That is probably the main question on immigrants minds these days.
But should it be on the minds of citizens?
It appears that Trump made a comment about deporting American citizens during one of his recent campaign stops…..
Donald Trump hosted back-to-back rallies in two states on Tuesday, using his time to attack President Joe Biden’s immigration policies and make some extreme promises in regard to his own agenda for the U.S.-Mexico border. That included claiming he’d deport U.S. citizens if undocumented migrants were found “invading” their homes.
“If your constitutional rights have been violated, we will defend you. If you have illegal aliens invading your home, we will deport you,” Trump said during an event in Wisconsin, his second stop of the night.
The claim, which is alarmingly similar to the policies of another far-right leader who punished civilians for hiding Jews in their homes, could be a direct attack on a controversial program announced last month by Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s administration. Whitmer’s new policy offers $500 subsidies for households that volunteered to shelter refugees.
Or, if the phrasing was just another verbal gaffe, it would add to a mountain of evidence that Trump is losing his grip. Over the last several months, Trump has claimed that there were “millions of people” arriving from “places unknown” speaking no language and that he would stop banks from “debanking” Americans; he has mixed up former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley and described his plan for America’s missile defense system by going, “Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.… Boom. OK. Missile launch. Woosh. Boom.”

I think Trump had a brain fart but knowing his attitude and hard core BS I would put nothing past this ‘person’ if he were to be elected president.
Would you?

Trump is becoming more delusional by the day. But if he gets elected, it will only get worse. More hysterical, more entitled, more empowered. I wonder how far the average American will tolerate his antics before the bubble bursts? Or would they be too scared to resist?
Best wishes,Pete.
Good questions Pete….I am not sure that the average Joe would resist….I have little faith in them at all. chuq
