I really wish he could speak in independent clauses.
Count me in ! The Force is going to need breakfast and lunch cooks at their forward bases. I can cook either. Hopefully the minimum wage will be back down to $6 so I won’t be a burden on the economy. On to Tierra del Fuego!
Will trump name the force The GESTAPO or The Trump SS?
"You’re going to have a deportation force, and you’re going to do it humanely,"
You can try that in one hand, Donald — And crap in the other —
See which gets filled up first —
“… “Operation Wetback” in the 1950s, a model Trump has cited before. The former president deported hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants and dropped them off in remote areas of Mexico without the means to travel home.”
Yes. Totally humane to use the word “Wetback” in your plan for Mexican deportation… if your plan is to deport wet Mexican bears to remote areas where they can’t get into folks’ garbage and totally make a mess of things.
Shocking but then the cowed press, No-Doz Carson presser I’m watching now is just as…zzzzz!
Would they be armed? Would they carry assault rifles? I’m sure we all remember this photo when we “humanely” deported Elián González.
No exit from this rabbit hole.
The hatter gets madder.

And whom would we deport? My grandparents drove from Canada to Massachusetts in the 1920s and just got an apt and started working. No papers. Do I have to go? Do I have to change my name to Anchor_Dave?
Operation Taco Bender. And they could be shot out of cannons to save on the cost of dropping them off in remote areas of Mexico. It shouldn’t be a problem for them to stick the landing with those melon-sized calves.
Will we take their American gold fillings out first?
When is the media going to hold Trump’s feet to the fire about everything that, by law would be necessary to do what he proposes to do. Every person to be “rounded up” for deportation is legally entitled to a formal Notice to Appear before an Immigration Judge, to a hearing at which the individual can appeal for relief from deportation, etc. The affected individuals are entitled to legal representation. The whole process takes time and money. The conservative American Action Forum estimates that deporting the estimated 11.2 million undocumented immigrants would cost $400 billion to $600 billion and would take 20 years. Further, they estimate it would result in a loss of $1.6 trillion to U.S. GDP.

You…you…CANADIAN!
What’s that? I’m Cuban. Oh shit…
To point out just how HUUUGE this disportation would be, deporting the 11 million illegal immigrants the Dept of Homeland Security estimates we have at monthly rate of as many people live in Oklahoma City, it would take twenty four months and twenty four Oklahoma City equivalents. If you wanted to do it at half this speed, it would take fortyeight months and fortyeight Minneapolis equivalents. Or, going faster, it would take eleven months and eleven Dallas equivalents.
In short, this is a rediculous idea put forward by a rediculous candidate.
And how are you going to pay for this “humane force”?
More tax cuts?
Pardon me for pointing out - but wasn’t “gassing” considered a “humane” way of “managing” Jews?
“Look, we have to do what we have to do…other people have done it.”
Indeed they have:
- Reinhard Heydrich.
- Joseph Stalin.
- Mao Tse-Tung.
- Pol Pot.
- Slobodan Milošević.
Trump represents a long tradition of “humane” deportation advocates.
