Summary

Vivek Ramaswamy outlined a “pragmatic” immigration policy, proposing to deport undocumented immigrants who have committed crimes, aiming for what he claims would be the “largest mass deportation in history.”

He advocates cutting all federal aid for undocumented immigrants, including funding for sanctuary cities, hoping this will lead to “millions of self-deportations.”

While he didn’t rule out deporting Dreamers, Ramaswamy emphasized adherence to the law as the child of legal immigrants.

    When a second generation immigrant calls for deportation of immigrants, you have to wonder how much they hate their parents.

      We all know Trump supporters are gonna be SWATing anyone darker than a caramel frappucino so there’s a decent chance. Those nasty texts floating around in the news are just the tip of one really big ass iceberg

    Yay, we’re back to the “self-deportation” dream. Can’t wait for a thing of strawberries to cost $50 b/c there’s nobody to pick them.

      ^ That’s me whenever I see something from any of these winger jackholes: donvict, his family, Gym Jordan, Gaetz, Bobo, Empty G, Roger Stone, Stephen Miller, Bannon, Flynn, and on and on. So many weird assholes in that cult that calls itself a political party.

    Vivek will enthusiastically support literally anything. Him supporting anything shitty shouldn’t be newsworthy.

      I dunno. Pretty sure trump will deport him, and Vivek will support it. And that should be rather well reported. Mostly for the comedic irony,

    Imagine thinking you could persuade Mister Unconditional Muslim Flight Ban to only deport the criminals when all of his supporters are screaming “they’re already criminals! iLlEgAl! Duh!”

    proposing to deport undocumented immigrants who have committed crimes

    Forgetting to mention that the American Fascist Party considers BEING an undocumented immigrant a crime, meaning that it’s a proposal to deport ALL undocumented immigrants, which would necessitate first rounding them up and putting them in concentration camps.

    Ramasmarmy better read the “first they came for” poem…
