5:18Now PlayingDuring a campaign stop in Iowa on Monday, Donald Trump drew wild cheers from the crowd when he suggested that he might kick members of the Biden Administration out of the country if he becomes president again. This was part of his broader promise to engage in mass deportations of immigrants, including resident aliens, but he said he would "look into" whether or not he could actually kick out American citizens. This rhetoric is beyond reprehensible, and is more dangerous than anything we've heard from Trump in the past. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what happened.

At a campaign event in Iowa this week, Donald Trump openly suggested that if he becomes president of the United States again, he is in fact going to begin deporting members of the Biden administration. He actually suggested that he would look into figuring out how he could deport American citizens just because he disagrees with them politically. And of course, when he said this, the crowd went wild. But let me read you this full thing that he said. It, it's, it's long, but I want to give you the full context of it. 'cause he did begin by basically talking about having these mass deportations of migrants, immigrants, you know, people, uh, uh, coming into this country. Here's what he said. You know, Dwight Eisenhower, if you feel better about this, because people don't consider him that tough a guy, but he was actually a very good president, good general, very good general, but he became president and he was a very big person on deportation.
He deported more than anybody else. He said, they cannot be here. You have to come into our country legally. That's what I say. You have to come into our country legally, and you have to love our country. You can't hate our country. Now, let me actually stop right there, because the people that were coming into the country legally during the Trump administration were people seeking asylum that is legal. You are legally allowed to come into this country seeking asylum. What did he do with them? Well, we know he threw 'em in cages. He had the family separation policy that the government actually this week settled a massive lawsuit, uh, with the victims of the family separation policy. They tortured these people psychologically and according to the reports, quite, quite literally, physically. And these were people who came into the country legally. So don't buy that BS when Trump says, well, we're fine with the people who come here legally.
No, you're not. Because if it's not somebody with skin as pale as mine, you don't want him in this country. That's what this is about. He continued. If you empathize with radical Islamic terrorists and extremists, you're disqualified. You're just disqualified. If you wanna abolish the state of Israel, you're disqualified. If you support Hamas or any idea ideology that's having to do with that, or any of the other really sick thoughts that go through people's minds, very dangerous thoughts. You're disqualified. If you're a communist, a Marxist, or a fascist, other than the people that are already here, of which many are in the Biden administration, you're disqualified like to get them out too. Maybe we'll work on that and the crowd went wild. In addition, we will aggressively deport resident aliens with jihadist sympathies. We have to. This isn't like being Mr. Nice guy. We have to, oh, we're going to have a country that's going to be blown to shreds. He suggested
We'll look into that about deporting the communist, the fascist, and the Marxist three ideas that cannot coexist together in an ideology, by the way, uh, from the Biden administration. Now, I wish I could say this is hyperbole, right? I mean, that's what we want to think it is. Like he's not actually gonna do that, right? Just like he wouldn't actually try to overturn the results of a democratic election here in the country, right?
