Along with his plans to create migrant detention camps and resume the construction of a border wall along the southern border, former President Donald Trump pledged to mobilize military forces to get millions of illegal aliens out of the country if reelected.
In an exclusive interview with Time magazine’s Eric Cortallessa, the Republican presumptive nominee shared his plans for resolving migrant woes that have soared in historic numbers since Biden came into power.
Trump also noted that he will reimplement policies such as “Remain in Mexico” and Title 42.
“Because we have no choice. I don’t believe this is sustainable for a country, what’s happening to us, with probably 15 million and maybe as many as 20 million by the time Biden’s out. Twenty million people, many of them from jails, many of them from prisons, many of them from mental institutions,” the former president remarked.
He furthered, “We will be using local law enforcement. And we will absolutely start with the criminals that are coming in. And they’re coming in in numbers that we’ve never seen before.”
When asked if his plans include using the military, Trump responded that when he says military, he refers to the National Guard.
“I’ve used the National Guard in Minneapolis. And if I didn’t use it, I don’t think you’d have Minneapolis standing right now, because it was really bad. But I think in terms of the National Guard. But if I thought things were getting out of control, I would have no problem using the military, per se. We have to have safety in our country. We have to have law and order in our country. And whichever gets us there, [but] I think the National Guard will do the job,” Trump clarified.
During his term, Trump required asylum seekers to wait for court dates in Mexico.
His advisers added that the amount of fentanyl smuggled into the US and child trafficking can be used as justification to impose emergency measures.
The interview elaborated that the construction of the wall would likely come from the military budget and would be implemented even without congressional approval.
The former president confidently explained his stance to Cortallesa and said the moves were not “bold” actions.
He remarked, “I think they’re actions that are common sense. But I really believe, Eric, that they’re actions that—it’s incredible that they’ve allowed so many people to come into our country, especially considering they were unchecked and unvetted, most of them. They’re just pouring in. They’re pouring in at levels that no country has ever seen before. It’s an invasion of our country.”
