On January 20th next year, Trump’s first day in office, there will definitely be many big things waiting for him. But Trump is very clear: this must be done!
Yes?
Mass expulsion of illegal immigrants!
This is also a major promise he made during the election. A few days before the election, Trump publicly declared at a campaign rally, “On the day I take office, the immigration invasion will end and our country’s rejuvenation will begin
Anyway, we can see that after Trump’s election, the stock prices of American prisons have skyrocketed!
Why?
Arrest is required before expulsion, and imprisonment is necessary after arrest. The prison where they are detained naturally increases their profits. Don’t forget, if Trump keeps his promise, over 10 million illegal immigrants will be forced to leave the United States.
This is the big thing Trump will do on his first day in office, but will he succeed?
I don’t know.
But what I know is that it’s difficult, Trump really gnaws on hard bones, he may succeed, or he may succeed.
It’s simple, the United States is an immigrant country, and the issue of illegal immigration has an extremely complex background in the United States.
It must be noted that the former Americans were all illegal immigrants. Now, many of the illegal immigrants have family ties in the United States, and they are the bottom workers who maintain the operation of the American society
In addition, most illegal immigrants come from Latin America. The US intervention policy in Latin America, especially economic plunder, has left many Latin American countries struggling, forcing them to illegally enter the US and risk their own fate.
According to data from the US Department of Agriculture, the number of undocumented farm workers in the United States was 41% in 2018, which is the most recent year’s data available, with California having the highest number.
That is to say, nearly half of the workers on American farms may be illegal immigrants.
In addition, data from the US Immigration Commission shows that if illegal immigrants are deported on a large scale, the construction industry will lose one eighth of its workers.
From a national perspective, this policy will result in one million unfilled job vacancies.
Why is it difficult to fill?
It’s simple, these illegal immigrants are at the bottom of society, doing the most tiring, bitter, dangerous, and lowest paying jobs.
If they don’t do it, Americans won’t do it.
One direct consequence is a shortage of workers, an increase in wages, which subsequently affects the entire industry chain and leads to rising inflation in the United States.
It should also be noted that deportation cannot only target the lowest level of illegal immigrants. Once a social trend is formed, it will inevitably bring discrimination and pressure to technology talents, even foreign legal technology talents. Many people may choose to leave the United States, which will damage the country’s competitiveness.
According to data from Google, within 24 hours of Trump’s election, the search volume related to “moving to Canada” surged by 1270%, and similar search volumes for New Zealand and Australia also increased by nearly 2000% and 820% respectively.
A well-established immigration law firm in Canada claims that they now receive a new inquiry email every half hour.
In addition, the cost of expelling immigrants is high, including a large and well-trained law enforcement force, large-scale detention facilities, and sending planes to transport these people to countries willing to accept them.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, large-scale expulsion is unlikely to succeed.
But Trump is Trump. This is his major promise, he wants to fulfill it.
Shortly after his election, he said in an interview with NBC that he was not opposed to people entering the United States and that “if his government’s strategy of requiring businesses to operate within the United States succeeds, it will require personnel.
But he changed the subject, whether to expel or not, it’s not a matter of price.
In fact, we have no choice. When people kill and murder, when drug dealers destroy countries, now they have to return to those countries because they won’t stay here. There’s no price tag, “he said.
In Trump’s eyes, illegal immigrants are equivalent to criminals and drug dealers, and the United States does not need them. Although some studies in the United States show that their crime rate is not higher than that of Americans.
There’s no other way, they are sometimes scapegoats.
Finally, what do you think?
It’s still a rough three points.
Firstly, Trump wants to take it seriously.
Expelling illegal immigrants is a promise made by Trump in the election. Although there is a saying in the United States that the most unbelievable thing in the world is a man’s promise before marriage and a politician’s promise before an election.
But in terms of fulfilling certain promises, Trump is generally reliable.
This raises a question, how much cost can he bear? Can he overcome all obstacles to the end?
Moreover, according to Trump’s proposal, even some legal immigrants who have been recognized by the Biden administration should be deported.
You see, in the next four years, the United States will continue to engage in ongoing legal battles, street protests, and even violent actions.
Illegal immigrants come from all over the world, and we don’t have to avoid them. Some are Chinese.
Trump is also very clear that in a speech at a rally in Pennsylvania on April 13, he specifically mentioned that these Chinese people are “at the age of joining the army, and most of them are men. In my opinion, do they want to build a small army in our country?”
Where is this supposed to be.
But those who follow the line, you really need to be careful. America is not what you imagine.
Secondly, American society is increasingly divided.
Recently, there has been an interesting phenomenon in the United States.
On the one hand, Trump is recruiting troops and forming a government. But he was very clear that his two former top generals, former US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley and former US Secretary of State Pompeo, refused entry.
Why?
It’s simple. Both of them have backstabbed Trump. How can we tolerate Trump’s vengeful personality.
Another phenomenon. Democratic governors of California, Massachusetts, New York, and other states have begun to form the “Resistance Movement 2.0” to oppose Trump’s policies, including the large-scale deportation of illegal immigrants.
California Governor Newson publicly stated, “The freedom we cherish in California is under attack – and we will not stand idly by. California has faced this challenge before, and we know how to respond
Illinois Governor Pritzker has vowed that if federal funding is withheld for not cooperating with Trump’s large-scale deportation of illegal immigrants, Illinois will take legal action if necessary to retaliate. If you want to move my people, you have to go through my hurdle first
But is Trump someone who easily compromises? A major rift is unfolding in American society.
Third, turning over Shaobing (Baked cake in griddle) began.
I can’t help but think of the Trump 1.0 era. On his first day in office, he kicked Obama’s painstakingly crafted TPP into the garbage dump.
I remember after signing the document, Trump still showed the text to the camera and said, ‘What we just did was a great thing for American workers.’.
Is it really beneficial for American workers? Everyone has their own opinions.
But Trump became more and more aggressive afterwards. A few days later, he signed another “ban on Muslims”, which angered Saudi Arabia and other countries; He also built a barrier on the US Mexico border, threatening Mexico to pay for the construction cost. Later on, there were even more events. The United States kept withdrawing from the group and even withdrew from the Paris Agreement, which angered Europeans and made them curse: the United States did not care about the raging floods
But what happened later?
Many things are left unresolved. After Biden took office, many policies underwent a 180 degree turn, such as the United States joining the Paris Agreement
Trump 2.0, only 4 years. The next four years will definitely surprise the world; But in four years, it is estimated that the world will be shocked again.
Let’s tinker, since the United States has capital, let’s tinker freely.
