I'm guessing it won't stop with undocumented people. Not when there are homeless. And the LGBT+. And non-Christians. And anyone who isn't white.

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.

And anyone who opposes the regime. And anyone who maybe opposes the regime. And anyone who never opposed the regime but got denounced. And so on and so forth. History provides plenty of examples.
No, you're quite right. Once the camps are built, anyone can be thrown in -- and will be. So the point is to get them built under any pretext, and then normalized.
Anyone wondering about why this country needs an outsize 85-acre, $90 million, military-style training camp for police officers that is equipped with all the latest in training and arms, this is why. You don't need paramilitary cops in a democratic society -- but they're a must-have in an autocracy.
This has been in the works for years, long before Trump. There have always been a handful of the ultra rich who want to turn the entire country into the company store. It's finally coming together, and this is how it's done.
Let's not forget we have DNA testing this time around so better hope you don't have "one drop" of degenerate blood.
It's everyone who questions anything, including his brain dead supporters.
Don't forget us Jews. Whenever some wannabe dictator starts talking about the vermin in society, they inevitably wind up attacking Jews.
Oh, and they'll eventually attack Christians as well. They'll decide who is and who isn't Christian enough. Are you Catholic? Sorry, that's not the right form of Christianity. You're Baptist but don't go to church every week? Into the camp you go. You go every week, but your pastor spoke out against Trump? Into the camp for you!
The depressing thing is, you will find a good number of people that will be directly affected by this and who will still vote for Trump, because something something Biden's age.....
Right now it’s all the rage to threaten not voting for Biden because of his handling of the Israel/Hamas conflict.
Idk guys… I wouldn’t recommend it.
No doubt some of that is being pushed by people who want Trump to win. I hate feeling like I don’t have a choice, but that’s kind of where we’re at now: an unhinged, legally cornered, autocratic Trump who is already threatening to turn America into a Christo-fascist dictatorship who will lock up his political enemies & immigrants, and will most likely push for out & out genocide in Palestine, OR an elderly Joe Biden, who has been the only semi-moderating force on Israel thus far (obviously he hasn’t gone far enough and have mostly given faint disapproval), but has otherwise been doing an ok-ish job the past few years (despite what the media says). It’s a shitty choice, but IMO too important to throw my vote away over a single issue.
If you mention Biden being elderly without meaning Trump is basically the same age, or call Biden senile without mentioning that Trump is clearly far worse in that regard, you're carrying water for Trump.
Right now it’s all the rage to threaten not voting for Biden because of his handling of the Israel/Hamas conflict.
So I keep reading on the interwebs.
And the infuriating thing is Trump is only three years younger than Biden!
Buttery males!
Don't forget her emails too...
I think Biden is just barely better than a literal carrot and he's still a better choice. It could be a Weekend at Biden's situation and he's still probably better.
“This vermin must be destroyed. The Jews are our sworn enemies, and at the end of this year there will not be a Jew left in Germany.” — Hitler, 1939
“We will root out the Communists, Marxists … and Radical Left Thugs that live like vermin within … our country.” — Trump, yesterday
You know, I never really considered the vital nature of the second ammendment until I read that. I won't own weapons personally, and I really dislike the idea of any weapon small enough to be concealed or easily used for self injury.
But I know plenty of "radical left" who own firearms, and I'm willing to bet that Trumps version of gestapo will have a very different outcome if he tries it.
For those who believe in reincarnation, Trump was born the year after Hitler died.
He even has a cool new anagram ready: MANGA
The article title misspelled "pogroms" and "concentration camps."
And they'll give it some name like "Project 9066" and think they're so clever while the rest of us scream to our uneducated countrymen that yes, they can be both that evil and that obvious.
I wouldn't be surprised if he mentions gas chambers by year's end.
Bet you he gets the Christianity vote again
Christianity has always been an evil religion.
This country seemingly goes more and more nuts by the day. How embarrassing.
Who's gonna build and maintain these camps? Have you seen the state of white people lately? We couldn't even get enough non-immigrant labor for food, let alone concentration camps. Plus NIMBY already hits hard on facilities that house undesirable populations, you think conservatives want to dedicate land near their own homes for immigrants? They're already busing and flying them away.
All they need to build well is the walls, and all they need to maintain is the locks.
The quality is intentional. They intend to let them die as an example.
E: lot of trump supporters upset to have their plans highlighted, I see
They'd use National Guard.
You know..... he's gonna piss off the farmers who rely on cheap (practically slave) labor form immigrants.
I thought he already did that when they fucked up H1Bs.
Problem is those people are very dumb and will vote for him again even if it hurts them personally.
Oh he did.
he's gonna do it again.
Why they are getting money not to grow
Hey everyone knows the US relationship with internment camps...they're for em!
you've all seen Children of Men right?
best laid plans of mice and men often go awry. his aren't well laid
They're barely plans.
He says this stuff like he wasn't already president. He had 4 years and didn't deport any more annually than Obama.
He had 4 years and didn't deport any more annually than Obama.
I like how this statement makes both of them look bad.
