Donald Trump continued on Tuesday to float his idea, which some legal experts say is unconstitutional, to deport U.S. citizens who commit crimes.

Speaking to the press during a tour of a migrant detention center in the Florida Everglades, the president repeated claims that there are many immigrants who are now citizens and have been committing serious crimes.

"They're not new to our country. They're old to our country. Many of them were born in our country. I think we ought to get them the hell out of here, too, if you want to know the truth," he said. "So maybe that will be the next job."

Somebody please correct me if I'm mistaken, but isn't Trump a convicted felon who has not yet been sentenced?

[-] [email protected] 24 points 3 days ago

A mere formality. He can just go ask the Supreme Court to declare that he’s not a felon or something. Does it make any sense? No, but does any of it?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

They just need to vote quickly on what would in the best interest of the country.

Vote A: The Supreme Court needs a private jet

Vote B: The Supreme Court needs a luxury yacht


As soon as that vote is made, they can start negotiations with the Trump administration on a plea deal.

He was sentenced to President. America is not a serious country.

[-] [email protected] 58 points 3 days ago

He was sentenced. The sentence was effectively a judicial shrug.

How about you start with the criminals who have 34 felony convictions?

[-] [email protected] 29 points 3 days ago

They're trying to make being trans a felony called "gender fraud". Just throwing that out there.

[-] [email protected] 17 points 3 days ago

And it'll expand to those with "Trump derangement syndrome".

The US is fucked.

[-] [email protected] 33 points 3 days ago

Many of them were born in our country. So where do they go? Labor death camps.

[-] [email protected] 34 points 3 days ago

Or they come from countries which don't recognize dual citizenship, so if they have US citizenship, they no longer have it in their original country.

Making somebody stateless is a crime by UN law.

[-] [email protected] 17 points 3 days ago

Wonderful a new crime for the list!

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Yep. I was born in PRC. When I became a US citizenship, I automatically lost PRC Citizenship. Not that I would enjoy living there in any case, don't know much Mandarin, and hate the CCP. The internet there will suck. I'm gonna stuggle trying to bypass the firewalls to get western media that I'm so acustomed to. Hukous System is gonna be ass, since I have a Rural Hukou.

But that doesn't matter. Probably ending up in cecot anyways.

Australia! Just like old times.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

Wait where do I get my free ticket to a better country?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Yeah nah, last I checked we weren't a US colony .. or anyone's for that matter, so that shits not gonna float. That said, our last group of Right Wing arseholes negotiated their own island concentration camp he'll holes for refugees .. use those.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Fine. But this time we use gene drive on Emus and Huntsman's instead of guns.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 3 days ago

This is essentially what the royals did back in trinity days in Ireland

That’s how we got Australia.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 3 days ago

It’s not an “idea” it’s the plan.

[-] [email protected] 17 points 3 days ago

Genuinely one of the only things keeping me going is that the when the cultural backlash happens and mark my words it will happen, it's gonna be so massive and sweeping that these fucking ghouls and anyone who supports them will be in a living hell. I'm talking post Jan 6th x10 levels of hate.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 3 days ago

As a US citizen who is losing hope, I'd love to hear any evidence that a cultural backlash will happen. I don't see it, anywhere. Even people who are as against this administration as me have simply given up and left the country already or making plans to leave the country. There are no warriors.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

Hell, you would think that after the shitshow that Reagan had caused during his presidency, they'd be a lot more furore against his legacy right about now. Forty years on, this "cultural backlash" didn't happen. People don't shun and hate him and his supporters nearly as much as they ought to. It's a complete and utter joke.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago

I'm hoping this is extinction behavior from the right.

It's unlikely.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

It will not happen. Americans have given up already.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

Jan 6th x10 levels of hate

So that’d be … what, January 60th is February 29th or march 1st depending on year.

What’s notable about those days?

[-] [email protected] 21 points 3 days ago

He also thinks it's a crime to report anything negative about him.

[-] [email protected] 17 points 3 days ago

Amerika Uber Alles!

[-] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

Britain had the same idea and that's how we got Australia. Which indigenous peoples does Trump intend to doom with this idea? Israel is already getting the US's pedophiles.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Isnt he guilty of a bit north of 3 and a half dozen felonies?

[-] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

People say I got nothing to worry about, but I guess they'll realize when shit hits the fan. Some of us know just from the smell of the room. If only they weren't so blind and ignorant.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Hmm just got to figure out a place to put them....
Does France still own Madagascar?

Or is there some country we are going to war with we can demand them to surrender land for peace, and then plan to export the people to?
I'm actually betting Gaza as slave labor to build his new city he wants with Bibi, but he wants them to win first.

man every news headline regarding this idiot in 2025 seems like a Black Mirror episode

Thank goodness it is only an idea.

They’re the worst of the worst criminals. Trans and gay, right? Let’s just pardon the child rapist, J6ers, and high-traffic drug dealers.
