Trump Immigration Crack Down is a Day One Assignment

Since Joe Biden has been in office, there have probably been somewhere between eight and 10 million migrants permitted to enter this country, and that is a very conservative estimate.

Included in that number are migrants who had criminal records and who never should have been permitted to enter, but Mayorkas tossed the book on our immigration laws and allowed them in simply because he did not deem them to be a danger to the American people.

They are all being put on notice because immigration will be a Day One task for the new administration.

Let’s Get Rolling

Trump is expected to be very aggressive with his immigration plan as soon as he takes office.

In fact, his team is already working up a plan for mass deportations.

This will involve Tom Homan, who will be Trump’s border czar, and Governor Kristi Noem, who will be taking over for Secretary Mayorkas to head the Homeland Security department.

Trump is expected to end the special parole that was granted to migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela by Joe Biden.

They will likely look to identify all migrants with a criminal history to target them for roundup and deportation.

Much of this will be challenged, but I believe the Supreme Court will find that Trump is very much within his powers to do this, especially when you consider how Mayorkas has just blatantly disregarded our existing immigration laws.

I am going tell everyone right now, however, that this is going to take time.

In recent history, the largest number of deportations that took place in a single year was around 430,000 people in 2013 during the Obama administration.

Even if they double that amount, we are looking at four years of constant deportations that will realistically be about two to three million people.

If Trump is able to do more than that, I would be highly surprised, but I won’t count him out on that front.

This, however, is why Trump needs to have a successful term because this project will take at least one more administration to complete while at the same time locking down our borders to minimize illegal crossings.
