Eisenhower did something similar in the 1950s

"Operation Wetback"

Can you imagine the uproar over that these days? LOL!

That wouldn't go over well today, definitely not the name. Enforcing the laws as they're caught and stopping the job magnet a better way to go.

After the illegals were deported Eisenhower setup a guest worker program for the farmers and it seemed to work out well. Didn't have the problems we are now.
