Steven Miller is a very scared & sick man. He is an example of Trump’s picking the “best people”.

He and Jared Kushner both really bother me: I think I have an a kind of allergic reaction to their alien DNA.

Jared took over his father's criminal enterprise after daddy was convicted, imprisoned, and banned from taking part in a business. Quite what he's doing with all that money from the Saudis is unclear. I hope that investigations are proceeding. Miller scares me, too.

Oh, that would be in Stephen Miller's pointed little head. They aren't going to tell you unless they win. Then they will drop the hammer, likely on Texas which, as Rupert Chapman points out, is the border state with enough water to pull off a series of concentration camps --other than California, and California is NOT going to do this. California will secede from the Union before it does something like this! BTW, all those Haitians in Springfield, Ohio here HERE LEGALLY.

California, Oregon and Washington should merge to become a "superstate" - Cascadia.

I think Rupert points out that Arizona and New Mexico are very arid near the border, leaving only Texas with enough water to support these concentration camps, which is what they'd be. Also, flying 11 million people overseas is so gargantuan a task I can't even wrap my head around it. And there's no possibility that Mexico will allow a reverse migration even of their own citizens, much less the Central and South Americans to flood across the border, when some of them are 5,000 miles from home--not to mention the Muslims, Asians, and Caribbeans who go first to Brazil or Central American, then across Mexico, and then into the US. ... Meanwhile, the other problem with Mexico is going to be that "remittances" -- money sent by Mexicans working in the United States to family back home -- is the 2nd largest income stream for the entire Mexican economy, the top one being state-owned oil exports. These illegal aliens who work for NOTHING in this country send money back home via Moneygram and American Express (both of which will be unhappy to see this stop!). They are among the most loyal and generous people known to this planet. Mexico does NOT want these people -- mostly men -- coming home. There are no jobs for them in Mexico, and the Mexican economy would take an existential hit if they did. ... The problem, of course, is that so many working age Mexican men in the United States means that there are thousands of villages in Mexico with no males of working age there; there are only boys and very old men. Villages are sometimes defended against cartel encroachment by grandmothers with rifles. It is a terrible, terrible situation, but it's fine with Mexico's corrupt government, which skims off remittances, grifts off migrants coming through from other countries, and allows the cartels to terrorize Mexican citizens. It's estimated that 50% of cartel membership are law enforcement and that cartels have infiltrated national security, internal and external, at every level. If we decide to send 11 million people home, most of them will be Mexican, and Mexico will NOT be pleased. And sending 11 million people home by plane is completely implausible. At an average plane capacity of 200 people for a mid-sized plane, to deport 11 million people would require. 55,000 international flights. Big windfall for the oil companies, bad for the environment, and with an astronomical cost. Such a project would take a decade to complete. It's bullshit.
