Anti Trumpers act like Immigrants who are Legal will get Deported ??‍♂️ what’s next yall believe in many genders as well huh ?

Deportation cannot hurt the economy, in fact it would provide jobs to the many Afro Americans who are citizens and have been shut out of the job market in the country.

I see evidence of some people who think electing Trump will essentially rid this country of Hispanics, whom they are just so eager to be seen removed from here. That is both an extremely naive and very racist set of expectations. Many of the worst racists are going around telling random Latinos to pack their bags and some are telling Latino Trump voters like me that we're gonna get what we voted for. The ignorance is just astounding!\n\nNo, I'm not getting deported. I'm an American. Not legal not illegal. I'm from here. My family has called this place home for generations. If you think Trump will be deporting me just because of my surname, you're an idiot. Trump will be deporting ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. He will NOT be deporting Americans due to skin tone or surname. That's so ridiculous, you have to wonder how hateful you have to be to assume Trump will do that? Wicked.\n\nAfter the mass deportations, Hispanics will still be around in very large numbers to spook those idiot racists right out of their neighborhoods and I am glad. Many of us are from here and will be going nowhere. In fact, I hope they marry the racists daughters have brown children and then they will be forced to care about them and will eventually stop being such bigot POS.

Undocumented people pay rent,by food, even own business. Business that employ undocumented need workers. SAY GOODBYE too Kitchen Staff, landscapers, construction workers and many more. The Economy will tank.\nI hate stupid talk,trying to sound smart. Deport criminal, create a undocumented mandatory id registration 90 days..\n30% Flat tax for them based on income. No Citizenship ever\nAfter 10 years apply for Ss# regular tax. If good Citizens, but not able to vote

How many of the IGNORANT Latinos who want to be MEGA White was around when BUSH's Housing Crash Happened and Damn Near KILLED The WORLD ECONOMY ? ? ? MASS Deportation Jumping Food Prices and TARIFFS Killing CORPORATIONS and People Losing Job ----- MEANS ---- HOUSE PAYMENT DO NOT GET PAID . = ((( CRASHING THE AMERICAN ECONOMY ))) Into the WORST DEPRESSION THE WORLD WILL EVER SEE . ------------------ AND IT IS ALL ON THE IGNORANT LATINOS WHO WANT TO BE MEGA WHITE .

First Trump's administration is going to be jacked up with little known outliers with controversial and radical ideas. That is what Trump is attracted to. His ideas of tariffs and mass deportations are deplorable. They both disadvantage the US instead making it better. However, the tariffs may as well be a scam to get companies profits as when Trump says 10% on item A, companies are going to raise the cost of item A 12 to 15% or so and blame the cost increase on tariffs. For deportation's, I hope most people realize that many working the fields as low wage labor are very well illegals, but they are hired because they keep food costs low. Raising all prices for the poor Republicans will not be beneficial because prices on goods can increase 15% or more but their employer is certainly not going give them a 15% raise to match the cost of living. So Trump has already made the business environment good for more profits by planning to make life more expensive for everyone so business can absorb the additional profits. Probusiness politicians help businesses make money and that money comes from households and the government. And making the government spend more means the government needs to tax more. But TRump is cutting taxes for the people that have the most money. And Trump raising prices with tariffs justs makes households poorer and business richer. Naturally, the stock market will record highs when all the indicators are that business will be making much greater profits from households when Trump takes office.

Republicans may crash our economy by deporting all immigrants and migrants that work so many jobs and with their tariffs which will raise our grocery prices. Holy cow!

So how long will it take to deport everyone, how many years? What is the timeline?

How are the Republicans going to bring down grocery prices or home prices by deporting so many workers in those areas. People driven by racial hatred aren't able to think clearly.

This guy is in fantasyland. Notice how he says we’re going after the criminals 1st. That’s because the 15 million who have come through the caravans ARE NOT ILLEGAL. They have legally asked for asylum and they are awaiting their asylum hearings in immigration court. TRUMP can’t touch those. In Texas, many of these people have their 1st immigration court hearings in 2027 & 2028!! It usually takes at least 2 years to get to “trial,” then if you lose, you have 2 appeals and each appeal can take 2-3 years.\n\nEven the criminal aliens they pick up will be entitled to have their day in immigration court. This is nothing new. Bush and Obama deported millions of criminal aliens!! Criminal aliens have always been deported. This has never stopped, regardless of who’s the president. Look up ICE detention facilities. You have 2 big ones in California, Otay Mesa & Calexico; in Arizona it’s Florence & Eloy; in Texas it’s Harlingen. They’ve been operating before & during the Biden administration.\n\nAnd wait till businesses & employers start complaining. ?. Stephen Miller could’ve gone after the slaughterhouse meatpacking industry illegals during the pandemic. They were easy targets because they were the only ones working and ICE had the manpower to do it. Did he do it? Of course not!! America would’ve starved to death. \n\nMAGA nation has been played.

I voted Trump as a Latino, but the deportation will be the criminals in our eyes. Many of us with the farms and pick fruit and other hard labor that others don’t wan to do. Our economy wins when us Latinos do the work.

The incoming Trump administration will soon find deporting so many people will be too costly, that it will involve too big an undertaking and the military cannot be relied on to carry out acts of inhumanity. This will fail and so will he.

We know that the Republican Party is not a good faith actor and if they were going to only deport criminals, not many would be deported, but they hide behind that to just discriminate against cultures and races that they don’t like.

People really dont study history. A notable example of mass deportation impacting the economy is the mass repatriation of Mexican immigrants during the Great Depression in the 1930s. The U.S. government deported or encouraged the departure of hundreds of thousands of Mexican immigrants (many of whom were legally present and even U.S. citizens). This policy was partly driven by the belief that these individuals were taking jobs that could go to American citizens during a time of economic hardship.\n\nEconomic Impact in the 1930s:\n\n1. Labor Shortages: The sudden reduction in the Mexican labor force left many industries, especially agriculture and infrastructure, with labor shortages. Mexican workers had been essential to industries like farming, railroads, and manufacturing, where they took on physically demanding jobs that other workers were less willing to perform. As a result, productivity in these sectors declined.

Deporting illegal immigrants isn't as easy as many MAGA fans think it is. Everyone, even illegal immigrants, have the right to due process under the constitution. This means even if you round up illegal immigrants, they have a right to seek relief from deportation in front of an immigration judge, and this process could take several months or even years. Only after this process has been exhausted and an immigration judge gives the green light, can you go ahead and deport.

Opinion: \nMASS deportation is not going to happen. Increase in legal & fatal accidents will. Sad that people of minority races will be most affected...many because of racial profiling and will involve legal Americans & illegal immigrants.?

A massive shortage of agriculture workers, meat processing plant workers, domestic care, and many other critical parts of the US economy. Go for it, see what happens. Then there's the millions of children who are US citizens, you can't legally deport them, what do you intend to with them? Oh, and are you going to round up the millions of Canadians, Brits and other white English speaking illegals? Unintended consequences are a real bitch.

Even Latinos with legal status (the denaturalization clause) can be deported if they find they lied on their application, to enter, or who poses a threat to American democracy, (which the Supreme Court said could be interpreted in many different ways), or who entered the country and became legal, but whose life was not in any danger to where they needed assylum

What about the immigrants that have been working and contributing and trying to get citizenship for decades and the spouses of American citizens still fighting for their right after paying taxes for many years - are we raiding all families homes and splitting up kids from parents? Did we ever find the families for the 800+ kids that had no details taken still unable to contact families that trump split them from the first time? Or does that not matter cause it’s not YOUR kids? Huh. When they come and create the detention camps and ship people back to places they haven’t been in decades who cares right they have been paying American taxes and have no rights while their years of waiting for their citizenship - fix that maybe so those who are working, contributing can stay and work in the jobs they have and keep families together. But no let’s demonise EVERY single person because most who voted are ignorant just like abortion about the actual application and situations that arise within a MASSIVE spectrum. Just dumb it down to ANY illegal, and does that also include the legal folks that GOP decide aren’t anymore just cause they came from elsewhere on an invitation? Springfield residents I would suggest if you haven’t or can’t left the state already you find points of contact for legal battles. \n\nWelcome to the start of your facist, authoritarian, white nationalist, dictator era AMERICA. What follows was your own doing. To any woman that voted republican - No matter your faith there is no well I always vote republican defence. Women have and will die for lack of healthcare, their deaths are on your hands and every republican. And so we are clear there are ZERO babies ‘executed’ after birth cause anyone changed their mind. The deaths of fetus carried to term are due in almost all cases to massive complications, unviable development or other mitigating issues. Those babies were wanted. They were mourned. \n\nWhere is the magic money for all these deportations coming huh? Reconciliation won’t pay the bills, and once the workers who do the labour that effect service, hospitality, food supply the costs of things will rise. But apparently multiple Wall Street and top economists telling you outright that trumps plans will tank the economy still you don’t believe. Even though Biden landed the best recovery in the world post covid and gop. When musk and the rich are getting another tax break and the costs of food and gas rise who do you blame then? If it wasn’t for all the innocent ppl about to suffer I would wish you welcome to just implode with this vile plan but the dictators like putin are already rubbing their hands together in gleeful joy. People of Ukraine I am sorry. People of Yemen, Syria, Palestinian civilians, Israel hostages, lgbtq+ communities, non white Christian faith followers, blended families, veterans, minorities or anyone fleeing violence, death or persecution - there will be no aid or help by the GOP Trump administration and in fact I fear you will be targeted by hate and ignorance or selfishness and greed. But I hope enough columns of good remain to shield as many as possible from what is in their plans. Folks who voted for gop while being in the targeted communities you need to take a long hard look in the mirror and soon you may experience your choices in vivid regret. \n\nFor those who still have a conscience I share your heartbreak and wish the future 4yrs pass quickly and a flicker of hope that there is still good enough people who will offset the hate, division and evil that’s about to erupt all over the country. ?️

We cannot comply with this sick evil plan of Trump. States need to exert their rights. Deporting so many people would result in the violation of their human rights.

Deport Melanoma, I mean Melania. I wonder how many Republicans are going to be picking fruit. You were right there refusing to pass legislation, who are you kidding?

This guy talking will have to wait and see if it’s possible or not to deport that many people. I say they won’t get them all but at least 60% of them NEED to go home.

These idiots have no idea what the ramifications of deporting so many people will be. Fining employers is not even the tip of the iceberg. They have no idea. Just imagine the cost of housing and the increase this would lead to. They have literally no idea.

Yes, deport EVERY illegal migrant. The people who voted for this should feel the impact of this completely. Increasing the penalties on business who employ them will ALSO be a great tactic. YES... destroy the domestic food supply chain, and many manufacturing supply chains, that relies overwhelmingly on migrant labor. We voted for this. Let's get it done.

There are so many illegals at my job will there be a phone number we can call to get them out? Have someone come and get them? I want them deported now!

This is the stupidest thing ever, when they deport people they send them back to where they came from, how many “illegal” Canadians are we worried about here? \n\nLegacy media doing its part to stoke the fires of idiocy and ignorance as per usual.

When the courts overturned RvW (in Biden's face), it only made me wonder why America would need so many people in 30 years. \nAs a Canadian, I think about the fresh water and the north passage opening due to warmer weather and the enivitable fight for control. \n\nMass deportation atleast gives me hope that it's production and workforce preparation .

Deporting undocumented immigrants will cause many small businesses to struggle. Who will do the work that most people don’t want to do—like agricultural jobs, dishwashing, and lawn care? Undocumented immigrants contribute more to this country than many realize, and they also pay taxes through their purchases. Food prices will rise if we deport them because most Americans won’t take these jobs for low wages. If Americans take on these roles, they are likely to demand higher pay, which would increase costs across the board. In the end, we would be hurting ourselves and our finances. It’s already challenging enough, with many Americans living paycheck to paycheck. I believe that a mass deportation of undocumented immigrants would be a serious mistake.

Im so confused why its a problem to deport illegal, undocumented immigrants for so many. I would like to understand. People need to be legally in a country.

Dude is making so many excuses why they shouldnt deport ILLEGAL aliens

Whilst in principle it seems reasonable to deport illegals, with certain caveats, there will be an economic affect. He talked about pressurising businesses who hire illegals - who will backfill those jobs - and at what cost? How many citizens are prepared to become fruit pickers for a pittance?

They won't be comming here,Canada will be deporting many as well

I can't wait to see how Latinos are going to react when he ignores the fact many of them voted for him and they are going to deport family members?

Who will be working at the turds golf resorts? I scared myself when my mind went to assignments of some being deported or blacks ? The text going around to students and many others may have used plantation instead of golf courses. It’s the people still in the dark that backed this, Elon isn’t alone. Which corporations donated. What about the rich people in the room that day he asked for money and promised them tax cuts. Personally I think with help from foreign tech they managed to cheat. Democrats have to investigate

There are about 800,000 police in the ENTIRE Country... If there are 16,000,000 illegals in the country, Each Police person would have to stop whatever they are doing and, on average, capture 20 illegals... Given that each of these captured people are entitled to plead their case before a judge, How many people will actually be deported before Trump exits??? How much will that cost??? and What happens to the USA while all the Police are engaged in doing Trump's wishes??? What they don't tell us about The Wall is that it's been breached more than 3,000 times and the climate in that area is already degrading the metal and concrete... Trump tried this before in his first term and could not get it done... What makes this Senator think it's going to work this time???

Deport millions of illegal immigrants is a goal. However, many of them are working in farms or constructions. Without them, we may face a big shortage of labors. And, those industries may suffer because most of the Americans don't want to do this kind of works.

Donald Trump is not going to be tough on world leaders. He needs to save his dying family business and get as many Trump Towers built overseas while he's still alive. There's a Trump Tower in the Philippines. There are Trump Towers in India. So don't get excited. There won't be a mass deportation.

Many Trump voters will be deported. Excellent!!!

Regardless of how you feel about illegal immigrants, mass deportations will result in 1. An increase in prices, especially food, considering many if not mostworkers in agriculture are illegals 2. A contracting economy overall, considering illegal immigrants spend money on the economy. Reducing the population by 15 million will result in a recession.

This is bs. There are many people that voted for Trump that is against mass deportation of law abiding illegal immigrants, but are for deporting violent criminals and securing the border and keeping illegal immigration out. What about the dreamers? They should be exempt from deportation. They speak English, they've assimilated into American culture, they own businesses and most importantly, being deported back to Mexico is technically being deported to a foreign country they have never lived in.

I voted for Harris and despise Trump, however, I'm hoping Repubs do exactly what they've been wanting to do for YEARS, which is to finish their fence/wall along the ENTIRE border, deport ALL illegal/undocumented migrants, many of them Trump supporters, and shut about the stupid border already!! Americans are exhausted with the topic!!! I live in Arizona, I know of some illegal migrants close to me, they support Trump, and I'll be calling ICE on them on Jan 21st and will demand they get deported, and will work to find ALL migrants who supported Trump, and get them out of here!! Trump will crash the economy again, of course, so Dems will have to come in and clean it up again, as they always do after Republicans.

People and companies who hire should always have been prosecuted. It wasn't done because so many businesses do it, they need the cheap labor. Deport those cheap workers and see what happens to prices in the USA

You would think the people and media would stop the gaslighting and yet they keep going, so even the children yes the children of you deport their parents the children have to go with them, why break a family up. Send them back to their country, the Biden administration let way too many in and I think they know this. I drove through an old neighborhood the other day, and it looked like Mexico or El Salvador, and that’s not being malicious stating facts.

CNN always promoted that it was too difficult to deport all these people. That's what they said about making Jerusalem the capitol of Israel. There are many other examples. If you can transport illegals all over the country, we can transport them out of the country.

Crops will rot in the field prices will rise inflation will skyrocket deficits will outpace GDP. I understand deporting criminals but why deport farm workers and service industry employees who have been here peacefully for many years. They are doing the jobs that many Americans do not want to do.\nIf you don’t understand that then you are not thinking about what is best for the country and hard working immigrants.

The reality is that these immigrants, illegal or not, do work that many others don’t want to do. There could be a solution to make them permanent citizens, but to just deport them will have massive consequences that will impact everywhere, Trump voters too. Remember that when the prices go up and some things aren’t available

Democrats should stay out of the deportation fight (getting rid of criminals is fine), but let MAGA and the business community fight it out. Obama deported many people, but it never significantly harmed the economy. If Trump carries out his plan, we will reach a critical mass where there won't be enough people to pick the crops, work in the meat processing industry, hospitality, construction, etc. Costs will rise significantly, and we will experience shortages.

A functioning immigration system must remove illegal aliens \n \nRecent disclosures by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) that hundreds of thousands of criminal immigrants are at large in the United States raise the question of why the Biden-Harris administration isn’t doing more to remove them. Increasing deportations is a necessary part of fixing what Vice President Kamala Harris refers to as “our broken immigration system.” She is right to describe it that way. But the administration in which she serves was the one to break it, not least by impeding ICE deportations. \n \nCurrently, about 1.3 million aliens under final orders of removal — those who have received due process and been ordered deported — are on ICE’s “non-detained docket” of 7 million individuals. These individuals include criminal aliens, whom Congress has directed ICE to detain and remove. But ICE can’t remove many of them because they’re from so-called recalcitrant countries — nations that refuse to provide the U.S. government with the travel documents it needs to facilitate the return of their nationals. The Supreme Court has held that, with only narrow exceptions, even detained criminals due to be deported must be released after six months absent a “significant likelihood of removal in the reasonably foreseeable future.” If ICE can’t get their travel documents, there’s no likelihood of removal. \n \nFortunately, Congress gave the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) a tool to force recalcitrant countries to comply. Unfortunately, the Biden-Harris administration won’t use it. Under section 243(d) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), once DHS notifies the State Department that a foreign country “denies or unreasonably delays” the return of its nationals, the secretary of state must “order consular officers in that foreign country to discontinue granting immigrant visas or nonimmigrant visas, or both,” to nationals of that country. The George W. Bush and Obama administrations used that authority sparingly, each restricting visa issuance to just one country in order to force compliance. As my colleague Mark Krikorian recently noted, “Trump made much wider use of it, and got results.”\nSOURCE, CENTER FOR IMMIGRATION STUDIES

Illegal Alien Released Into U.S. Allegedly Pulls Girl Into Van and Sexually Assaults Her \nMay 10, 2024 \nr \nIn another case of a horrifying and preventable crime, an illegal alien in Florida is accused of grabbing an 11-year-old girl, dragging her into a van and sexually assaulting her. \n \nThe incident unfolded when the victim’s mother noticed her daughter was not inside the home and went outside to look for her. \n \nWhile walking around outside, the mother noticed a van with her daughter inside. That’s when she banged on the van and asked the man what he was doing inside with her daughter. The suspect, Marvin Perez Lopez, then apologized and asked for forgiveness as he ran out of the van. \n \nThe girl told investigators that the suspect grabbed her and told her to get into the van, where he abused her. She says she tried to get out of the vehicle, but Lopez grabbed her again and pulled her back in. \n \nPalm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw says the illegal alien suspect confessed to the sexual assault and will face trial in the U.S. before he can even think about being deported. \n \nAccording to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, Lopez is from Guatemala and entered the United States illegally as a single adult male in January 2024 after crossing through Mexico. He made it to Palm Beach County later in January. How Lopez trekked from the southern border to Florida is unclear. Did an NGO facilitate his travel? It’s a question that should be answered. \n \nLopez, like so many illegal aliens entering the country under President Biden’s de facto open-borders policies, willingly turned himself into Border Patrol, likely with the expectation he would be released with a court date years in the future. He was given a notice to appear in 2027 and released on his own recognizance. \n \nThe United States has a full repatriation agreement with Guatemala, and Lopez could have been sent back. Instead, he was free to roam in the United States for five years. \nSOURCE, FAIR US org

Anytime something happens they want to blame immigrants. it happened in the great depression, we were blamed for taking jobs and they deported many mexican Americans that had to be later repatriated same crap again immigrants being blamed for stuff and again mass deportation, I want to see white children working the fields and the service jobs
