The promise of a deportation policy for illegal migrants by Donald Trump in the United States is serious. The new president-elect, who will assume power on January 20, 2025, assured that he will not do business with countries that refuse to receive their citizens after being deported.

“I want them out (the illegal migrants), countries have to take them back, and if they don't take them back, we won't do business with those countries, and we will tariff those countries very substantially,” Trump said in an interview with Time magazine, as reported by New York Post.

Your conversation with Time was like being chosen by this publication as the 'Person of the Year', an appointment for which they were also considering personalities such as Princess Kate Middleton.
Donald Trump indicated that the idea is to send migrants back to their countries of origin. If they do not accept them, "when they send products, they will face substantial tariffs, which will make it difficult for them to do business with us."
He reaffirmed that border security will be a priority for him, just as he said when he nominated Tom Homan to be in charge of the borders. Homan promised to carry out the largest deportation in the history of the United States.
It is worth remembering that the 78-year-old president had already threatened Mexico and Canada with imposing a 25% import tariff for allowing millions of illegal migrants to enter the United States, and for letting the borders become routes for fentanyl and drug trafficking in general.
Donald Trump says he will do "whatever it takes" to remove illegal immigrants.
Donald Trump emphasized that he will do whatever is necessary to remove them, although he added that he hopes not to build too many new camps. In Texas, officials made up to 1,400 acres of land available for the camps, where they expect to detain the illegal immigrants while they are deported, according to The Post.
“Whatever it takes to get them out. I don’t care. Honestly, whatever it takes to get them out. Once again, I will absolutely do it within the limits of the law. If you need new camps, well, but I hope you won’t need too many because I want to get them out, and I don’t want them sitting in the camp for the next 20 years,” he stated.
