trump says there's "no price tag" for deportation.

"We obviously have to make the border strong and powerful and, and we have to — at the same time, we want people to come into our country," he said. "And you know, I’m not somebody that says, 'No, you can’t come in.' We want people to come in."

As a candidate, Trump had repeatedly vowed to carry out the "largest deportation effort in American history." Asked about the cost of his plan, he said, "It’s not a question of a price tag. It’s not — really, we have no choice. When people have killed and murdered, when drug lords have destroyed countries, and now they’re going to go back to those countries because they’re not staying here. There is no price tag."

Trump says there's 'no price tag' for his mass deportation plan

In an exclusive interview with NBC News, Trump talked about his campaign promise to carry out the largest deportation of immigrants in U.S. history, regardless of cost.

And yet there is a price tag. Not only for the economy (removing that many workers is inflationary because it will drive up the price of labor. Plus it will reduce GDP), but for the government.

How much could it cost?​

Vice President-elect JD Vance has estimated Trump's actions could result in 1 million people being removed from the country each year, a pace the nonpartisan American Immigration Council estimated would cost about $88 billion annually. To deport all the people in the U.S. without authorization would take about a decade and cost nearly a trillion dollars, the council said.

Trump has promised mass deportations. Can he do it in his 2nd term as president?

Former President Donald Trump could be poised to deliver on one of his most fervent campaign promises: to deport millions of undocumented immigrants.

I guess the thrill he got from hearing the screams of immigrant children after being separated from their parents wasn't quite satisfying enough. Now he'll be breaking up families who have lived here, yes illegally, for many years. I personally know someone here in CO who is married to an illegal alien. That marriage is over if the ACLU isn't able to stop Don in the courts.

Poor little thing, illegal aliens put themselves in a position to be deported, don't blame anyone but them. If Trump is smart about it, he'll give them 180 days to leave on their own. If they don't then you ship them home with nothing but the clothes they're waring. All their property, would then belong to the government to be auctioned off. If given that choice, what would you do?

You quoted them like they were reasonable.

Again, dumbass, why didn’t you go after the source instead of me? It’s called bigotry and hate, that was your motivation, asshole! A lot of exposing of who you really are.

 

[SweetSue92]

Isn't it interesting that the party of "law and order" is just fine with illegals staying here ILLEGALLY, taking money from American schools, American hospitals and God only knows what else

During his presidency, Donald Trump implemented several immigration policies and laws. Some notable ones include:

• Executive Order 13769 (January 2017): Also known as the "Travel Ban," this order suspended the entry of immigrants and non-immigrants from seven predominantly Muslim countries (Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen) for 90 days. The order was later revised and expanded to include additional countries.
• Executive Order 13780 (March 2017): This order revised the previous travel ban and removed Iraq from the list of countries. It also added a provision that allowed for case-by-case waivers.
• Zero-Tolerance Policy (April 2018): This policy directed the Department of Homeland Security to refer all individuals who crossed the border illegally for prosecution, resulting in the separation of thousands of migrant families.
• Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP) (January 2019): Also known as the "Remain in Mexico" policy, this program required asylum seekers to wait in Mexico for their court hearings in the United States.
• Public Charge Rule (August 2019): This rule allowed the government to deny green cards to immigrants who were deemed likely to rely on public benefits, such as Medicaid or food stamps.
• Asylum Ban (July 2019): This rule prohibited migrants from seeking asylum in the United States if they had passed through another country on their way to the border.

These policies and laws were met with controversy and were the subject of numerous court challenges. Some were ultimately blocked or overturned by the courts, while others were repealed or replaced by the Biden administration.

During his presidency, Joe Biden has implemented several immigration policies and laws, some of which have reversed or modified those put in place by his predecessor, Donald Trump. Some notable ones include:

• Executive Order 14010 (February 2021): This order established a task force to reunify migrant families separated under the Trump administration's Zero-Tolerance Policy.
• Executive Order 14012 (February 2021): This order restored the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, which allows certain young undocumented immigrants to remain in the United States without fear of deportation.
• Executive Order 14013 (February 2021): This order revoked the Trump administration's travel ban targeting predominantly Muslim countries.
• Executive Order 14020 (March 2021): This order established a new process for asylum seekers to apply for protection in the United States, and reversed the Trump administration's Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP) program.
• Executive Order 14031 (June 2021): This order established a new process for the Department of Homeland Security to consider the use of expedited removal procedures for certain asylum seekers.
• The American Dream and Promise Act (March 2021): This bill, which passed the House of Representatives but has not yet become law, would provide a pathway to citizenship for certain undocumented immigrants, including DACA recipients and those with Temporary Protected Status (TPS).
• The U.S. Citizenship Act of 2021 (February 2021): This bill, which was introduced in Congress but has not yet become law, would provide a pathway to citizenship for certain undocumented immigrants, increase funding for border security, and reform the asylum system.

Additionally, the Biden administration has also taken steps to:

• Increase the annual refugee admissions cap to 125,000 for fiscal year 2022
• Expand the use of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for certain countries
• Implement a new policy allowing certain asylum seekers to apply for work permits while their cases are pending
• Increase funding for immigration courts and asylum processing

These policies and laws aim to reform the U.S. immigration system, provide relief to certain immigrant populations, and address the root causes of migration.

Regarding immigration, which US propaganda machine is more powerful: CNN, NBC, or FOX? What do you think? lol.

 

[struth]

Yes, it's inflationary. So is Don's tariff plan. Though I don't think anyone can say with certainty how any of trump's promises will play out. He may have been lying about his intentions. That would certainly be better for the country if he was.

Harris, and xiden’s border surge of illegals was inflationary, drove up cost of groceries by 25.8 percent

Undoing their lawless admin policies will do the opposite

How many migrants entered U.S. under Biden​

Trump’s claim: “Twenty-one million people came in over the last three years with them,” he said. “We’re not going to have a country left. There’s no country that can sustain this.”

Fact check: It’s likely far less. Border agents recorded roughly 10.5 million “encounters” with migrants nationwide since President Biden took office, a number that includes millions of rapid expulsions and multiple attempts by the same person to cross. Others were placed in deportation proceedings and have since been removed from the country.

Fact-checking Trump's biggest claims on immigration: How do they measure up?

The former president says migrants are voting illegally, eating pets in Springfield, Ohio, and coming from jails and mental institutions.

Then shouldn't his orangeness be planning to deport close to 30M people? Or maybe, just maybe, he was lying.

Prove it.

Since you seem to be an expert in this area, how much food inflation will there be as a consequence of deporting millions of agricultural workers who will need to be replaced by Americans being paid a higher wage?

[berg80]

Rather than spend hundreds of billions of dollars on mass deportation, we could spend the money more wisely on.................

Alternative Investments for National Growth​

These staggering sums could be used for untold other benefits to this country. For the same costs as pursuing a strategy of mass deportations of one million people a year, sustained over 10-plus years until 13.3 million people have either been deported or left on their own, the United States could:

• Build over 40,450 new elementary schools in communities around the nation.
• Construct over 2.9 million new homes in communities around the nation.
• Fund the Head Start program for nearly 79 years.
• Pay full tuition and expenses for over 4.3 million people to attend a private college for four years, or over 8.9 million people to attend an in-state public college for four years.
• Buy a brand-new car for over 20.4 million people.

A single year of a million-deportation regime, with its $88 billion price tag, would cost:

• Nearly twice the annual budget of the National Institutes of Health.
• Nearly four times the budget of NASA.
• Nearly three times as much as the federal government spends on child nutrition.
• More than the government gives out in the Child Tax Credit program.
• Eighteen times more than the entire world spends each year on cancer research.

After we deport Biden/Harris's 15 million illegals, there are still millions
of illegals who can help harvest our food.

And if not, we can add more temporary agriculture workers.

After we deport 15 million illegals, we'll need fewer schools.

Nothing like liberal bad math.

Or for more crime and higher housing costs due to millions of new illegal aliens.

Ridiculous. GDP is estimated to decline between 4 and 6% if his mass deportation plan is carried out.

Mass Deportation: Devastating Costs to America, Its Budget and Economy

The mass deportation of millions of undocumented individuals would be tremendously expensive and would have a catastrophic impact on our economy—one that would be expansive and impact every American. The American Immigration Council analyzes the fiscal costs and economic impacts of such a mass...

www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org

Beyond the direct financial cost of mass deportation, we also estimated the impact on the U.S. economy. Due to the loss of workers across U.S. industries, we found that mass deportation would reduce the U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) by 4.2 to 6.8 percent. It would also result in significant reduction in tax revenues for the U.S. government. In 2022 alone, undocumented immigrant households paid $46.8 billion in federal taxes and $29.3 billion in state and local taxes. Undocumented immigrants also contributed $22.6 billion to Social Security and $5.7 billion to Medicare.

/—-/ Just like the election results, you’re WRONG WRONG WRONG.

Elon Musk has talked about temporary hardship is a possibility. If it's not then he shouldn't say it.
