Thank you for the reality check. I’ve read a political scientist who said Trump won’t pull this off because he’s too impatient. Nice word for incompetent.
This is all borne out perfectly by Trump's decision over the weekend to stop deporting farmworkers and people in the hospitality sector--which account for a huge number of deportable immigrants. Why? Because agriculture would grind to a halt without undocumented workers (as happened in some fields in California once ICE showed up), and those are Trump's voters and donors. Similarly, many restaurants depend on undocumented people for back of house staff--including Trump's own properties. Once that became clear, the result was inevitable (as anyone who had actually thought about the issue knew it would), he folded.
