Illegal Immigrants Rushing to Cross the Border, Anticipating Trump's Win
A recent report suggests that illegal immigrants are currently rushing to cross the border. The reason? They believe that Donald Trump is likely to win the upcoming November elections and enforce stricter border security measures. This information comes directly from the immigrants themselves.
Immigrants Fear a Trump Win
According to a report by the New York Post, the migrants are apprehensive about the possibility of President Biden losing the re-election in November, leading to Donald Trump shutting down the border. Two brothers from Columbia, who managed to cross into the US and were later put on a flight to New Jersey, expressed their concerns. They believe that crossing the border will become more difficult after the elections and expressed their disapproval of Trump.
The current situation at the border is quite simple. It's wide open now, but if Trump wins, it's likely to be heavily secured. This is a situation that illegal migrants are keen to avoid, hence the rush to cross the border now.
Trump's Stance on Immigration
The belief among illegal immigrants is that if they manage to cross the border now, during Biden's tenure, they might be able to stay in the US. However, Trump has expressed different plans. He has stated that if he's elected in November, he intends to oversee the largest mass deportation effort in the country's history.
Trump has made it clear that the US cannot simply absorb around 20 million people and he might be forced to use the military to facilitate deportations. This opinion is not unique to Trump. A poll conducted by Axios/Harris last month revealed that a majority of Americans support the mass deportation of illegal immigrants, with 42 percent of Democrats also agreeing with this stance.
Public Opinion on Deportation
A new poll conducted by Reuters/Ispos found that 56 percent of registered voters believe that most or all illegal aliens in the US should be rounded up and deported. The poll also revealed that 36 percent of voters support the idea of incarcerating illegal aliens in detention camps until they are deported.
In an interview with TIME, Trump did not rule out the possibility of setting up such camps. However, he stated that there wouldn't be a significant need for them as the plan is to move the immigrants out and send them back to their countries of origin. He emphasized that the process would begin with the criminal element among the immigrants.
