programme in India. \n\nContext - It all began in Northeast India, a tegion which has been neglected by the Indian government for quite a long time. The region is populated by Hindus speaking Assamese (in Assam), Bengali (in Tripura) & Meitei (in Manipur), with a large significant population of Tibeto-Burmese tribal populations following either Christianity, their own folk religions or integrated with Hindus & a minority of Bengali Muslims (mostly in Assam). This area was conquered by the British in 1820s, & with the British came a lot of non-native peoples (mostly Bengali speaking people), thereby making the noatives absolutely hate their presence. Following the Partition of India, many Bengali Hindus fleeing persecution migrated to Northeast India, fuelling further unrest. Over time, a large number of Bengali Muslims from what is now Bangladesh illegally migrated into the Northeast & integrated themselves with the local Muslim population (settled by the British), thereby changing the regional demographics based on religion. In the 1980s the increasing number of Bengali Muslims in the Northeast Indian state of Assam sparked an insurrection, which was put down after the Indian government promised to identify & deport illegal immigrants. Similar rebellions also broke out in other states of Northeast India by the tribal population against the rise in numbers of Bengali Hindus seeking shelter from religious persecution by Muslims in Bangladesh. However, very little progress was made in identifying illegal immigrants in Northeast India. After 2011 census revealed that Muslims outnumbered Hindus in Assam (but the combined Hindu-tribal populated outnumbered Muslims), talks began about setting a registrar & tribunal to speed up the process of identifying & deporting illegal immigrants from Bangladesh. This picked up pace after the Hindu nationalist BJP party came to power in the union government in 2014 & in Assam's state government in 2016. Around 2018, the Assam government started the National Register of Citizens to register the names of all people of the state provided that they can show proof of their/their parents being present in the state before 1971, inabilty to do so would cause to stand trial before a Foreigners' Tribunal to prove their citizenship or face deportation. This exercise was fraught with allegations of xenophobia, with Bengali Hindus, Gorkhas (settled by the British from Nepal to serve in the army) & Austro-Asiatic tribals (settled by the British to work as labourers in tea gardens) being branded as illegal infiltrators alongside Bengali Muslims. Those who were unable to prove their citizenship ended up rounded in detention centres, eventually to be deported out, which at that time many in Europe & USA had compared with Nazi concentration camps. \nIt would be interesting to see whether this same Nazi analogy is drawn up in case of the Trump administration doing the same as what happened in India.

75% of Americans want deportation. This isn’t a controversial Trump policy. Quit lying to people!!

I FULLY support massive deportation

I am definitely ok on cracking down illegal immigration and there should be criminal charges for employers that employ these migrant workers with slave wages. However with that being said to deport almost 20 million people that make up more than 50% agricultural workers in the country is a logistical nightmare. Once these migrants go these jobs will need to be filled presumably by Americans that command higher wages. I mean if Trump said he wanted to bring cost of groceries down this might not turn into a good plan.

I wonder how many trump voters will be deported by trump.

deport

how can wanting to deport *undocumented* migrants only be hardline? slight of hand

I guess Americans don't understand how this affects inflation. Usually with virtually no unemployment the consequence is inflation(loo NAIRU). The main reason that doesn't happen in the US is those immigrants with low paying jobs. If those get deported prices will go up, either because they would have to pay more to American workers or, more likely, those sectors like agriculture would banished and importing good is more expensive.\nIn any case it will make the average citizen poorer

I want him to deport so many illegals that I never have to press 1 for English again!

This is what American vote for him deport every single one.

It really isn't a difficult matter to solve. 1) Get the actual border under control. 2) Tell Mexico; and demonstrate it to them if necessary, that you'll close the border entirely if they don't get a grip on their own southern border. The result = Poof, goes the Mexican economy. 3) Round up the criminals.\n\nDo those 3 things and you'll bring some sanity back into the system which is all anyone really wants. It won't mean 11M get deported; perhaps 1-2M at most, but if there's a sense of order again, I can't see anyone caring. Then we can talk about a possible path to citizenship for the rest.

Why is it controversial? Isnt it logical to deport someone who enter your country illegally ?
