- Donald Trump has reaffirmed his plans to carry out mass deportations and end birthright citizenship in the United States.
- Trump stated that he would try to end the constitutionally protected right to US citizenship for anyone born in the country.
- He also expressed his willingness to work with Democrats on the issue of “dreamers” – people who have grown up in the US after entering the country illegally as young children.
Donald Trump has doubled down on his hard-line campaign pledges, including mass deportations and ending birthright citizenship. In a recent television interview, Trump reiterated his plan to deport undocumented immigrants, stating that it’s a “very tough thing to do” ¹. He also expressed his desire to end birthright citizenship, calling it “ridiculous” and stating that the US is the only country that grants citizenship to anyone born within its borders.
Trump’s plan for mass deportations has been met with criticism, with many economists warning that it could have severe economic consequences. Additionally, his proposal to end birthright citizenship has raised concerns about its constitutionality and potential impact on families.
In a surprising move, Trump offered a small olive branch to advocates for allowing some undocumented migrants to stay in the US. He stated that he would work with Democrats on the issue of “dreamers” – people who have grown up in the US after entering the country illegally as young children.
