Mass deportations, detention camps, troops on the street: Trump spells out migrant plan

Trump White House 2.0 would mean a vast, legally dubious roundup of up to 11 million people and pit state against state

Donald Trump is planning to unleash the biggest mass deportation of undocumented migrants in US history should he win re-election in November, involving legally questionable deployments of military and police units and the creation of vast detention camps along the southern border.

Trump has laid out his vision for a record-setting deportation operation" in a series of rally speeches, newspaper articles and social media posts. He intends to move swiftly after inauguration day next January to stage mass roundups of immigrants across the country, conducting raids inside big cities where he would face certain Democratic opposition.
