Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

He doesn’t care either way. All he’s really doing is rallying a community of people in his support who hate brown people.
As long as there is a group of people willing to support him he will bend in any direction to get them. It turns out getting support from racists is the easiest group to manipulate.
He’s using this for momentum. That’s how he got elected.
...That doesn't mean he's not going to deport as many as he can. He can deport all illegal immigrants and there will still be plenty of POC to scapegoat. Then it's on the next thing: Segregation. He likely won't live long enough to do it, but the GOP will go for it.
And I think he does care (not that I support what he cares about), he is racist through and through.
Maybe he will maybe he won’t.
It’s already illegal to be an illegal immigrant. You already get deported if you get caught.
I can’t possibly see what else he can do about it other than kick in random doors. I don’t see that happening.
What I'm reading is they don't automatically deport you if you're an illegal immigrant, as of now. Maybe hearings, DACA, all the jazz about "he has dependent family here". They have addresses of DACA people, they know where a lot of illegal immigrants live.
Honestly sounds like fear mongering to me. They can’t pull this shit off even if they wanted to
Geezus. He's going to do what he said he's going to do. What is going on with Lemmy in this thread.
He can try. It won’t work. It’s just basic logic.
Do you believe everything that comes out of that idiots mouth?
How’d that wall turn out?
He's going to deport pretty much as many as he can. The only limiting factor is logistics and courts (blocking him from using the military, etc). You're just hoping the system blocks him, like the Dems did to the wall. Right now he has all 3 houses. You really need to stop sticking your head in the sand.
Haha what a joke.
Case in point.
