Aligning with Project 2025 on this point, anyway, Trump's mass deportation plan will simply be the fulfillment of his campaign promise to close America's southern border while restoring law and order to the land.
"American people delivered a resounding victory for President Trump and gave him a mandate to govern as he campaigned, to deliver on the promises that he made, which include, on day one, launching the largest mass deportation operation of illegal immigrants that Kamala Harris has allowed into this country," announced Trump press secretary Karoline Leavitt in an appearance on Fox News Live.
Watch Leavitt speaking to Fox:
“Trump Campaign Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said this morning that Trump will launch the "largest mass deportation operation" of undocumented immigrants on Day 1.”

Trump's share of Latino, black vote increased in 2024
While Trump did not win a majority of either the Latino or the black vote, he did garner more votes from these two groups than the last time he ran.
"Trump didn't win a majority of either group, he won support from about 13% of Black voters nationally and 45% of Latino voters," CNN reported, citing exit polls.
"In the 2020 election, Trump won just 8% of Black voters and 32% of Latinos."
Though small, these increases are significant, especially since Democrats were certain that Latinos in particular would have overwhelmingly voted for Kamala due to Trump's rhetoric about migrants and illegals.
Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe made comments about Puerto Rico at an October 27 Trump rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City that further alienated Hispanic voters.
"There's a lot going on like, I don't know if you guys know this, but there is literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now," Hinchcliffe joked. "Yeah, I think it's called Puerto Rico."
Hinchcliffe also took aim at the black community by making a joke about how many of them love to eat watermelon.
"That's one of my buddies," Hinchcliffe said. "He had a Halloween party last night. We had fun. We carved watermelons together. It was awesome!"
Despite all this, Trump's share of the black and Latino vote increased in 2024, much to the surprise of leftists who were certain he had offended all of them away from the Republican side of the aisle. It turns out that blacks and Latinos are learning that the Democrats do not really support them or their interests after all.
Trump claims he had no knowledge that Hinchcliffe would be doing a stand-up routine at the rally in question, stating that he does not endorse the guy's brand of comedy.
"Tell the illegals if they leave peacefully on their own accord, there will be a possibility they can return," suggested someone on X / Twitter about how the mass deportations might be conducted.
"That's going to crash the economy pretty hard," suggested another about the mass deportations. "People don't think of the ramifications of these types of things. They just assume it will all be 'drug dealers and racists' in accordance with all the rhetoric."
Another celebrated Trump's plans, arguing that illegals have no business being in the U.S. regardless of how much they are supposedly propping up the existing economy.
