Trump proposes mass deportation plan that could impact U.S. citizens
Former President Donald Trump has proposed a mass deportation plan targeting up to 20 million noncitizens in the U.S. This plan includes deploying the military and local police to round up individuals, potentially affecting U.S. citizens and legal residents. Trump's approach aims to remove undocumented immigrants, particularly those associated with gangs. However, it risks displacing many who have lived in the U.S. for years, including mixed-status families where some members are citizens. The plan raises concerns about the accuracy of databases used to identify legal status, which have previously led to wrongful detentions of U.S. citizens. Critics warn that such a large-scale operation could result in significant community disruption and legal challenges.
