Keep spewing that rhetoric, Banks. You know who else will be leaving the country? A lot of educated folks who do not want to be part of your BS. Look at the brain-drain which happened to Russia 2 yrs ago or South Africa in the early 2000s. Look at them now. 3rd world Trump will have his 3rd world sh***ole right on his doorstep every morning.

Undocumented workers paid 96 billion dollars into Social Security and Medicare through the INT. They are not eligible to collect from those programs but there work help sustains them. They do work Americans do not want to do. Hotels hire them, farmers hire them, meat packing plants hire them, construction companies hire them. Removing them will be a disaster. Banks says the American people have spoken for it, I didn't. Only 51 percent of uneducated voters for Trump wanted it. We Democrats understand they are needed here. Republicans in the red state on Welfare won't go to work and do the jobs immigrants do. What will happen is Trump will cut the taxes for the rich, raise our taxes and do away with Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and other needed social programs like CHIP, Meals on Wheels, School lunch programs etc... America will suffer and end up losing our allies and pulled out of the NATO agreement, which Russia wants us to do. Trump is friends with our enemies. He is a traitor to America and proved it when he stole top secret documents and refused to return them and showed them to people who had no clearance to do so. Dumb Americans voted him in after every warning from generals and all his staff to his own VP said he is not fit to sit in the oval office. Now all of America and our Allies will pay the price.

It’ll never happen. Republicans loveee cheap non documented workers despite their phony outrage. You watch how many loopholes they’ll put in these bills to let their landscapers,painters,crop pickers,etc,etc get ‘exceptions’. E-Verify would solve the problem almost 100% percent but republicans keep pulling it out of legislation at last minute because it would prevent the real criminals ( multi billionaires) from making insane profits. Just try raiding one of trump’s golf courses and see how many you’ll find

This woman doesn’t realize that Trump would have her deported just because she speaks Spanish. That’s what happened in 2016.

She thinks because she stood in line for a few hours and got her Green card legally that she's able to stay here and that the other family members just ran across the border but some people are running away from the cartel or gangs and don't have the time or the money to wait for years for their paperwork to get processed! Let's see what happens to her when she takes all that Trump stuff off and start speaking Spanish

I actually agree that this needs to to happen. But if you put on your tin-foil hat, you could imagine that the infrastucture and procedures to make this happen could easily be used on political enemies if Herr Trump decides to go full on dictator and bring America into martial law.

I think we should also be bracing for a stream of American Democrats and liberals moving north. Trump 2.0 isn't the same as 1.0. That time it was I'm leaving because. . . This time its I'm leaving because I might not be welcome here anymore. Although highly unlikely because of our close proximity one could even argue that an American brain drain might also happen as scientists move north to continue their research free of government interference. Remember Einstein read the room in the 1930s and left Germany for America. This could now happen to America as scientists read the room and walk away with their research saying let those Christian Nationalist deal with nuclear fission with just God's hands.

So for those with partners who are undocumented, you can expect one day that partner simply won't return home. Prepare for the worst. It is now a reality. Your partner leaves the house, goes to work at a factory or whatever job and the location gets raided. Even if that person is latino and 'legal', it will take time to sort out the confusion. That person may not be carrying documents showing permanent residency. It won't matter. Once you're on a truck, headed to some undisclosed location as an 'illegal', that's it. The drama doesn't stop there...Now the partner left behind may not have income. That 'illegal' may have been the only source of income in the household. How are families supposed to feed and clothe themselves without support? But hey, this is the new (racist/sexist America). Glad the world got a chance to see this. These Trump voters ain't thinking but they will be the first ones to complain when things don't happen as they expect.

Trump described those had not happened events reported by media’s as fake news.

Just think folks once all of the illegals are out of our country we can start helping our homeless citizens. I know imagine that happening instead of catering to these illegals like they're royalty. I'm not just talking about Spanish I'm talking about Haitians-romanians,Chinese,africans,indians,EVERYONE who is here that's not supposed to be here. The executive order must give police a direct order from the commander and chief of the USA stating the police are ordered to ask for identification on all people's in this country on spot without cause. If you're a citizen you don't have anything to worry about if you're illegal you get deported within 24 hours after arrest NO NEED FOR A COURT CASE they will be put onto busses in every city loaded to the gills driven to the boarder and yes folks the NATIONAL GAURD might have to be used to show everyone how fkn serious we are about taking our country back. Enough is Enough democrats have proven they can't be trusted to run our country. What a nightmarish mess President Trump has to clean up.

We don't have enough low-income housing NOW, which is what refugees will be looking to rent. So what happens to Canadian-born natural citizens who already do not have enough of this kind of housing!?? We just cannot house EVERYbody, esp. when Trump is trying to mske our housing situation even worse than it already is!!! We just cannot do it!!!

It has been Officially CONFIRMED that : There Are More MORONS in America than Anywhere else in the World(74,226,755 to be Exact)!! These Are the People who Voted for Donald Accordion Trump(aka DON the Felon) and Who DON'T have the CAPACITY to THINK because They Elected a MAD DICTATOR, an OLD Man who Is in COGNITIVE DECLINE and who DOESN'T Listen to Anyone but Himself!! He DOESN'T have the RIGHT Temperament to be President!! NOW he Will have Access to the NUCLEAR CODE!! You will be In for a RUDE Awakening FOOLS!! It's CHILLING and TERRIFYING to Imagine What's gonna happen to America and the World, GOD FORBID!! ????????

Except we are ready for it. The government suspected this might happen and has been preparing for this exact scenario for months. The Sun has basically become the FoxNews of the North, spreading lies and conspiracy theories all for their beloved Dear Leader Little PP. So pay attention to what transpires in America under Trump and see if that chaos is what you really want to happen to Canada under the leadership of #trumpofthenorth.

There are about 800,000 police in the ENTIRE Country... If there are 16,000,000 illegals in the country, Each Police person would have to stop whatever they are doing and, on average, capture 20 illegals... Given that each of these captured people are entitled to plead their case before a judge, How many people will actually be deported before Trump exits??? How much will that cost??? and What happens to the USA while all the Police are engaged in doing Trump's wishes??? What they don't tell us about The Wall is that it's been breached more than 3,000 times and the climate in that area is already degrading the metal and concrete... Trump tried this before in his first term and could not get it done... What makes this Senator think it's going to work this time???

Trump's goal is to lock people out and keep the American's in he hates to get his bloody justice against them.\nHis Reich is coming to America and his violent minion supporters are salivating to get on board to have that green light turned on by Trump so they can have their violent bloody revenge. That's what's gonna happen.

Hes right. America voted. They want a mandate. They should do everything Trump wants. Then see what happens. Let them eat cake. What a bunch of fools America is. This is all because the Democrats failed the middle class and the poor so badly. I'm disgusted with all of it.

These people need to learn what denaturalization is. They'll see what will happen under Trump. As my father used to say, if you dont hear, you must feel.

They will not do nothing as it has happened before because they don't have even an idea of what kind of people. Trump will be worthless!!!

how will they identify the illegals? what happens to the businesses who lose employees? employment rates are high in the US. we have high employment in australia with many businesses who cannot find people to work in their businesses how will they identify the violent criminals? will they increase the police forces/army? will the costs of doing this outweigh the benefits? what are the benefits of getting rid of these people beyond some 'trumped up' idea they are somehow a threat??

She has no idea what’s really going to happen. Trump’s likely to ignore the existing laws and remove legal Hispanic immigrants or make it very very difficult for them to remain here. \n\nHe’s going to escalate existing ethnic bigotry, among a host of other divisive tactics, and she’ll see—along with other Latinos who voted for him, what’s she really voted for.\n\nThere are ways to handle this humanely, but think of how a certain German, his idol—per Ivana, his first wife—handled his power, and you’ll get some idea of how bad this can, and very likely will, really get. \n\nThe only possible saving grace may be his early signs of dementia, but he’s putting in place a group of likeminded friends, so not a good time to be different in the US.

Yes the immigrants must GO. They are illegal, some are criminal immigrants and they are killing Americans. The immigrants are draining our resources while Americans or having to do without. We have LAWS on immigration and they MUST be followed. NO exceptions! Our economy is terrible and people are struggling to buy groceries or get Meds. We have poor/middle class people suffering because of the Biden/Harris administration. There will be no assault - ya'll are comical. WE have people here at CNN that don't have clue but yet tell everybody what needs to be done. The bottom line is - Donald Trump is our president and he will make the decision and will handle in a professional manner the illegal immigration problem. Show President Trump some respect. I was raised to respect your elders - what has happened to that? Ya'll sit back watch - don't' worry about immigration and watch a pro git er done. God Bless the USA..........

He douche bags (CNN)! Did you happen to see Trumps pick for the new White House Chief of Staff? It’s a woman! Another one of your lies exposed.

What a fatuous policy proposal. If this immigration policy happens, every American will regret voting for Trump. The loss of revenue from thousands of these people will cost the United States economically and socially. It's unfathomable how those who voted for Trump don't understand economics!

So what happens to Elon having been an illegal immigrant before he became legal? Does he owe any money?\nAlso Mr. Banks doesn't seem to have thought much about the ramifications of his hatred. \n As well just how did he know that Trump knew he was going to win and that he had known for a long time he was going to win?

Russia helped Trump win with bomb threats and cheated by Elon giving money illegally to get votes. Why are the democrats letting this happen like they are a part of this. Seems all set up to happen and screw the American people.

Mr Banks, you did a great job on Dana Bash! Congratulations on your win ! Now go out there and make beautiful things happen w Trump and the American people!

I see many of you are still struggling to understand how Trump won. It’s many fold, but I can some it up rather concisely.\n\nYour entire mantra was “Vote for us so we can have our way and do what I want or democracy dies”\n\nWhich is so ironic that the thing you think will happen is what that statement represents. \n\nAdd on that, you attacked your political opponent for 8 years with lies, rhetoric (which included degrading remarks about the general populace) and a weak economy and weak foreign policy with a severe influx of illegal immigration. \n\nYou did this to yourselves

The United States will go bankrupt under Trump, lies Trump promised deportation before. never happened

When that mass deportation starts tax payers will be footing the bill and it's not going to go the way you think because it's going to affect a whole lot of people. Always remember Trump is not God and man is failing and God is unfailing and when you lift up a man more than God things is going to start happening because God said there will be no other God besides Me and I am a jealous God. Be bless

There aren't going to be more jobs coming up here because of the tariffs that Trump is going to do in fact several companies are already canceling their Christmas bonuses for people because they are going to be pre-buying things they need to try to get ahead of the tariffs they know that are coming this isn't going to make businesses want to hire pay more money increase benefits or anything like that I don't understand why people think this is going to be some kind of economic Boone I don't understand how everyone's forgotten what happens with tariffs the first time he was in office and now he wants to do even more

Itll be nice to have things for american citizens once again and nkt helping people who didnt earn nor deserve it and come to this country and rip off and free load and talk down on being here bc real immigrants who came here legally most agree this is indeed the best country in the world and opportunity and as a person of color making things happen instead of making excuses the dems downing of the american peopel got old of vote for me because we're the way is dead the in last 16 years 12 of those years have been ran by dems and only gotten worse as the year goes on im a pround California born and raised but left their bc of how bad its gotten happy where im at for sure god bless america and trump MAGA ?

It’s insane and predictable that so many people are uninformed about the consequences Trump’s return will have on America and the rest of the world. People sleepwalk with ignorance that nothing bad can happen to them or where they live. They’re going to get a reality check real fast. The rest of us who voted against fascism are preparing for the storm to come.

It’s very clear that Trump will tighten the rules in US, and close their borders. Then all scrap people, refugees, asylum seekers, homeless, illegal, terrorist people will land up in Canada because our immigration rules are so weak, border security is so weak, everything is weak , policies are worst. And above all we have worse politicians Traitor Trudeau and Terrorist Jagmeet. It’s all happening because of these two rascals ! Canada is becoming like a third world country

Trump only bluffs. Watch. Mass deportation ain't happen.

What could happen is Trump can blanket deputize verified Trump loyalists and patriots to voluntarily start rounding up those they believe to be immigrants at their discretion. That’s what they are hoping for

Anyone who is undocumented needs to be deported. But the Israeli lobby wants American citizens who criticize Israel to be stripped of their citizenship and deported as well. And Trump is not intelligent enough to understand how dangerous that is. If it does happen, all deported citizens need to be brought back as soon as trump's term ends and the israeli lobby investigated and put on trial.

You know what CNN, sit the next 2 years out. Let Trump do whatever, make no comment about it and whatever happens to the economy, our jobs, inflation, housing etc. So be it. Then after it all unfolds, you can do focus groups for all the people who voted for Trump saying how do feel about your vote NOW!!!

Trump Latinos say goodbye to your cousins, idiots voted for fascism. Kids in cages taught them nothing. MAGA is the worst thing to happen to America.

I knew an undocumented young woman who was living with her 1 yr old baby and her undocumented husband in NC. He started beating her up really badly so she called the cops. The cops arrested them both, even though he was the clear aggressor. They sent the baby off to cps and cps sent the child back to her extended family in Mexico. She spent 3 years in the county jail, never having access to proper medical care, fresh air & greenery or money for commissary or phone minutes. She was still in the early stages of learning English so she was unable to properly advocate for herself before she made bilingual friends and she couldn’t even read the English books in the county jail. Last I heard, she had finally been transported to a huge ICE detention facility in Georgia, but her case was still in limbo and she still had not seen her daughter 4 years later?\n\nShe was such a sweet young woman and what happened to her was so cruel, inhumane and totally undeserved. People who advocate for mass deportation are asking for millions of more stories just like hers, but with even more violence, since Trump would have to use storm troopers to do raids and papers checks so they can kidnap the 20 million people they want to deport.

This lady really think Trump is for her?! He would ship her but back to her country so fast, she wouldn’t know what happened or how! HE DONT CARE ABOUT HER! He thinks her whole existence in this country is the problem. Wake up lady!

Well at least she has a very smart family I wonder what’s going to happen when Trump loses again to lose her family over a convicted felon and sexual predator I guess her morals aren’t as important as her family

What crcks ms up about this is that this woman has no freaking idea that Trump convinced his Republicans to BLOCK Biden's border bill. So all of this shit that's happening is Trump's fault!!

It's a mute anyway. A recent study found that it would cost billions to effect trumps deportation plan. Currently American hope 40000 detainees and each deportation costs a ridiculous amount of money for the logistics alone.....it won't happen. All done of this before the impact of losing cheap labour, on businesses and the economy

She doesn't realize what could actually happen. Trump said if they're deported and they come back they will go to jail.

The current government increased immigration to have them beholding to them and so they get votes. At the same time they are leaving people that were born here, homeless and living in tent while the immigrants are taking up the shelter spaces and the Canadian tax payers footing the bill for them to live in motels and Ontario housings. I can tell you that if the homeless people in our community were voting, this would never of happened and they would not be living in our parks, in tents. As for me, I would give my address for them to have an address to vote from. All homed Canadians should be doing this to help these people have a voice in the country that they were born in. VOTING IN POWER FOR THESE PEOPLE! Make no doubt the the large portion of our homeless community have mental health issues and our society (GOVERNMENT) is not helping them. We are loosing generations of our Canadians. The Mental Health Act trumps The Rights of Freedom. Under The Mental Health Act if a person is a danger to their self or others, they are to be formed and get the help they need....SHAME ON THE GOVERNMENT

I'm pretty sure that the govt have done an immigration freeze before. Many applications were just halted and nothing happened for several months. This was a decade or so ago.\nBut yes if Stephen Harper was stupid enough to increase the immigration numbers then we know who to blame - the Conservatives!! \nSO DO NOT VOTE for the Conservatives. They just want money - Taxes. That is all. They will probably also increase the numbers again for more new taxes. \nRemember Conservatives = Trump. These people act like Trump. Greedy for Power and Money. This also means Doug Ford as well!! \nTrudeau should also have cut back these numbers ASAP during and after the Pandemic. Someone did not advise him very well at all. \nI do agree that Trudeau needs to do another freeze and not accept any new applications for at least 6 to 12 months, in order to process those applications already in the system.\nTrudeau then needs to severely cut the incoming numbers back to 200K like they used to be. And then keep it to that level!!

WHATS “REALLY” HAPPENING IS COMMIE TRUDEAU IS CUTTING BACK BECAUSE TRUMP IS DEPORTING EVERY ONE OF THESE “REPLACEMENT IMMIGRATION” ILLEGALS! …THIS COMMUNIST GOVERNMENT HAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED OUR CULTURE WITHOUT ANY REFERENDUM OR EVEN A MENTION OF THIS COMMUNISM BEFORE HAND!..LITTLE CASTRO IS NOTHING BUT ASS CANCER IN THE FLESH TO THIS COUNTRY!..WE LIVE IN A VERY SMALL TOWN & OUR LITTLE COMMUNITY LOOKS LIKE WERE IN SYRIA NOW!..ITS PATHETIC!..& LIKE ALL COMMUNISM THESE ILLEGALS COME WITH 50% OFF STICKERS FOR EMPLOYERS!..& LIKE THE GOOD LITTLE COMMUNISTS THEY ARE ,THEY ALL FALL IN LINE BECAUSE THEY’RE GETING THEIR POCKETS LINED BY THIS GROSSLY CORRUPT “CASTRO” GOVERNMENT!…COMMIE CASTRO EVEN RAISED TARIFFS ON CHINESE STEEL THAT SOUNDS GREAT UNTIL YOU DIG I TO IT !!..ITS ACTUALLY SO CORPORATIONS WHO’LL GET OTHER SUBSIDIES & WHO CAN AFFORD THE TARIFFS WILL HAVE MAJOR LAYOFFS & RE-HIRE 50% OFF IMMIGRANTS INSTEAD OF HOME GROWN CANADIANS!..BUT THE KICKER IS THAT THESE TARIFFS WILL COMPLETELY CRUSH THE SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS WHO EMPLOY 50% OF OUR CURRENT MIDDLE CLASS!…REMEMBER FOLKS THAT CASTRO JR IS A PUPPET OF THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM!!..THEY’RE SATANIC PEDO GLOBALISTS WHO HATE HUMANITY!…JUST GO LISTEN TO NOAH HIRARI FROM THE WEF SPEAK FOR A FEW MINS!…HE SPEAKS ABOUT HUMANS LIKE HE HAS NO IDEA WHAT ITS LIKE TO BE ONE!..& REALLY THINK ABOUT THAT!…THERES WAY MORE TO THIS THAN WHATS ON THE SURFACE!..?

What the fuck happened to trump supporters?

She doesn’t understand…. Trumps policy includes her …….she seems to think that because she’s for him he won’t deport her too……Look what has happened to everyone around him …. They are in jail paying fines, lives ruined
