Trump may deport up to 3 million illegal immigrants

In a 60 Minutes interview Sunday, Trump stated he will deport 2 to 3 million illegal immigrants with a criminal record.

Donald Trump: And get the country straightened away.

Trump said he would tell his supporters, “don’t do it, that’s awful, because I’m going to bring this country together”. So I don’t think we’ll be very big on vacations, no, ” Trump said. “But before we make that determination, Lesley, it’s very important – we are going to secure our border”.

Young immigrants protected from deportation by Obama administration: More than 741,000 people have been approved for deferred action, which shields them from deportation and authorizes them to legally work. They know who these people are. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They live with these people.

Asked whether he really plans to build a wall along the U.S. -Mexico border – a proposal that served as a centerpiece of his campaign message – Trump replied, “Yes”.

Trump’s team, however, has suggested that the burden to ease tensions in the wake of the election rests on Democrats. The president-elect said, “I would tell them don’t be afraid”.

The billionaire real estate baron made security at the US-Mexico border a central plank of his insurgent presidential campaign, which resulted in last Tuesday’s election victory against his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.

“For certain areas, I would”.

As for the anti-Trump protests breaking out in America, the NY native said, “I think it’s terrible if that’s happening”.

WOOD: You know, there are still a number of criminal aliens who come into the country.

“We are not planning on erecting a deportation force”. And we’re not going to have, like, a two-day period and we’re not going to have a two-year period where there’s nothing. He is just focused on securing the borders.

He also said he will seek to arrest and deport illegal immigrants who are criminals, not all 11 or 12 million illegal immigrants in America.

After a period of disagreement between the U.S. Congress and the White House under President Barack Obama, Trump signaled that the two branches have already found some common ground on key issues.

During the interview, Trump once again said he will release his tax returns “at the appropriate time”. However, he will not commit to mandating insurance coverage of birth control for women at no cost.
