There is no mass-deportation campaign going on right now. Deportation is a process. This is kidnapping and human trafficking.

So then Elon goes "Kill the Bill!" and Trump goes "Elon has TDS!" so Elon goes "I'm the reason Trump won!" so Trump goes "we waste billions on Elon!" so Elon goes "Epstein!" and a corpulent flunkie goes "Deport Elon!" and Elon goes "Impeach!" And THAT'S why women are too emotional to be President.

People in any country with leaders willing to negotiate with Trump on tariffs should elect new leaders. You can’t make a deal with a grifter who’s never honoured a single deal he’s ever made. Also while half of American voters are happy to give this guy what he wants, no one else should.
