1. What Trump is doing is ethnic cleansing. I don't know what else to call it.

And we can't forget that the Nazis' "final solution" started out with a plan to deport Jews, not kill them. In 1940 they came up with a proposal to round them up and send them to Madagascar, which at the time was a French colony, and the idea was that France would hand over control of Madagascar to Germany as part of a peace settlement. However, by 1942 due to a British naval blockade the plan could not be carried out and was abandoned. Then they considered deporting Jews to the Soviet Union, but that plan collapsed when they failed to defeat Russian forces. It was only when they no longer had any workable means to deport the Jews that the Nazis decided to move them to concentration camps to exterminate them themselves.

Stephen Miller would do something like this with our immigrants if he could. I no longer have any doubt.
