Looking past the total stupidity and racist pandering, I really would like to know the nitty gritty mechanics of how Trump thinks his plan would work. How would the government be determining, on an individual basis, who is “illegal”? Obviously, undocumented people are not going to voluntarily give themselves up when they know they are going to be deported. Trump and others make it seem like we know who these people are already, we don’t. We’d have to find out and that’s not exactly easy. The only way I can think to find out is to undertake an aggressive bizarro census-like operation to determine if people have their “papers.” Essentially this special government force knocking on doors demanding papers, or even performing sweeps of neighborhoods. God help these folks if they have misplaced their documents, don’t speak English, or even worse, dare to talk back to one of the officers.

Will this special government force be in every neighborhood? Will they be raiding Trump Tower for potential “illegal” foreign millionaires in penthouses? Yea, that’s what I thought.

The thought of this is beyond disturbing and I hope I am not being naive when I tell myself someone like Trump could never win a presidential election.
