The headlines are full of stories about illegal aliens: They’re raping children, murdering young women, crashing their cars into children, assaulting and murdering police officers…and the list goes on. However, we’re told that we’re stuck with them. Well, we’re not. In the 1950s, when there was political will—and a plea from Mexico to send its citizens home—we did mass deport illegal aliens. Like Pakistan deporting its illegal Afghan aliens, El Salvador jailing its gangs, or Argentina balancing its budget in nine weeks, it just requires political will.
I made a lot of assertions about illegal aliens in my opening paragraph. Let me back them up with just a few examples.
The above are just single points of evidence, of course, but they reflect myriad reports that fill the news regularly. And it doesn’t matter whether illegal aliens are more or less likely to commit these crimes than citizens or people here legally. What matters is that each of these horrible crimes wouldn’t have happened if our government had obeyed the law.

Venezuelan migrants linked to more crimes in U.S., but Maduro shuts door on all deportations
We need to deport them. We also need to pass legislation that English is the official language. If you can’t read and speak English you need to bring your own translator. There is an app for that BTW.
Just stop the foreign aid checks to Venezuela.
It worked the first time Trump used it.
“Under what authority…”
Existing law gives the President all the authority he needs.
But you knew that.
L
u bribe them
That didn’t work out well in Trump’s first term, though more talk than actually action, and fleeting at best, sometimes stopped by courts. Authority is no good and not real when it gets stopped before delivering results. How would it be any different in a second term?
Dollar death 98.452.
If we’re counting on self deportation banking on the dollar collapsing-a collapse that has yet to begin with zero suitable replacement currently in existence-it’s going to be a long wait.
He will deport millions and be called a racist, fascist 258 times/hr and the def not MAGA folks will reply over and over that no number deported is enough.
I will remind folks again in 2019 Trump got Turkey out of Syria in 9 days. A world record for an Arab to heel. All it took was shutting the Turkish banks out of the global financial system.
👍Ding Ding Ding!
The US has given Venezuela nearly $2.7B dollars since 2017. We can start with foreign funding to them and others who won’t take them back. Further, block ALL remittances from private parties here to them. Do it to all of them.
I hope you’re wrong about the collapse of the dollar, but I agree that self-deportation will play a significant role. The penalty for remaining here will have to be greater than the consequences of going back. We sent a man to the moon, so we can do this if we really want to. It’s a question of will not ability.
Trump needs to be prepared to override a barrage of lawsuits and obstructionist tactics from the left. That, more than anything else, will be the biggest obstacle. To do this properly, anyone on the left who interferes with the operation needs to be treated as a domestic enemy.
Absolutely.
That was followed by, arguably, the golden age of America. We built the interstate system, dramtically increased the standard of living, became the dominant worlds superpower (at the time considered a tie with USSR but now we know they were weaker) and surpassed the Soviet space program.
living standards continued to rise then peak in 1980. Not long afterwards Reagan made his greatest mistake and passed the first amnesty. It’s been dropping more or less since.
Diversity is a great lie of the left. It’s what the USA had in common that made us special. Immigration worked because it was controlled and merit based.
Ohh AND I should add we STILL got the yards mowed, beds made, tables served and crops picked.
You know..all those jobs “Americans cant and won’t do”.
Deportation is not the solution; 90% of them will be back within a week or two.
The new citizen baby can stay, but would more likely go with mom....most of ‘em anyway.
Trump could make an offer Mexico, etc. would not want to refuse.
Nonsense. Deportation in conjunction with reinstituting meaningful border security is the ONLY solution.
Yep...executive order with no worries for a 1 timer Prez.
Progressives will bitch & moan, but 2/3rds of the country will applaud.
Trump has expressed sympathy for the ‘Dreamers’, so he could give the nay-sayers that appeasement.
As for deportees returning....the border will be closed on day one, walls built in year one, border guarded by various means until wall is finished.
Make them all non hirable and no hand outs. Period
Deport them immediately or put them in Concentration Camps temporarily (but, you know - we’ll be kinder than the Nazi’s were to prisoners because Conservatives=Nazi’s these days!) and THEN deport them.
GTFO of my country, illegal INVADERS! Who ELSE puts up with this?!?!?
If something isn’t done about this SOON - expect another 9/11 on steroids. The ‘cells’ are already here. Quit fooling yourselves.
P.S. REBUILD THE WALL!
