20. The guy wants to deport millions of people and he expects foreign nations to take them in?

If it was a few thousand, maybe Bahama would have said yes, but you know it would be at least tens of thousands. A small island nation isn't prepared to accept huge numbers of deportees.

Actually, no country is going to commit to an open ended policy to receive these people. Trump's mouth is making promises that he's not going to be able to fulfill. My concern is for the people his Gestapo agents are going to seize and hold in, what will amount to, concentration camps.
This is not going to end well for all these people who came here to find a better life for themselves and their families, but are going to end up suffering for it.
