So are these individuals including children being shipped to the camps in Texas? Are they going to concentrate hard once they wait there?
Also, how long does it take to legally deport someone, and where do these individuals get deported too? Are the receiving countries setup to receive a influx of people? Will half of a family be accidentally deported over seas and the other half somewhere else? Do the American kids that were born in the USA need to choose if they want to be deported, or could they just sponsor their patents? So many question.
John Oliver did a great (and by great I mean horrifying) segment on the logistics of mass deportations. There's no way to sugarcoat it, this will be a shit show that destroys lives.
“Legally”. Remember what he can do while in the process of “official acts”.
More or less. Countries already have a set quouta of the maximum number of deported immigrants they'll receive. This causes people from certain countries (like Brazil, which has a low quota) to be "safer' from deportation than, say, Mexicans. That's at least under current laws, but Trump plans to bypass some of the deportation processes, so who knows.
Overseas? Fuck no, that's too expensive. Send everyone to Mexico cuz fuck it, right?
The only other cheap option is, what, ferries? Which would probably turn into death boats? Plane tickets are a no go.
Trump is probably too stupid to understand how different cultures/customs are between non-whites.
"They're brown, so they're mexican, right? I hate mexicans, I hate brown, so... all go to mexico!"
