Even if they were willing, physically moving 20 million people is a huge undertaking that the US really does not have the ability to do. Not only would the cost be outrageous, but coordinating it in 50 states would be an infrastructure nightmare. Now imagine if 25% of them flat out refuse. What are we going to do, shoot them? I really don’t think genocide on home turf will go over well.
The most important bit about this isn’t how it’ll be done. It’s to convince people that a certain group of people is the cause of all of their problems.
Republicans would cheer a domestic genocide.
What are we going to do, shoot them?
Yes.
I really don’t think genocide on home turf will go over well.
See above.
He and his Republican allies know it’s not a workable plan. Which is why they’ll compromise, using more efficient methods of removing these people as well as their political enemies.
Ovens are cheap.
As for the cost, we have no problem throwing money at humiliating and dehumanizing people. It’s fucking outrageous. There’s plenty of examples where we pay lots more money to hurt people instead of help them.
We will find a way to pay for it.
And fuck my neighbors (cops who support Trump) when they come for my neighbors (I don’t ask questions, but they aren’t white and they’re a thousand times better people than the cop family).
They absolutely have the capacity to do this. Some states would resist, and that would limit their success. Many states, however, would not resist and would happily aid the effort.
Explain how then?
You know how Trump likes to project? First the whole birth certificate thing, and now this. I’m becoming increasingly convinced he is an illegal immigrant.
He is probably projecting his hatred for his immigrant wives.
The guy’s talking about concentration clamps for migrants as part of his final solution.
Be scared. Vote.
Oh look, Trump wants to pull a Sunak now. He sure loves plagiarizing the worst ideas from the worst modern politicians in the worst way possible.
You’ll have to grow and harvest your own food…
He said it’s ok. He only eats Mac Donald’s and he specifically requests his order with no tomatoes, onions and lettuce to reduce the size as to make it fit in his “perfectly normal, not small” hands.
As for the beef, he knows Jared can bring not just peace to the Middle East, but cows to the plebs as well. They are the secret recipe for trump steaks, which the world just wasn’t ready for back then.
US birth rate has been below replacement rate for a decade and a half. Immigration is the ONLY thing keeping the machine going.
Of course the xenophobic dope would have xenophobic dopey ideas.
I’m actually less worried about it now that he’s said he has a plan to do it. I haven’t read his plan, but I know the way he handles things (and the things his corporate overlords want) means the opposite will probably happen and it’ll somehow be worse.
