TRUMP: DEPORT ALL OF AMERICA’S UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS Trump Said America Should Deport All 11 Million Undocumented Immigrants. “In an interview with CNN last week, he said America should deport all 11 million undocumented immigrants then let the ‘good ones’ back in, but without an opportunity for citizenship. ‘We got to move ’em out, we’re going to move ’em back in if they’re really good people,’ he told Dana Brush. Trump would not say how he would locate, round up and deport those 11 million, and wasn’t sure whether he would deport children, but said he would use efficient business methods.” [Chris Jennewein, Times of San Diego, 8/3/15] • Trump: “Regardless, When People Are Illegally In The Country, They Have To Go. Now, The Good Ones — There Are Plenty Of Good Ones — Will Work, So It’s Expedited, We Can Expedite It Where They Come Back In, But They Come Back Legally.” “Under the 14th Amendment, O’Reilly told Trump on ‘The O’Reilly Factor,’ mass deportations of so-called birthright citizens cannot happen. Trump disagreed, and said that ‘many lawyers are saying that’s not the way it is in terms of this.’ ‘What happens is, they’re in Mexico, they’re going to have a baby, they move over here for a couple of days, they have the baby,’ Trump said, telling O’Reilly that the lawyers said, ‘It’s not going to hold up in court, it’s going to have to be tested. ‘Regardless, when people are illegally in the country, they have to go. Now, the good ones — there are plenty of good ones — will work, so it’s expedited, we can expedite it where they come back in, but they come back legally,’ Trump clarified….Trump also said that he would not pursue an amendment to the Constitution to remedy the situation. ’It’s a long process, and I think it would take too long. I’d much rather find out whether or not anchor babies are citizens because a lot of people don’t think they are,’ he said. ‘We’re going to test it out. That’s going to happen, Bill.’” [Politico, 8/19/15] TRUMP MODELED HIS PLAN FOR THE MASS DEPORTATION OF UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS ON PRESIDENT EISENHOWER’S INHUMANE “OPERATION WETBACK” Donald Trump Modeled His Plan For “Humane” Mass Deportations On Eisenhower’s “Operation Wetback.” “These deportation procedures, detailed by historian Mae M. Ngai, were not anomalies. They were the essential framework of Operation Wetback — a concerted immigration law enforcement effort implemented by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1954 — and the deportation model that Donald Trump says he intends to follow. Trump made his affinity for Operation Wetback clear during an interview with CBS’s Scott Pelley over the weekend. Speaking on 60 Minutes Overtime, Pelley asked Trump to explain his plans for curbing illegal immigration. ‘We’re rounding them up in a very humane way, a very nice way,’ Trump said, as he has expressed before. ‘What does that roundup look like to you?’ Pelley pressed. ‘How does it work? Are you going to have cops going door-to-door?’ Trump interjected: ‘Did you like Eisenhower? Did you like Dwight Eisenhower as a president at all?’ ‘He did this,’ the presidential candidate said. ‘He did this in the 1950s with over a million people, and a lot of people don’t know that…and it worked.’ ” [Washington Post, 9/30/15] TRUMP CALLED FOR A “DEPORTATION FORCE” TO EXECUTE MASS DEPORTATIONS Washington Post: Donald Trump’s Immigration Plan Calls For A “Deportation Force,” To Execute An “Unprecedented, Expensive Roundup Of Undocumented Residents At Home.” “The Washington Post took a close look at the immigration proposals of the five top-polling GOP candidates: Trump, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, Rubio, Cruz and former Florida governor Jeb Bush. … Trump’s plan calls for a wall on the border, and a Confidential Page 139
