Countless people on social media certainly agree with the headline.
Kamala Harris recently tried to blast Donald Trump over his calls for mass deportation, which was in turn turned into a Trump campaign as.
“They have pledged to carry out the largest deportation, a mass deportation, in American history. Imagine what that would look like and what that would be,” Harris said while fearmongering to the Congressional Hispanic Caucus.
“How’s that going to happen? Massive raids, massive detention camps? What are they talking about?”
Those comments quickly made their way into a pro-Trump advertisement.
It’s unclear whether or not it’s an official Trump ad or a fan made video, but it’s hilarious regardless.
To answer Harris’ questions that she doesn’t want the answer to; contrary to what Democrats say, mass deportation wouldn’t be “rounding up” millions of people and deporting them - it would largely only require changing the structure of incentives that illegals face.
Consider the fact that it was estimated that there were 11 million illegals living in the U.S. when Biden took office (it’s probably higher, obviously). That’s roughly the number of illegals that entered the U.S. under the Biden administration alone. In other words, they did in three and a half years what took sixty years previously.
Had Harris literally done nothing on the border there probably would’ve been *fewer* consequences, when you consider the fact that countless blue cities and states are offering illegals more social services than U.S. citizens.
During the “Ellis Island” era of immigration there was no welfare state - and the majority of people who came to this country self-deported. Mass deportation is as simple as cutting off illegals from social services intended for U.S. citizens, and making the penalties for hiring illegals so high nobody would dare.
