Trump: I'll Declare National Emergency to Use Military in Mass Deportations

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

66% : Trump reposted Fitton's message with "TRUE!!!
47% : Trump will no doubt welcome that.
43% : Politico offers a skeptical note on that effort, but the media was pretty skeptical about it the first time too:Trump has also said he would restore his Remain in Mexico policy -- officially called Migrant Protection Protocols -- that required some asylum-seekers to stay south of the U.S.-Mexican border while they await immigration court hearings.
39% : The speed at which Trump could remake deportation policy depends on surmounting tactical challenges like expanding detention capacity and cutting through a massive immigration court backlog.
38% : This time, Trump may have friendlier arbiters.
22% : Trump forced Mexico to cooperate by threatening ruinous tariffs on their exports, and that will likely be the same lever he uses this time.
21% : While those legal fights continue, Trump will use DHS resources and authorities to their limit to get as many illegal aliens out of the country as quickly as possible.
20% : Mexico may not even wait for that threat to be made public; they know what's coming, and they're already likely worried about what Trump wants to do in renegotiating the USMCA trade agreement.
18% : Fitton wrote three days after the election that Trump would declare a national emergency over the "Biden invasion" at the southern border in order to use military assets to deport illegal aliens.
18% : Trump will call the mass illegal immigration an "invasion" in any declaration, which is an exception to the PCA in itself.
