Good thing journalists are only asking the policy questions after the election. Not that it would've mattered for the result, but still.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

who wants to bet that there is, in fact, a price tag for his mass deportation plan?
Yesterday’s headline was about Latino voters choosing Trump for economic reasons.
No price tag.
The ones that can vote are all here legally. Of course some will be caught up in the dragnet anyway, but nobody told them that in so many words. They think it'll only affect others.
He didn’t mean them though, just the other minorities. He knows who voted for him……..
Yes, that sounds bad. But how else should we decide who to deport? How could we decide who is a "bad immigrant"? Maybe they get citizen status and then we realized they are also a criminal? Should they then also be deported? A US citizen? Maybe yes!
I only see two solutions:
- Directly deport every foreigner, no matter if anyone thinks they are good or bad
- Deport everyone who ever got sentenced because of anything. Independent of their citizen status. This might include a lot of people that are thought of as American, but almost nobody is originally from here. And this way we clearly get rid of all the bad people.
(/s, just to be sure)
Whaaaaatttt? How could that happen???!!!!
Trump in 2 months: "Mass deportation is too expensive, so we need a final solution"
“Trains? Can’t we just use garbage trucks?”
It will eventually be paid for with crypto TrumpBux mined by mandatory Neuralink brain chips.
“And you know, I’m not somebody that says, 'No, you can’t come in.' We want people to come in."
“We just want them to leave again unless they think and act and look just like us.”
Another famine in Ireland, maybe?
Do you think maybe I could be “deported” to Canada in a way that Canada would have to accept me immediately?
I guess I’ll have to apply for legal immigration;)
