Trump details mass deportation plan for 2024 campaign amid past challenges

ctvnews.ca

Donald Trump is outlining a more detailed plan for mass deportations in his current presidential campaign. He aims to use wartime powers, military support, and cooperation from state governors to deport millions of undocumented immigrants. During his first term, Trump deported fewer than 350,000 people annually, far below his goal. His campaign now suggests a larger operation, but legal and logistical challenges remain, including the need for cooperation from local authorities and funding for detention facilities. Trump plans to invoke the Alien Enemies Act to justify deportations and may rely on the National Guard for enforcement. However, experts warn that implementing such a plan could be extremely difficult and face significant resistance from military leaders and local governments.
