The Trump team has already stated they are limiting deportations to criminal illegals, so I guess just people who are in the US illegally and have committed a separate crime. This is before any real opposition has been mounted where it’s expected he’ll cave anyway. Trump is more likely to start a war with Iran than he is to do any sort of mass deportation.

Also a weird thing is happening with automation, it’s getting a lot cheaper, bespoke tooling and machines are going through a substantial revolution. And that is not including any AI stuff. The price of small batch electronics and machines are dropping fast.

> limiting deportations to criminal illegals

That's where they're intending to start (deporting those convicted of, possibly charged with, other crimes). Neither he nor his representatives have said that that's where they'll stop.

I guess we could assume he is pretending to bend towards the middle in order to avoid spooking people prior to consolidating power in the executive, after that he will pivot and cross the Rubicon. But Trump is no FDR so I don’t see him being able to pull that off even if he wanted to.

Aren’t these people being deported already? What’s new about this?

Can you explain more about changes in automation in farming?

The same one Trump promised would be "the largest deportation program in American history"?

We've already had years of the Trumposphere emitting contradictory bullshit, and whenever you are considering an entity that that does not care about truth or honesty or ethics, it's sensible to assume that the outcome will be less than good.
