    I’m pretty sure there was a damaging mass deportation during the Great Depression that deported mostly american citizens to Mexico.

          Maybe that’s his plan. He doesn’t like the prenup and wants to marry that ghoul Loomer so he’s doing this to get her deported and the marriage annulled. Then he’ll use government money to put on a huge wedding and try to have a baby immediately. Everyone knows if you’re president when you have a kid the government is on the hook for support. Unlimited money!!!

          It’s 12-D chess!!!1!

      Correct, in the 1930s, I saw someone post about it recently. I don’t know the motivation then, but the tactic will be used this time to target any group. Maybe even used for “other activities” when deportation becomes logistically difficult.

      I feel like to the people doing the deporting this time, they wouldn’t care. The point is to be damaging.
