Ramaswamy:Trump’s Mass Deportations Plan Is Pragmatic
India-West News Desk
WASHINGTON, DC – On November 10, former presidential candidate and prominent Trump supporter Vivek Ramaswamy endorsed the Trump administration’s proposed mass deportation plan, describing it as a “pragmatic” response that aligns with the views of many Americans. Speaking with ABC’s Jonathan Karl on “This Week,” Ramaswamy argued that the U.S. should prioritize deporting undocumented immigrants with criminal records, which he said would constitute “the largest mass deportation in history.”
When pressed by Karl on Trump’s deportation goals, which range from 11 to 20 million individuals, Ramaswamy refrained from specifying a number but emphasized that undocumented newcomers “have no place” in the U.S.
Ramaswamy also proposed eliminating federal funding for undocumented immigrants, including support for sanctuary cities, predicting that the lack of government subsidies would lead to “millions of self-deportations.” He stressed that the plan respects “the dignity of Americans who are already here” and suggested that the policy could extend to Dreamers.
