Donald Trump said that ICE would begin rounding up and deporting unwelcome invaders unless Democrats and Republicans came to an agreement on immigration after two weeks. That time has passed and now Trump is saying that the deportations will happen “fairly soon.”
President Donald Trump said on Friday mass deportation roundups would begin “fairly soon” as U.S. migrant advocates vowed their communities would be “ready” when immigration officers come.
Trump, who has made a hardline immigration stance a key issue of his presidency and 2020 re-election bid, postponed the operation last month after the date was leaked, but on Monday he said it would take place after July 4.
“They’ll be starting fairly soon, but I don’t call them raids, we’re removing people, all of these people who have come in over the years illegally,” he told reporters at the White House on Friday.
The fact that he delayed these deportations was ridiculous to begin with. He only did it because Nancy Pelosi asked him too after she claimed that they’d try to work on an immigration deal. As I suspected, the bitch hasn’t done shit and there has been no progress on any sort of deal.
This was just a delay tactic from Pelosi. There is now no reason why these deportations can’t start in mass. In fact, I have no idea why Trump made some grand announcement about it. He could have just issued the order and after the raids entered the news cycle made a statement on it.
Whatever the case, these deportations need to start happening and they need to start happening now. No more excuses.
immigrants immediately.
