Summary

Donald Trump suggested deporting violent repeat American offenders to foreign countries willing to incarcerate them for a small fee.

The proposal, shared at a Republican retreat in Florida, has no legal precedent in the U.S. and would require new legislation.

Critics cite constitutional concerns, including the Eighth Amendment that prohibits “cruel and unusual punishments.”

The idea follows Trump’s broader crackdown on illegal immigration, which a recent poll shows has significant bipartisan support.

    They said Hitler was protected by the devil himself. He survived 42 (or more) assassination plots.

    42 attempts on Hitler, where as he and his Death Cult were responsible for almost 21m murders.

    Trump doesn’t give a damn about the constitution, because the supreme Court will grant him whatever he fucking wants. When he can’t concentrate Jews, people of color, people of non-white descent, political dissenters, LGBTQ+, physically and intellectually disabled, and people who refuse orders to persecute the preceding people in deportation camps, he will cull them.

    42 attempts to reduce 20,900,000 murders? That’s it. A whole fucking war was waged against Nazi Germany, but only 42 attempts to cut the head off the snake.
