The first few days of Donald Trump’s second administration have been busier than a Hillary Clinton aide on emergency document-shredding duty. But at the center of his breathtaking flurry of executive action — including the live-streamed murder of DEI, backing out of the Paris climate accord, and renaming the Gulf of Mexico the “Gulf of America” — there’s the issue that will make-or-break his presidency: illegal immigration.
And so far, Trump is knocking this one out of the park. In just a few days, he reinstated the “Remain in Mexico” policy, designated “certain international cartels” and organizations as foreign terrorist organizations, and suspended the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program. He has even set his sights on birthright citizenship — a route to citizenship that is being used and abused by illegal immigrants.
Meanwhile, Trump has also delivered on his campaign promise to deport illegal immigrants, with hundreds deported this week alone.
In a move unimaginable had Joe Biden or Kamala Harris remained in the White House, Trump even signed an executive order directing authorities to deport non-citizens who bear “hostile attitudes toward its citizens, culture, government, institutions, or founding principles, and do not advocate for, aid, or support designated foreign terrorists and other threats to our national security.”
So far on the subject of immigration, Donald Trump gets an A+.
